The Green Bay Packers need running back A.J. Dillon to rebound from a somewhat disappointing third season in 2022 and regain the all-around efficiency that made him one of the NFL’s most valuable No. 2 backs and could secure his future in Green Bay long-term.
During his first two seasons, Dillon averaged 4.5 yards per carry and caught 92.3 percent of his targets. Last season, Dillon’s average per carry dropped to 4.1 and he caught only 65.3 percent of his targets, resulting in him gaining almost 150 fewer yards in 2022 despite receiving nearly the same amount of touches in 2023.
