Not shutting door on 2024 return
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that he hasn't "shut the door" on the idea of Lloyd (appendix) playing again this season, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: "I never want to shut the door on that," said LaFleur. [Lloyd]'s just gonna focus on continuing to get better and when he can go, he'll go." Lloyd had an appendectomy in mid-November, right when he appeared ready to return from a two-month stint on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. The Packers had to activate him from IR and place him on the non-football injury list to keep him eligible for a return this season -- a move that won't happen for Week 16 but apparently hasn't been ruled…read more

Moves to NFI list
The Packers placed Lloyd (ankle/hamstring/appendix) on the non-football illness list Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Green Bay designated Lloyd for return from injured reserve last Wednesday, opening a 21-day window in which to get him back on the active roster for the first time since he sprained his ankle Week 2 against the Colts. Only two days later, though, he felt pain in his side and then was diagnosed with appendicitis. The Packers activated him from IR on Monday with the anticipation that they would place him on a different reserve list in the near future, which now has come to pass. This move allows…read more

Returns from IR
The Packers reinstated Lloyd (ankle/hamstring/appendix) from injured reserve Monday.
Analysis: Though Lloyd will temporarily get added back on the 53-man roster, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic relays that the rookie running back will likely be returned to IR or another reserve list after he required an emergency appendectomy Friday. Lloyd had missed the Packers' final seven games before a Week 10 bye due to a high-ankle sprain, but he had his 21-day evaluation window opened last Monday. However, Lloyd was a limited participant in just two practices on account of the ankle sprain as well…read more

Out with appendicitis
Lloyd (ankle) missed Friday's practice due to appendicitis and won't be available for Sunday's game at Chicago, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: The Packers designated Lloyd on Monday to return from injured reserve, subsequently listing him as a limited practice participant Wednesday and Thursday due to ankle and hamstring injuries. It seems the newly reported hamstring injury isn't serious and wouldn't have prevented him from playing this week, but Lloyd now has an entirely different issue to deal with, after missing the past seven games with a high-ankle sprain. Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Friday that the team will talk to the…read more

Stays limited in practice
Lloyd (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: After being designated for return from injured reserve earlier this week, Lloyd has gone down as a limited participant in both of the Packers' first two official practices coming out of a Week 10 bye. The rookie was previously placed on IR on Sept. 17 due to a high-ankle sprain, and though Lloyd is also being listed with a hamstring issue on Green Bay's injury report, head coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that a scan on Lloyd's hamstring came back clean, per Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers'…read more

Dealing with two injuries
Lloyd practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday due to ankle and hamstring injuries, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Packers designated Lloyd for return from injured reserve Monday, and in his first session since Week 2 prep, he appeared on Green Bay's injury report not only with an ankle issue but another health concern as well. The former is the high-ankle sprain that has sidelined him the last seven games, while the latter is a new injury. Green Bay's top running back Josh Jacobs (quadriceps) was also a limited participant Wednesday, leaving question marks in the team's backfield ahead of Sunday's game…read more

Limited in practice
Lloyd (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: The Packers designated Lloyd to return from injured reserve Monday, opening a 21-day window in which he can practice without being placed on the active roster. Head coach Matt LaFleur hasn't revealed whether Lloyd will be activated before Sunday's game against the Bears, or if Lloyd will leapfrog fellow running backs Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks on the depth chart.

Has practice window opened
The Packers designated Lloyd (ankle) for return from injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: As the Packers returned from their bye week, they appear poised to get back the rookie third-round pick for the first time since he suffered a sprained ankle during a Week 2 win against the Colts. The team's top running back Josh Jacobs seemed to intimate as much earlier Monday, telling Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, "I'm excited to see him go this week." Emanuel Wilson and recently Chris Brooks have been spelling Jacobs out of the backfield, but Lloyd could soon join them if he shows well…read more

Could be back from IR after bye
Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said Tuesday that Lloyd (ankle) will be ready to come off injured reserve in the near future, Zach Jacobson of 247Sports.com reports.
Analysis: Gutekunst suggested that Lloyd will take over the 53-man roster spot vacated by edge rusher Preston Smith, who was traded to the Steelers on Tuesday. The Packers are on bye this week, but if the Packers elect to open Lloyd's 21-day evaluation window in Week 11, the rookie running back could return to action as early as the team's Nov. 17 matchup with the Bears. After missing much of training camp and the preseason with hip and hamstring injuries, Lloyd didn't play Week 1, then carried six times…read more

Not ready to return to practice
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Lloyd (ankle) isn't ready to return to practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lloyd had been eligible to resume practicing this week after missing the Packers' last four games while on injured reserve, but he isn't on pace to be activated in the minimum length of time. On a positive note, LaFleur said that the running back is "getting closer," so the rookie could be able to return to practice at some point next week. For as long as Lloyd is sidelined, Emanuel Wilson will be unchallenged as the No. 2 option out of the Green Bay backfield behind Josh Jacobs.

