Should I Start MarShawn Lloyd?

Wednesday, May 27, 12:36 PM

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd is taking part in his team's OTAs, per Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. The 25-year-old spent the entirety of the 2025 season on Injured Reserve due to hamstring and calf injuries, but he appears to be healthy and ready to go heading into 2026. Injuries have been a major issue for Lloyd since the Packers selected him in the third round of the NFL Draft, as he's played in just one game for the team over the first two seasons of his career. Still, he could be in line for a prominent role in Green Bay in 2026 with Packers RB1 Josh Jacobs currently embroiled in legal issues. Even if Jacobs ultimately avoids missed time, Lloyd could beat out fellow Packers back Chris Brooks for the team's primary backup role with a strong performance in training camp and a healthy preseason.
