Green Bay Packers fans should breathe a sigh of relief after recent roster cuts and injuries. After missing the end of training camp, Packers rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd will open next season on the 53-man roster, avoiding the injury reserve. He will most likely play in Brazil on September 6 instead of missing the first four games of the 2024 season. Likewise, he can ramp up and build a solid foundation toward seeing game action.

The media caught up to Lloyd after he sat out the Packers' preseason finale against the Baltimore Ravens.
