Who Should I Start? MarShawn Lloyd or Jaylen Wright

The Green Bay Packers sent running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) "out west" to get his body right, according to head coach Matt LaFleur, and the results have been promising. "We'll see," LaFleur said. The Packers said at the end of October that the 24-year-old was not close to returning to practice. It remains to be seen if the second-year RB will be able to get back on the field, but so far, he has spent the entire 2025 season on Injured Reserve due to a hamstring injury. The Packers had high hopes for Lloyd when they drafted him, but he has only played in one game so far in his NFL career. Josh Jacobs is the clear bell-cow back in Green Bay's backfield, with Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks backing him up. If Lloyd does finally make his way back in the second half of the season, there's no guarantee he'll rise above the RB4 for the Packers.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright has hardly gotten any playing time this season, but with Ollie Gordon II (ankle) questionable for Week 10, it could be time for Wright to finally re-enter the rotation. Wright didn't have any carries or catches all season until Week 8, when he had nine carries for 28 yards and a reception for no receiving yards against the Falcons. Last Thursday in Week 9, he was back out of the rotation as a healthy inactive against the Ravens. Last year, the fourth-rounder had 249 yards on his 68 carries, but this year, he hasn't been able to crack the rotation. If Gordon is out or limited, he could get a few carries against Buffalo, but he's not much of a fantasy option at this point, since he's still just the RB78 in RotoBaller's Week 10 rankings.
