A back like MarShawn Lloyd, who is more athletic and has better acceleration than Jacobs, could be better suited for an outside zone-heavy running game... the distribution of carries between Jacobs and Lloyd both end up tracking closely with the lineup on the interior of the offensive line

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Lloyd's athleticism fits potential Packers shift to outside zone run game.

Backup running back with more athletic profile and better acceleration than starter Josh Jacobs; better suited for an outside zone-heavy running game, which would align with the Packers' apparent shift toward more athletic interior linemen like Burton and Monk. If the Packers transition away from Jacobs, Lloyd could see increased carry distribution that tracks closely with the composition of the interior offensive line.
