A.J. Dillon’s season is over.

The Green Bay Packers placed the running back on injured reserve on Tuesday, ending his 2024 season before it could begin.

Dillon missed the final three games of last season after he sustained a neck injury. While he recovered from that stinger this offseason, Dillon went down with a similar neck injury during the Packers' joint practice with the Denver Broncos last week. He said last week while waiting for more tests that the injury felt different than the one he sustained last season.

“I’ve had stingers in the past before the end of last year,” Dillon said, via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
