MarShawn Lloyd rode an elite 111.2 Speed Score (93rd-percentile) to third round draft capital in 2025. Entering his third season, Lloyd is completely past the precautionary early OTA restrictions that followed an injury-plagued first two seasons. He has spent the offseason fine-tuning his explosiveness and positioning himself to command a significant share of Green Bay’s backfield touches.
With starter Josh Jacobs facing a dark legal cloud after commanding a dominant 60.4-percent Snap Share last season, Lloyd is a sexy RB stash for fantasy football leagues. Lloyd must supplant Chris Brooks to secure the coveted GB handcuff role and secure massive contingent upside. He must be rostered in all dynasty league formats and could be an attractive best ball option if he starts running with the twos.

A statement released by the lawyers of Green Bay Packers ...
The DA’s office didn’t have enough to hold him, so Josh Jacobs has been released from custody after a stunning Tuesday arrest on five severe domestic abuse allegations, including felony strangulation. Jacobs could be charged at any time during the ongoing investigation.
The NFL has now prefers to let the legal process play out rather than preemptively suspending players who intersect with law enforcement off the field. Jacobs’ immediate release now makes a stint on the Commissioner’s Exempt List less likely.
Josh Jacobs was arrested on five severe charges over Memorial Day weekend—including felony strangulation—following a domestic disturbance complaint, though the 28-year-old running back vehemently denies the allegations through his attorneys. This is a high-stakes situation for the Packers’ primary running back who commanded a 60.4% Snap Share and handled 57 Red Zone Touches for the Packers last season.
With a long-term NFL investigation and a potential Commissioner’s Exempt List stint looming, fantasy managers must prepare for the very real possibility that Jacobs will be suspended for a portion of the 2026 season. At age-28, this shocking news will significantly impact Jacobs’ value in dynasty as well as seasonal and best ball formats.
Green Bay had been battling injuries across the board to close out the regular season. It appears the team has turned the corner in that respect, especially from the two most important skill players on the roster. Running back Josh Jacobs and quarterback Jordan Love have no reported limitations for Saturday night’s first-round playoff matchup when the Packers invade Chicago to do battle with the No. 2 seed and division rival Bears.
Jacobs, who has been battling a nagging knee injury all season, managed just 28 combined carries in Weeks 15-17, but got a full rest with other starters in Week 18. “My body coming into this game is the best I’ve felt probably in the last six weeks,” Jacobs said. “So it’s a pretty good situation to be in.” Meanwhile, Jordan Love is a week removed from clearing concussion protocol. He sustained the concussion and exited Week 16 early before missing Week 17. Love cleared league protocol before the team’s Week 18 affair, but was held out along with others to be ready for Saturday. Neither he nor Jacobs carries any injury designation for the game.
Green Bay is currently favored by 1.5 points for the matchup at Soldier Field.

The Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs injures his knee against the New York Giants Week 11.
The Green Bay Packers lost running back Josh Jacobs in Week 11 against the New York Giants after suffering a knee injury. The hope is he only missed the rest of the game, but more tests will determine the severity of the injury. However, it does not sound like it’s season ending but could potentially miss some time. If time is missed look to add Emanuel Wilson to your lineup. Stay tune for further updates.

The Green Bay Packers struggled on offense on Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles but Josh Jacobs found the endzone. Jacobs finished with 107 scrimmage yards in addition to the touchdown.
Jordan Love only had 158 passing yards and no pass catcher had more than 45 receiving yards. Christian Watson led the Packers with 45 receiving yards, no else reached 40.
The Packers have a deep wide receiver rotation but no one really stepped up tonight, Josh Jacobs is the safest Packer going forward.
