Who Should I Start? MarShawn Lloyd or Kendre Miller

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd is expected to make his preseason debut Sunday against the Colts. The 2024 rookie appeared in just one game before suffering an ankle injury and later required an emergency appendectomy that ended his season. Lloyd enters 2025 healthy and projects as the primary change-of-pace option behind starter Josh Jacobs. For fantasy purposes, Lloyd is an intriguing handcuff with upside, particularly in deeper formats. If Jacobs were to miss time, Lloyd's explosiveness and versatility could give him immediate flex appeal.

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller carried the ball six times for 15 yards and caught his lone target for a nine-yard gain in a 27-13 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. With Alvin Kamara resting, Miller got the start and handled the first two touches of the game for the Saints. It was an underwhelming performance for the third-year runner, who posted a long run of eight yards but didn't do much else in the loss. The talented running back is looking to break camp as the primary backup to Kamara after an injury-filled first two seasons in the league. If he wins the RB2 role in New Orleans, Miller would be a solid handcuff option to Kamara in deeper fantasy leagues. Miller's next preseason game comes on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
