MarShawn Lloyd DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Green Bay Packers rookie MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) said he suffered a sprained ankle in his NFL debut in the Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Lloyd is walking fine but called himself day-to-day. The 23-year-old has already dealt with three different injuries since training camp that have limited his on-field abilities early in his first year in the NFL. His injury doesn't sound too serious, but it also doesn't mean that Lloyd will be a lock to play in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans. The third-round selection has a great opportunity to be Green Bay's No. 2 RB behind Josh Jacobs with AJ Dillon (neck) out for the year, but injuries have held him back so far. If Lloyd is limited or out this weekend, Emanuel Wilson will be Jacobs' backup again in Week 3. Lloyd saw six carries and gained 15 yards on the ground while catching one pass for a three-yard gain in his NFL debut on Sunday.

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts and is officially questionable to return. He was making his NFL debut this week after missing Week 1 with a hamstring injury. At the time of his departure, he had 15 rushing yards and three receiving yards. Emanuel Wilson will serve as the primary backup to Josh Jacobs for the duration of Lloyd's absence.

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction throughout the weekend. As Lloyd makes his NFL debut, he could steal some touches from backup Emanuel Wilson. Both backs are expected to touch the ball Sunday despite operating behind Josh Jacobs. In fact, Green Bay could have a heavy dependence on its rushing attack with Malik Willis starting in place of the injured Jordan Love (knee). If the Packers want to keep the clock ticking and reduce the chances of a Willis turnover, we could see a lot of opportunities for Jacobs with Lloyd and Wilson each getting at least a handful of touches, too. Still, Lloyd is not an appealing redraft option and can be left on the bench in most dynasty leagues, too.

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is currently listed as questionable ahead of the Week 2 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Despite that, Lloyd is expected to suit up and make his NFL debut. This same hamstring issue held him out during the season opener, but it appears Lloyd is feeling better now. He figures to serve as the primary backup to Josh Jacobs. His workload is unknown, but he should at least be involved in the rushing attack. The rookie back isn't worth starting while Jacobs is healthy, but he should be rostered in all dynasty leagues and stashed in deep leagues.

Green Bay Packers rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's match against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie running back suffered a hamstring injury in August and was held out of the season opener out of precaution. Throughout the week, the USC product has logged three straight limited practice sessions, which is an improvement over the previous week, where he was only able to practice in a limited capacity twice. Lloyd could be setting himself up to make his professional debut this weekend. If he does, fantasy managers should expect him to serve as the No.2 running back behind Josh Jacobs. As the season progresses, he could eventually grow into a more prominent role and is worth stashing on your bench.