Out with ankle sprain
The Packers placed Lloyd (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday.
Analysis: The rookie third-round pick missed considerable time in training camp and the preseason with hip and hamstring injuries and was inactive for the Packers' season-opening loss to the Eagles. He made his NFL debut in a Week 2 win over the Colts but played just 10 snaps before spraining his ankle, gaining 15 rushing yards on six carries plus three yards on one reception. Lloyd will miss at least the next four games after landing on IR. The Packers signed Chris Brooks off their practice squad in a…read more

Considers self day-to-day
Lloyd said Monday he suffered an ankle sprain during Sunday's win over the Colts and feels day-to-day, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lloyd expressed frustration with the series of injuries he's already had to deal with in his burgeoning NFL career, but it looks like he could have a chance of getting healthy in time to play Week 3 versus the Titans. The rookie third-round pick entered Sunday's win over Indianapolis having just recovered from a hamstring issue, but he picked up the ankle sprain after playing just 10 offensive snaps.

Injures ankle Sunday
Lloyd sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's contest against the Colts.
Analysis: Lloyd limped off the field after rushing for no gain in the waning minutes of the Packers' Week 2 matchup. At the time of his exit, he totaled six carries for 15 yards and reeled in his only target for three yards.

Set for pro debut
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday versus the Colts, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Lloyd's pro debut was delayed due to the hamstring injury that he suffered in the Packers' preseason opener back on Aug. 10. However, after being listed as limited on four straight practice reports dating back to Week 1 prep, the rookie third-rounder has been cleared for the first game action of his career. Green Bay's backfield is powered by offseason signing Josh Jacobs, but Lloyd and Emanuel Wilson are on hand for any reps that don't go to the sixth-year pro, which may be at least a handful…read more

Expected to face Colts
Lloyd (hamstring) is expected to be available for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lloyd sat out Green Bay's season-opener last week against the Eagles, but the 2024 third-rounder is poised to make his NFL regular-season debut Sunday. In that context, Lloyd would provide Green Bay with a complementary option in Week 2 behind top RB Josh Jacobs.

Questionable for Sunday
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Lloyd may be putting himself in a position for his regular-season debut after logging three consecutive capped sessions during Week 2 preparations. He's been dealing with a hamstring issue since Green Bay's preseason opener on Aug. 10, so he's a bit more than a month removed from the initial injury. If Lloyd is able to suit up this weekend, he'll be playing second fiddle, at best, out of the backfield with Josh Jacobs (back) getting the all-clear for Sunday on Friday's practice report.

Stays limited Thursday
Lloyd (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.
Analysis: Dating back to last week, Lloyd has strung together three capped sessions in a row, but he continues to deal with the hamstring injury that has impacted him since Aug. 10. Friday's practice report may leave him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game versus the Colts, but the same could happen to the Packers' No. 1 RB Josh Jacobs, who has been limited this week by a back issue. Whoever among Jacobs, Lloyd and Emanuel Wilson are available this weekend has a good chance to see reps, with Malik…read more

Practicing in limited fashion
Lloyd (hamstring) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The same goes for starting running back Josh Jacobs, who played 72 percent of snaps in Friday's loss to Philadelphia and now seems to have a minor undisclosed injury. Lloyd missed the season opener but could return for Week 2 or 3, at which point he would likely be joining an offense with Malik Wills under center instead of Jordan Love (knee). It's unclear if Lloyd will start off as the No. 3 running back or jump in ahead of Week 1 backup Emanuel Wilson, who made the most of his limited…read more

Sitting out Friday
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as inactive Friday against the Eagles in Brazil, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Lloyd exited the Packers' preseason opener Aug. 10 at Cleveland due to a hamstring injury, which contained the rookie third-rounder to one limited practice (Thursday) during Week 1 prep. The lack of activity wasn't enough for him to make his NFL debut, leaving Emanuel Wilson (hip) and practice-squad elevation Ellis Merriweather as the available running backs behind starter Josh Jacobs. Lloyd will turn his focus to getting healthy for a Week 2 matchup with the Colts on Sunday, Sept. 15.

Questionable for Friday
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Eagles in Brazil, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: A hamstring injury has plagued Lloyd since Aug. 10 and followed the rookie third-round pick into Week 1 prep, which kept him off the practice field Tuesday but didn't stop him from logging a limited session Thursday. Fellow RB Emanuel Wilson (hip) also had a cap on his reps all week and heads into Friday's contest listed as questionable, placing a cloud over who among the duo will be the No. 2 back behind starter Josh Jacobs in the wake of AJ Dillon's season-ending stinger.

Gauged as limited participant
Lloyd (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: The Packers didn't hold a formal practice Wednesday while traveling to Brazil in advance of Friday's game against the Eagles, but Lloyd's limited listing represents a step forward after he was a non-participant in Tuesday's session. Lloyd was sidelined for most of August with the hamstring injury, so even if he does get cleared to make his NFL debut Friday, the rookie could still find himself third in line for snaps out of the backfield behind Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson (hip).

Misses practice, but no setbacks
Lloyd (hamstring) did not practice Tuesday, but according to coach Matt LaFleur he hasn't suffered any setbacks in his recovery, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: LaFleur said Lloyd, who had logged back-to-back limited practices, "has had two good days," and that his absence Tuesday is "just part of the process." Nonetheless, it's not an ideal development for the rookie third-round pick, who missed much of training camp after injuring his hamstring in Green Bay's preseason opener Aug. 10. Thursday's final official practice report of Week 1 will clarify Lloyd's chances of suiting up Friday in Brazil against Philadelphia.

