MarShawn Lloyd at Minnesota — Stepping into an Expanded Backfield Role
With primary running back Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner exempt list, Lloyd steps into an elevated role in Green Bay's backfield. While offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich indicated the Packers will deploy a committee approach alongside Chris Brooks, Lloyd took lead reps in practice and should pace the ground game.
His fantasy ownership has climbed to 99%, though his 43% start rate reflects some manager caution. Our projections expect around 13 to 14 carries for 55 rushing yards plus light passing-game work (11.6 projected fantasy points). In a projected tight dome matchup in Minnesota, Lloyd is a solid flex option.

Jakobi Meyers vs CLE — Starting Role Tempered by Questionable Status
Jakobi Meyers enters Week 1 as a starting outside receiver for Jacksonville, though he carries a questionable tag due to a right hand injury. With fellow receiver Brian Thomas Jr. also banged up, Meyers could absorb steady targets if active. Check back for late-breaking updates on his game-day availability.
Our weekly projection forecasts Meyers for roughly 4.4 receptions and 49 yards (11.7 fantasy points) against Cleveland. While rostered in 83% of leagues, his start rate sits under 7% amid injury caution. If he suits up, he serves as a matchup-dependent flex option in a favorable home opener.
