Lloyd Ready to Step Up for Packers

With Josh Jacobs placed on paid leave by the NFL, MarShawn Lloyd steps into the role as the Packers' No. 1 running back. The 2024 third-round pick has been hampered by injuries, playing in just one game over the past two seasons, but says he's ready for whatever workload Green Bay gives him.

'I'm ready to play as much as they want me to play,' Lloyd stated. 'I'm excited. It's a dream come true playing for the Packers, so however much carries I get, however much they put me in the game, I'm ready to go.' The Packers will need Lloyd to be healthy and productive for their offense to perform at a high level early in the season. palladian.co.za