Practices in limited fashion Sunday
Lloyd (hamstring) was limited during Sunday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Lloyd practiced for the first time since he injured his hamstring during the Packers' preseason opener Aug. 10, the rookie running back's activity was capped in his return. Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur indicated after the session that the team will be "smart" with Lloyd as he works his way back from the injury. It's not yet clear if Lloyd will be available for the Packers' Week 1 contest in Brazil against Philadelphia on Friday.

Returns to practice Sunday
Lloyd (hamstring) participated in practice Sunday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Sunday marked the first time Lloyd has suited up for practice since he injured his hamstring in Green Bay's preseason opener against Cleveland on Aug. 10. It appears the rookie running back has a good chance of being available for the Packers' regular-season opener in Brazil against the Eagles on Friday after it initially seemed like he could be destined to begin the campaign on injured reserve. Lloyd's presence in the Packers backfield could be especially important with AJ Dillon (neck) on…read more

Avoids IR, unlike AJ Dillon
Lloyd (hamstring) is on Green Bay's initial 53-man roster, while fellow running back AJ Dillon (neck) has been placed on season-ending injured reserve, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It wasn't too long ago that Lloyd seemed in danger of starting the season on IR -- albeit with a return designation -- while Dillon was in excellent shape to take the No. 2 RB role. Dillon's second stinger of the 2024 calendar year changed that, and the decision to keep Lloyd on the 53-man roster suggests the Packers expect him to be ready at some point in September. The rookie third-round pick missed most of training camp and the preseason due to hip and hamstring injuries, with the latter…read more

Not practicing
Lloyd (hamstring) isn't practicing Tuesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Coach Matt LaFleur declined to give a timeline for the rookie's return or provide details, merely informing reporters that Lloyd won't practice Tuesday after injuring his hamstring during Saturday's preseason game against Cleveland. The running back told reporters after the game that he'd pushed through a hamstring injury earlier in training camp, which is perhaps surprising given that his previous absences from practice (in late July) were attributed to a hip injury. Details aside, the…read more

Picks up hamstring injury
Lloyd suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday's preseason game in Cleveland.
Analysis: Lloyd was the fourth Packers running back to get a touch in the team's exhibition opener behind Josh Jacobs, AJ Dillon and Emanuel Wilson. Prior to his departure in the third quarter, Lloyd had one carry for eight yards and caught his only target for one yard. If he's unable to return Saturday, his next chance for game action will arrive Sunday, Aug., 18 at Denver.

Making case to usurp Dillon?
Lloyd was impressive during Thursday's practice and may have the necessary skills to replace AJ Dillon as Green Bay's No. 2 running back, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.
Analysis: Lloyd is undoubtedly faster and shiftier than the 247-pound Dillon, who struggled in 2023 but then re-signed with Green Bay in the offseason and earned praise from coach Matt LaFleur for reporting to training camp in "the best shape I've seen him, hands down." As a third-round pick, Lloyd certainly is expected to be more than a No. 3 RB at some point, but there's risk of a slower-than-usual learning curve even if he looks good this summer, in part because he fumbled 10 times on 325 touches in…read more

Goes through team drills
Lloyd (hip) took part in team drills Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Analysis: After missing the early portion of training camp, Lloyd returned to individual drills Tuesday and then progressed to team work Wednesday. He'll start off fairly low on Green Bay's backfield depth chart, but the rookie third-round pick may get a chance to push AJ Dillon for the No. 2 role behind starter Josh Jacobs.

Set for individual work Tuesday
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Lloyd (hip) will participate in individual drills during Tuesday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lloyd has yet to take part in team work during training camp while he manages a hip issue, but his return to individual drills offers hope that he'll soon be back on the field as a full participant. The 2024 third-round pick out of USC will likely head into the Packers' Aug. 10 preseason opener versus the Browns third on the depth chart at running back behind Josh Jacobs and AJ Dillon. However, given his superior explosiveness as well as the draft capital invested in him, Lloyd has a good…read more

Shouldn't be sidelined long
Coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Lloyd (hip) will probably miss a few days of practice but shouldn't be absent long, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Lloyd is dealing with a hip injury to begin training camp, but it sounds like the issue is only minor. The 2024 third-round pick appears well positioned to carve out a role behind Josh Jacobs early in his career, but he'll need to get back on the field and establish himself above AJ Dillon on the depth chart. Lloyd's explosiveness and versatility give him a clear path to a significant role, but he also brings ball-security concerns from his time at USC (11 fumbles on 325 touches).

Not practicing to start camp
Lloyd isn't practicing Monday due to a hip injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It's a suboptimal start to training camp for a rookie hoping to push AJ Dillon for backup work behind Josh Jacobs. While his 220-pound frame and 4.46 speed hint at lead-back potential, Lloyd could be brought along more slowly than a typical third-round pick after fumbling 11 times on 325 touches during his college career.
