Outlook MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at Minnesota — Stepping Into an Expanded Week 1 Role
With Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner's exempt list, Lloyd is positioned atop Green Bay's active backfield depth chart indoors against the Vikings. While offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich noted the Packers will utilize a committee approach alongside Chris Brooks and Kaleb Johnson, Lloyd took first-team practice reps and enters fully healthy. His roster rate has surged to 99% as managers anticipate his opportunity.
Our projections peg Lloyd for roughly 11.3 fantasy points on 13 to 14 carries and 53 rushing yards, plus light passing-game involvement. A few Green Bay offensive linemen are currently nursing knee injuries, which could temper overall efficiency, but Lloyd possesses explosive burst. Fantasy managers should consider him a viable flex option with upside in an indoor road opener.

Outlook Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson vs. SF — Tough Path to Weekly Value in Crowded Tight End Room
Ferguson enters Week 1 cleared from late-August practice soreness, but he sits behind veterans Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee on the Rams' tight end depth chart. Despite earning offseason praise for his movement skills, Ferguson faces an uphill battle for playing time in a crowded passing attack.
Our weekly projection forecasts Ferguson for roughly two catches and 29 receiving yards (7.1 fantasy points) against San Francisco in a projected high-scoring matchup. Currently started in just 5% of fantasy leagues, he is strictly a dynasty stash or deep-league hold until his snap share develops.
