Green Bay Packers third-round pick running back MarShawn Lloyd went down in the Packers’ preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns after just a single carry. According to Lloyd, he has been pushing through a previously unreported hamstring injury — after already missing time with a hip injury in training camp — which he reaggravated on Saturday.
Per the many doctors-turned-fantasy football analysts on social media, a grade 1 hamstring strain would put Lloyd’s return to the field right around the start of the regular season. When reporters tried to pick head coach Matt LaFleur’s brain for an answer to how serious Lloyd’s injury is, he didn’t budge on Tuesday — the day the Packers returned to practice after their preseason opener.
