they'll be relying on backup RB MarShawn Lloyd, who's played all of just 10 regular-season snaps in his three-year NFL career thus far.

Lloyd gets lead-back opportunity; Packers shifting to zone-run scheme for his style.

RB MarShawn Lloyd, a former third-round pick by the Packers in 2024, is now the apparent lead back after Josh Jacobs was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt list; despite having played only 10 regular-season snaps in his three-year NFL career and suffering from unfortunate injuries early in his career, Lloyd now has an opportunity at redemption. His different rushing style will invite changes to the offensive scheme, with the Packers leaning into the outside/mid zone scheme more heavily, transitioning back to what the offense looked like in earlier LaFleur years.
