• Packers' MarShawn Lloyd: Eight touches in Jacobs' return

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Lloyd tallied six carries for 20 yards and two catches (on two targets) for 15 yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss in Detroit. The Packers got top RB Josh Jacobs back in the lineup for the first time this season after he spent the first six contests on the commissioner's exempt list. However, he wasn't able to provide a jolt to a moribund ground game, as the team averaged just 3.2 YPC on its 19 rushes. On a positive note for Lloyd, though, he was the only Green Bay running back other than Jacobs to earn a touch, as an active Pierre Strong did not, and Kaleb Johnson (coach's decision) was a healthy scratch. Lloyd appears set to serve as the team's No. 2 backfield option moving forward, which should provide him regular reps with which to work behind Jacobs.

• Packers' MarShawn Lloyd: Eight carries in victory

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Lloyd rushed eight times for 10 yards while failing to catch his only target during Sunday night's 23-13 win over Dallas. Lloyd was rather inefficient in Week 6, averaging 1.3 yards per carry while logging three fewer carries than fellow running back Pierre Strong (11). Lloyd was briefly sidelined by an undisclosed injury during the contest, but his ability to finish the game would suggest that whatever he was dealing with is minor. With Josh Jacobs (personal) expected to be removed from the Commissioner's Exempt List on Monday, Lloyd will likely transition into a complementary role behind Jacobs in the backfield moving forward.

• Packers' MarShawn Lloyd: Sleeper RBs

  11D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Lloyd had the best Fantasy game of his career in Week 5 against Chicago with 10 carries for 31 yards and two touchdowns and one catch for 6 yards on two targets. It was the first game with Christopher Brooks (ankle) on injured reserve, and Lloyd led the Packers in snaps (44 percent), which will hopefully continue in Week 6 against Dallas. The Cowboys are No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and five guys (Cam Skattebo, Devin Singletary, Rachaad White, Derrick Henry and Bucky Irving) have scored at least 13.8 PPR points against Dallas. I like Lloyd as a No. 2 Fantasy running back in all leagues.

• Packers' MarShawn Lloyd: Week 6 Waiver Priority List

  15D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  In the first game with Christopher Brooks (ankle) on injured reserve in Week 5 against Chicago, Lloyd led the Packers in snaps (44 percent) and had his best Fantasy game of the season with 16.7 PPR points. He had 10 carries for 31 yards and two touchdowns and one catch for 6 yards on two targets. He's still sharing with Kaleb Johnson and Pierre Strong, but Lloyd also gets an easy matchup in Week 6 against Dallas. The Cowboys are No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and Lloyd should be considered a flex option in all leagues in that game. He's worth adding for up to 10 percent of your remaining FAAB.
