Speaking of Jayden Reed, the third-year wideout could return to practice on Wednesday after his two-and-a-half-month absence.

The story said HC Matt LaFleur was asked Monday if the Packers will open the 21-day practice windows for any players this week and the head coach flashed a massive smile while saying, “I sure as heck hope so.” According to the story, LaFleur added that the team will have a better idea about the availability of Reed, and running back Lloyd, over the next two days. The return of Reed could be a big deal for the Packers offense, especially after losing TE Tucker Kraft. The return of Reed would create a logjam of healthy WRs in Green Bay.

Packers standout RB Josh Jacobs’ knee is structurally sound.

Good news for the Packers and Jacobs' fantasy owners. Rapoport went on to say Jacobs is considered day to day, and that tag gives him a shot to suit up in Week 12. But, Rapoport added in his post Jacobs could end up missing Week 12's game against the Vikings. The good news is no surgery is needed. We'll keep an eye on the injury report this week, but the Vikings-Packers game is an early Sunday game which should give owners time to adjust lineups if he's a game-time call. Wilson should get a bulk of the workload if Jacobs can't play. Brooks has seen limited time this season while Lloyd has been questionable to play that past three weeks with a hamstring injury, but has yet to play and see a snap this season.

LaFleur on if MarShawn Lloyd (IR-DTR) will be back anytime soon: "I wouldn't count on that, anytime soon."

Dontayvion Wicks won't practice today.

Looks like Wicks is in jeopardy of missing his second-straight game, while the injury bug won't be leaving Lloyd, who has hardly seen an NFL field since going in the third round of the 2024 Draft. Neither significantly impacts the rest of the Packers' fantasy options.

Dontayvion Wicks is not practicing today. Neither, as expected, is MarShawn Lloyd.

Per Schneidman, HC Matt LaFleur said that it was a pre-contact injury that occurred before a jarring hit. Lloyd logged all of six rush attempts as a third-round rookie last year as he battled a litany of injuries. Things are starting off poorly for the potential RB2 option behind Jacobs, and he should be avoided in drafts until we get a clean bill of health.

Packers running back Marshawn Lloyd came down with appendicitis last week after the club opened his 21-day practice window.

Green Bay has now made a roster move with him, activating him off of injured reserve.

The story said that does not mean Lloyd, a rookie third-round pick, is going to be ready to play soon. He could be placed on the non-football injury list to recover from his appendectomy. Head coach Matt LaFleur has not given a timetable for Lloyd’s potential return, according to the story added.

Packers are placing rookie RB MarShawn Lloyd on injured reserve due to an ankle injury.

Lloyd dealt with a hamstring injury leading up to the season and has now injured his ankle enough to be placed on IR, and he'll miss the next four games. The team did sign Brooks from their practice squad but Wilson looks to be the backup to Jacobs.

Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd did not practice on Tuesday after working earlier in the week, but head coach Matt LaFleur said that it wasn’t because of a setback with his hamstring injury.

LaFleur said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, that Lloyd had “two good days” and that the day off was part of the process of getting the third-round pick back to full speed ahead of Friday’s game against the Eagles. Lloyd would be a risky play even if he's active. Jacobs is the clear starter, but the team may go with Wilson as the RB2 depending how Lloyd does leading up to Friday night.

Running back A.J. Dillon was placed on injured reserve and was not designated to return, meaning he is done for the year.

Dillon recently suffered another stinger and last week said he was awaiting test results. Head coach Matt LaFleur had said “absolutely there’s a concern” with Dillon’s injury, noting that Green Bay would proceed cautiously.

Dillon, 26, was expected to be the primary backup to running back Jacobs, and the team recently announced the rookie Lloyd will start the season on the PUP list and miss the first four games of the season at least. Wilson and Merriweather are now behind Jacobs, but it's possible the Packers will have to make a move at the position at least until Lloyd comes back.

Marshawn Lloyd is expected to start the season on IR -- they can do that now without missing 2024.

Lloyd is a rookie who injured his hamstring in the first preseason game. He was expected to slide right into the team's RB2 role behind Jacobs. But, that role looks like it now goes back to Dillon, who was unimpressive last year behind Aaron Jones. Lloyd will miss the first four games of the season.

The injury is not considered serious and he's expected to be fine for the season. However, we all know hamstring injuries can be tricky, so the team will be cautious with him, the post said. His time missed could set him back a bit on the depth chart, possibly making Dillon the RB2 to open the season behind Jacobs. Given Dillon's struggles last season, though, many feel Lloyd has a chance to earn the RB2 job at some point.
