Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd is dealing with an injury in the first quarter of the Week 6 game against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Sporting News.

What happened

Lloyd exited the medical tent and continues to be looked at by a trainer Sunday, per Underdog NFL.

Context

Lloyd has 42.7 PPR points on the season, with 40 carries for 112 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, along with 10 receptions for 55 receiving yards. Last week against Chicago, he had 10 carries for 31 yards and two touchdowns, plus one reception for six yards.

The Packers’ depth chart lists Lloyd as RB1, ahead of Pierre Strong, Kaleb Johnson, Josh Jacobs and Chris Brooks. Strong has 4.8 PPR points in one game, Johnson has 10.6 PPR points in five games, and Brooks has 12.4 PPR points in four games. Jacobs has not played this season.

Depth chart

If Lloyd misses time, Pierre Strong is next on the depth chart. Strong has 4.8 PPR points this season, with five carries for seven rushing yards and three receptions for 11 receiving yards in one game.

Kaleb Johnson has 10.6 PPR points with 27 carries for 106 rushing yards and one reception for 10 receiving yards in five games. Chris Brooks has 12.4 PPR points with 15 carries for 70 rushing yards and three receptions for 24 receiving yards in four games.

Josh Jacobs is on the commissioner’s exempt list, according to an earlier report from Fantasy Football Desk.

Status alert: MarShawn Lloyd exited medical tent and continues to be looked at by a trainer Sunday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Lloyd’s status is uncertain, but he is the Packers’ RB1 and had a strong Week 5 with two touchdowns. If he were to miss time, Pierre Strong would be next up, but Strong has done little this season. The Cowboys have allowed the most rushing yards per game in the NFL, according to RotoBaller, so a healthy Lloyd would be a solid RB2. Monitor for further updates before kickoff.
