MarShawn Lloyd Participating in Packers OTAs

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.

Keaton Mitchell News

Keaton Mitchell's Dynasty Value Rising Heading into 2026

Thursday, April 30, 8:59 AM

After spending the first three seasons of his career with the Baltimore Ravens, running back Keaton Mitchell landed a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Chargers earlier this offseason. Mitchell's playing time in Baltimore was limited by injury issues and the presence of star Ravens running back Derrick Henry. However, Mitchell has averaged a highly efficient 6.8 yards per touch across a limited sample size of 140 career touches. 2025 first-round running back Omarion Hampton profiles as the clear RB1 in Los Angeles ahead of Mitchell. Still, Mitchell should have a chance to carve out a consistent RB2 and pass-catching role behind Hampton. He also has the benefit of working with new Chargers play-caller Mike McDaniel, who has proven the ability to produce offenses with multiple fantasy-relevant running backs during his time as the head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Dynasty managers should approach Mitchell with cautious optimism following his offseason move to Los Angeles.
