AJ Dillon Treated with caution
Published: 2024-08-21 08:16:04
Coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that the Packers will be cautious with Dillon (neck) because "anytime you have a repeated injury there's concern," Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Dillon missed Week 18 and two playoff games last season with a neck stinger, and he's now dealing with the same injury less than three weeks before Green Bay's Week 1 contest (Sept. 6 against the Eagles in Sao Paulo, Brazil). Meanwhile, rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd is still recovering from a hamstring strain, leaving Emanuel Wilson, Ellis Merriweather and Nate McCrary as the depth backs behind Josh Jacobs. It's looking good for Wilson to have a spot on the Week 1 roster, and he might even get some carries to boot.
