The Green Bay Packers have placed RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) on injured reserve, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd sustained a groin injury in practice on Monday. We’ll wait to hear on the severity, but as beat writer Ryan Wood noted on X, Lloyd also dealt with a groin injury in 2024. The second-year pro is in a battle for Green Bay’s No. 2 RB job behind Josh Jacobs.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd has no limitations at the start of voluntary offseason work. A variety of injuries (ankle, hamstring, appendicitis) limited him to one game and six carries as a Round 3 rookie.

The Packers are expected to play their starters in Sunday's game against the Bears. They can move up from the No. 7 seed to the No. 6 seed with a win coupled with a Commanders loss. But RB Josh Jacobs admitted Thursday that he doesn't expect to handle his usual workload. "Just being honest, being realistic, I don't see me taking that many carries in this game," Jacobs said. "Obviously, I want to play. I'm going to push to play, and I'm playing. But I don't see myself taking 30 carries." Jacobs gets a Chicago defense sitting 25th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs, so even 12-15 carries could result in a strong fantasy outing. But there's no guarantee he even gets that much work. Jacobs is a risky Week 18 fantasy play.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs got his final carry early in third quarter of Monday night's win over the Saints. He didn't get hurt. Green Bay simply didn't need him beyond that.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) is expected to be designated to return and practice this week, according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. Lloyd has been dealing with injuries since the summer and has played just 10 snaps so far this season. If the rookie can get and stay healthy, he still has a chance to ascend to the No. 2 spot on Green Bay's depth chart, but he has work to do to get there. For now, Lloyd is only worth stashing in deep fantasy leagues.
