Who Should I Start? MarShawn Lloyd or Keaton Mitchell

Green Bay Packers running backs MarShawn Lloyd (groin) and Emanuel Wilson (knee) were both back at Monday's training camp practice, according to Packers beat writer Mike Spofford. It's good news for Green Bay's backfield heading into Week 2 of the preseason. Lloyd, who played in just one game in his rookie season in 2024 due to injuries, missed the last couple weeks at camp with a non-contact groin injury, but now he's back on the field and should play in the second preseason game this Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts as he looks to secure the RB2 role behind starter Josh Jacobs. Lloyd will be competing with both Wilson and Chris Brooks for change-of-pace work in his second NFL season, and although he's proven to be very injury-prone early in his career, he's still the most intriguing RB in Green Bay behind Jacobs with lots of big-play ability.

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell (undisclosed) missed the team's practice on Saturday due to an undisclosed injury. However, head coach John Harbaugh said it's not a major ailment for the third-year back, according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Mitchell shined in Baltimore's first preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday, rushing for 68 yards and a touchdown on nine carries. He missed most of the 2024 season while recovering from a torn ACL, earning just 15 total carries in five games played. Mitchell enters 2025 competing with veteran Justice Hill and fifth-round rookie Rasheen Ali for backup work behind Derrick Henry in the Ravens' backfield.
