Packers running back AJ Dillon resumes practicing after lengthy stint on COVID-19 list

GREEN BAY - After spending more than five weeks on reserve/COVID-19, Green Bay Packers rookie running back AJ Dillon returned to practice Thursday and has been removed from the list.

Dillon was placed on the reserve list Nov. 2, which was the Monday after the Packers’ Week 8 game against the Minnesota Vikings. Thursday marked Dillon’s first official practice since the team’s preparation for the Vikings.

“Happy to be back out there,” Dillon wrote on Twitter after practice. “Remember Covid hits everyone differently! I’ll be the posterboy for it’s no joke! I appreciate all the support throughout the process.
