MarShawn Lloyd clocked in with 39 total yards for the Green Bay Packers in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. Yeah, you read that right, 39.

Breaking Down the Workload

He wasn’t just getting touches on the ground, either. Lloyd rushed for 13 yards on four carries, but then he added another 26 yards through the air on three catches. This guy was truly doing a bit of everything for the Packers, getting involved in both the running and passing games. He even split playing time with Kaleb Johnson in that game against the Vikings.

What It Means Moving Forward

Here’s the real kicker: if Josh Jacobs isn’t available for Week 12, Lloyd is probably looking at a similar workload. That’s big news for fantasy managers out there, because it means he’s legitimately a No. 3 running back or even a flex option, depending on what happens.

So yeah, 39 yards might not scream “superstar” from the rooftops, but for the Packers’ depth chart and for anyone needing a fill-in, it definitely matters. Keep an eye on that Week 12 report for Jacobs’ status, because Lloyd could be stepping up even more!
