The Packers are preparing for a potential suspension for Josh Jacobs, and that makes MarShawn Lloyd one of the most intriguing late round contingency backs in fantasy football. Jacobs handled a 60.4% snap share last season, and if those opportunities disappear, Lloyd could walk into a starting role in an ascending Green Bay offense.

PlayerProfiler illustrates Lloyd’s explosive playmaking ability, but there is one massive asterisk: the former third round pick has played only one NFL game due to injuries, making his ability to stay healthy the entire bet. If Lloyd stays upright and Jacobs misses time, this could be the cheap backfield lottery ticket that pays off before fantasy managers realize what happened. Lloyd has skyrocketed up to RB37 on the PlayerProfiler 2026 fantasy football draft rankings.
