Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Tallies seven touches
Wilson had six carries for 16 yards and one reception for one yard in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Panthers.
Wilson played roughly a third of Green Bay's offensive snaps for the third straight week, but in a more competitive contest in which the Packers relied more on starter Josh Jacobs, Wilson received half as many touches as he did in Week 8. He was still far more involved than fellow reserve Chris Brooks and remains the No. 2 option in Green Bay's backfield.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Changes pace successfully Sunday
Wilson rushed 11 times for 61 yards while catching three of four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 35-25 win over the Steelers.
Starter Josh Jacobs struggled on Sunday Night Football (13-33-1), affording Wilson extra opportunities in his usual change-of-pace role. The 26-year-old Wilson registered a season-high 87 yards from scrimmage while leading the Packers in rushing production. Wilson was averaging 4.8 combined touches over his previous six appearances, so Sunday's increased usage should be considered an aberration as opposed to a sign of things to come against the Panthers next Sunday.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Workload remains minimal
Wilson had six carries for 17 yards and one reception for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.
A trendy late pickup with starting running back Josh Jacobs uncertain for Week 7 due to an illness and calf injury, Wilson played a season-high 34 percent of the snaps as Green Bay's starter saw a lighter load than usual. However, Jacobs still got the bulk of the touches and scored both of the Packers' rushing touchdowns on the day. Wilson remains merely an insurance policy in case Jacobs sustains any sort of setback.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Four touches in win
Wilson rushed three times for 11 yards and caught his lone target for minus-four yards in Sunday's 27-18 win over the Bengals.
Wilson continued to operate as the primary backup to Josh Jacobs in Week 6. The 26-year-old running back played just 11 of the Packers' 61 offensive snaps Sunday, while Jacobs handled 48 snaps. Barring an injury to Jacobs, Wilson remains far off the fantasy radar as anything more than an insurance policy. The Fort Valley State University product will have his next chance to spell Jacobs out of the backfield in Week 7 when the Packers visit the Cardinals.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Racks up 11 touches
Wilson had eight carries for 44 yards and three receptions for 37 yards in Sunday's 40-40 tie with the Cowboys.
Wilson racked up only 29 yards from scrimmage over the first three weeks, but he nearly matched that mark on a 25-yard reception in Week 4 and finished the night with a total of 81 yards. Wilson played behind Chris Books -- and of course, starter Josh Jacobs -- early in the season, but after racking up 17 touches over the last two weeks he heads into Green Bay's Week 5 bye as the clear No. 2 option in the backfield.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Racks up six carries
Wilson had six carries for 25 yards in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns.
Wilson was limited to one carry and 12 snaps over the first two weeks of the season, but he spelled starter Josh Jacobs a bit more in Week 3 and ran the ball effectively. Fellow reserve Chris Brooks saw some action as well, and both will continue working behind Jacobs in some fashion. However, Wilson's usage signals that he, rather than Brooks, would be the primary ball carrier if Jacobs were unavailable for any reason.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Works behind Brooks again
Wilson didn't record a carry or target and had a 27-yard kickoff return in Thursday's 27-18 win over the Commanders.
Wilson played just five snaps on offense, giving him seven through two weeks compared to Chris Brooks' 22 over that span. With Josh Jacobs seeing the vast majority of opportunities in Green Bay's backfield and Brooks next in line during MarShawn Lloyd's (hamstring) stint on IR, Wilson appears unlikely to contribute much this season.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Limited to two snaps
Wilson had one carry for four yards in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
With starting running back Josh Jacobs handling the bulk of the work in Green Bay's backfield, Wilson was on the field for only two plays Sunday, but he was handed the football on one of them. Wilson is averaging 5.0 YPC across 118 career attempts, so -- depending on the status of MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) he could be next up for carries if Jacobs were to go down. However, fellow running back Chris Brooks -- who played nine snaps Sunday -- is more effective as a pass catcher and blocker, so as long as Jacobs is out there it seems likely Wilson will operate as the third running back.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Rotates with Brooks
Wilson rushed the ball eight times for 38 yards in Saturday's 20-7 preseason win over the Seahawks.
Wilson was interestingly the third back into the game for the Packers, behind both Josh Jacobs and Chris Brooks. Wilson also played later into the game relative to Brooks, despite being more efficient with his carries. That suggests Wilson could be as low as No. 4 on the running back depth chart to begin the regular season, depending on the status of MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring).

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Highly efficient with six touches
Wilson rushed five times for 33 yards and brought in one of two targets for 32 yards in the Packers' 23-19 preseason win over the Colts on Saturday afternoon. He also lost a fumble.
Wilson remains locked in a battle for the No. 2 running back job with MarShawn Lloyd, and the former was clearly the more efficient of the two on the ground Saturday. Wilson entered the game after Lloyd and took his first carry with 14:40 remaining in the first half, going on to record his 32-yard reception two plays later and eventually ripping off nine- and 11-yard runs. However, Wilson also short-circuited the second possession he was in on with a lost fumble at the Packers' 38-yard line, setting up a Colts field goal. Wilson has never lost a fumble across 152 regular-season touches in his first two seasons, however, so the miscue shouldn't affect him in the job battle with one preseason game still remaining.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Returns to practice Monday
Wilson (knee) is participating in practice Monday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wilson and fellow backup running back MarShawn Lloyd (groin) are both back at practice Monday after having missed Green Bay's preseason opener against the Jets. The two are competing for backfield standing behind workhorse starter Josh Jacobs, with Chris Brooks also in the mix as a reserve option. Wilson could get a chance to log exhibition action on the road against the Colts on Saturday.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Dealing with knee issue
Wilson tweaked his knee at practice Friday but isn't expected to miss much time, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Wilson departed practice early and limped slightly as he left the field, but it doesn't appear that he's dealing with anything major, as Huber notes there is "no damage" in Wilson's knee. That's good news for the 26-year-old, as he's trying to earn the No. 2 role in Green Bay's backfield behind Josh Jacobs.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Exits practice with injury
Wilson left Friday's practice early with an apparent injury, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Wilson reportedly walked off the field under his own power with a slight limp, after trainers attended to him on the field. He's trying to lock down the No. 2 RB role he held for nearly all of last season -- an endeavor aided by MarShawn Lloyd's recent groin injury. With Wilson and Lloyd both sidelined, Chris Brooks seemingly slots in behind Josh Jacobs for now.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Re-signs with Packers
Wilson signed his exclusive rights free-agent tender with the Packers on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Wilson carried the ball 103 times for 502 yards and four touchdowns in addition to catching 11 passes for 48 yards and one touchdown last season with Green Bay. The 25-year-old will compete with MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) for backup touches behind Josh Jacobs in 2025.

Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Four touches in wild-card loss
Wilson rushed three times for six yards and caught one of three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 22-10 wild-card loss to the Eagles.
Wilson was mostly an afterthought Sunday, as his six rushing yards counted for his lowest rushing total since Week 15. The 25-year-old running back played just 11 of the Packers' 66 offensive snaps in the contest, behind fellow running backs Josh Jacobs (41) and Chris Brooks (16). Wilson finished the 2024 regular season with 103 carries for 502 yards and four touchdowns, adding 11 receptions for 48 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets. Wilson proved to be a solid depth option for Green Bay this season, but he'll enter this offseason as an exclusive rights free agent. If the Packers make Wilson a qualifying offer, he'll be back with the team in 2025. If not, the Fort Valley State University product will be able to sign with any other team ahead of next season.
