Packers HC Matt LaFleur said Saturday that RBs MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) and A.J. Dillon (stinger) are "TBD" for Week 1.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Lloyd has missed most of August with hip and hamstring injuries. He remains an upside bench stash but will not be an early-season fantasy factor.

Dillon suffered his stinger this past week and has been sidelined since. He was in line to open the season as Green Bay's No. 2 RB, but his status is now murky.

With Lloyd and Dillon hurt, the Packers figure to keep RB Emanuel Wilson on the initial 53-man roster. But the big fantasy takeaway here is that RB Josh Jacobs might see workhorse volume early on this season.
