GREEN BAY, Wis. – Rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd has been designated to return from injured reserve, meaning the Green Bay Packers could soon add an explosive element to their offense.
They’d also have a crowded backfield.
Josh Jacobs ranks among the NFL leaders in rushing, yards per carry and yards after contact. He has been everything the Packers hoped he’d be when they signed him in free agency.
Emanuel Wilson shared carries with Jacobs for a big chunk of the first half of the season. He is averaging 4.6 yards per carry.
When Lloyd went on injured reserve, Chris Brooks was promoted from the practice squad.
