From the article

Kaleb Johnson: 9... Pretty early on, it was obvious that not only was MarShawn Lloyd going to out-snap Kaleb Johnson, who led the Packers in rushing last week, but that Pierre Strong Jr., fresh off his practice squad promotion, also displaced Johnson... Most of Johnson's action came late in the game in garbage time. He did not play a single snap in the first half.

Johnson benched in first half, displaced by Lloyd and Strong Jr. in snap rotation

Johnson saw a dramatic snap count decline in Week 5, dropping from leading the Packers in rushing the prior week to just 9 snaps (compared to MarShawn Lloyd's 26 and Pierre Strong Jr.'s 24). Most of his action came late in garbage time; he did not play a single snap in the first half. The source notes that with Josh Jacobs and Chris Brooks set to return, the Packers face a roster crunch that will likely result in cuts among their running back group.
