Pierre Strong Jr.: Pierre Strong Jr. Could Be In Line for Sizable Role with Packers

Green Bay Packers running back Pierre Strong Jr. could potentially see an uptick in his usage following a broken finger injury to starting running back Josh Jacobs. Strong led Green Bay's backfield in snaps played (30) in a 45-27 win over the New England Patriots in Week 9. Strong rushed eight times for 22 yards (2.8 yards per carry) and recorded two receptions for 11 yards (5.5 yards per reception). However, Strong was out-touched 14-to-10 by fellow tailback Kaleb Johnson, and Johnson was the preferred ball carrier with 14 carries for 68 yards (4.9 yards per carry) and a touchdown against the Patriots. With that said, Strong appeared to be favored on passing downs, as he was in on 15 passing plays compared to eight for Johnson, according to Pro Football Focus. Jacobs is expected to miss at least two to three weeks after breaking his right ring finger. Meanwhile, running back MarShawn Lloyd (knee) missed the game against the Patriots, but returned to practice on Wednesday without an injury designation ahead of a Week 10 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. Fellow tailback Chris Brooks (ankle) remains on injured reserve, but is designated to return, and he was a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Still, Strong should continue to see reps for the Packers with Jacobs out.
