Lloyd Ready for Increased Packers Role

MarShawn Lloyd is ready to step up as the Packers' No. 1 running back with Josh Jacobs on paid leave.

MarShawn Lloyd enters the season as the Green Bay Packers' featured back following Josh Jacobs' placement on paid leave. The 2024 third-round pick, who has been hampered by injuries, says he's prepared for whatever the team asks.

'I'm ready to play as much as they want me to play,' Lloyd stated. 'However much carries I get, however much they put me in the game, I'm ready to go.' Lloyd will get the chance to prove his readiness as the Packers look for their offense to perform at a high level early in the season. rocore.sbs
