The Green Bay Packers already have one of the best running backs in the league in Josh Jacobs. That being said, it can never hurt to have a good backup. 2024 draft pick MarShawn Lloyd was supposed to be the insurance policy for Jacobs last season, but injuries limited his time on the field.
During the preseason, Lloyd was able to show off his abilities, potentially adding another weapon for Jordan Love. However, the second-year RB left in the middle of their preseason game due to a groin injury. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur was asked after the game about Lloyd's status and whether he'll be able to return soon.
