AJ Dillon & Kamal Martin both fighting for big roles in 2020

Having used a second-round pick on Boston College running back AJ Dillon and a fifth-round selection on Minnesota linebacker Kamal Martin, the Green Bay Packers had important roles in mind for each of these players. And while Aaron Jones and Christian Kirksey are the incumbent starters at both running back and linebacker, it is still (in all likelihood) very possible that both Dillon and Martin will have big roles this season.

Dillon, who has had an offseason filled with publicity about his massive legs, was known as more of just a rushing threat at BC, where opposing teams regularly just loaded boxes against him and he still put up eye-opening numbers.
