The Packers placed Lloyd (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday. 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 before he made his NFL debut in the Week 2 win over the Colts. Though he played just 10 snaps against Indianapolis and carried six times for 15 yards and gained three yards on a reception, Lloyd sprained his ankle along the way. He'll now get some extended recovery time, as Lloyd will miss at least the next four games after landing on IR. The Packers signed Chris Brooks off their practice squad in a corresponding move to provide a third option in the backfield behind Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson.

The Packers placed Lloyd (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday. 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 before he made his NFL debut in the Week 2 win over the Colts. Though he played just 10 snaps against Indianapolis and carried six times for 15 yards and gained three yards on a reception, Lloyd sprained his ankle along the way. He'll now get some extended recovery time, as Lloyd will miss at least the next four games after landing on IR. The Packers signed Chris Brooks off their practice squad in a corresponding move to provide a third option in the backfield behind Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson.
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. 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 an ankle sprain after playing just 10 offensive snaps.
Lloyd sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's contest against the Colts. 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.
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday versus the Colts, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. 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 for both if the offense is more ground-based with Malik Willis and not Jordan Love (knee) under center.
Lloyd (hamstring) is expected to be available for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. 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.
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. 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.
Lloyd (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday. 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 Willis seemingly in line to be Green Bay's starting QB in place of Jordan Love (knee).
Lloyd (hamstring) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports. 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'd likely be joining an offense with Malik Wills under center instead of Jordan Love (MCL). 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 opportunities with four carries for 46 yards in the loss to Philadelphia. The Packers listed Lloyd as a limited practice participant last Thursday and Friday ahead of the season opener.
Lloyd (hamstring) is listed as inactive Friday against the Eagles in Brazil, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. 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.
