Who Should I Start? MarShawn Lloyd or Bhayshul Tuten

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) appears to be ramping up his rehab, ESPN's Rob Demovsky reported last week. Lloyd has not returned to practice with the rest of the team yet, but he was seen working up a sweat on a side field last week. The Packers could really use Lloyd right now after Josh Jacobs suffered a knee injury in Sunday's win that could keep him from playing in Week 12 against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings. The 24-year-old Lloyd remains on Injured Reserve, though, and has played in one game for the Packers due to injuries since he was taken in the third round of the 2024 NFL draft. Green Bay is still holding out hope that he can contribute later this year, but it remains to be seen if that will actually happen. If Jacobs misses any time, Emanuel Wilson should operate as the team's clear lead back.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) exited during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers with an injury, as the Jaguars went on to dominate the Chargers 35-6. A large part of their dominance was mainly due to the offensive line, Travis Etienne, Tuten, and the Jaguars' defense. At the time of his departure, he was having a career day, rushing for a career high 74 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown on 15 carries. Backfield mate, ETN, also rushed for 73 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries. According to Jamal St. Cyr, Storts Anchor for News4JAX, when asked about his ankle, Tuten said, "It's good," which is a good sign for his availability heading into Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Tuten was involved fairly early in this contest, and his 15 carries were not due to the game being out of hand. He was clearly splitting touches with ETN early in the game, and it's something to monitor moving forward. Regardless, Tuten becomes a must-add in all formats based on his volume on Sunday, and immediately enters the RB3 conversation, especially if we can expect 8-12 carries from him.
