Packers rookie MarShawn Lloyd's status in jeopardy amid appendicitis diagnosis

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd has had a rookie season marred by injury. Heading into Week 11, Lloyd has suffered another worrying setback.

The running back is dealing with appendicitis and missed Friday's practice, via team reporter Wes Hodkiewicz. Head coach Matt LaFleur will have a further update once Lloyd undergoes treatment.

“Unfortunately, he has appendicitis,” LaFleur said of Lloyd. “It's a shame because he was making progress.”

Lloyd was placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury. Then, he picked up a hamstring ailment. He seemed to be on the path back to playing, getting in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday.
