MarShawn Lloyd vs. Vikings: Stepping into the Spotlight as Green Bay's Lead Back
With starter Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner's exempt list, Lloyd has elevated to the starting role after taking first-team reps in practice. Fully healthy and cleared of any previous workload precautions, he is poised to lead the Packers' backfield rotation ahead of Chris Brooks and Kaleb Johnson.
Fantasy managers have rushed to start him, with his start rate climbing above 41% across leagues. Our weekly projections target roughly 14 carries for 55 rushing yards and potential goal-line touches, making him a high-upside flex option with RB2 potential against Minnesota.

Outlook Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at Denver with Shaky Fantasy Floor Amid Quarterback Uncertainty
Worthy enters the matchup completely healthy and holds a starting perimeter spot on Kansas City's depth chart alongside Rashee Rice. However, the offense faces major question marks under center with Patrick Mahomes currently questionable due to a knee issue. Worthy dealt with a minor shoulder sprain earlier in August, but he carries no injury designation into the week.
Rostered in roughly 83% of leagues, fantasy managers have largely kept him benched with just a 5% start rate. Our weekly projection expects around 8.8 fantasy points on approximately 5 targets, 3 catches, and 37 yards with light rushing work. Until the offense establishes consistency, Worthy is best reserved for the bench in standard leagues.
