4 carries each for Kaleb Johnson, MarShawn Lloyd

Pittsburgh Steelers 2025 Football Headshots

Kaleb Johnson

GB Running Back #26

Player Stats

Kaleb Johnson rushed four times for six yards in the Packers’ Week 3 loss to the Falcons, adding 10 yards on one reception.

The two backs combined for the only eight running back rush attempts on a night the Packers’ offensive line was completely manhandled by an aggressive and athletic Atlanta front. Lloyd took his four carries for 11 yards while Johnson managed only six on his four totes. Both backs were targeted three times through the air, with Johnson going for 10 yards on one reception and Lloyd managing just seven yards on two grabs. This backfield is a complete mess amidst Josh Jacobs’ absence and mounting injuries along the offensive line, with neither back anywhere near a usable fantasy asset ahead of a Week 4 road matchup with the pass-funnel Buccaneers.

Pierre Strong

GB Running Back #22

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Pierre Strong rushed 11 times for 28 yards in the Packers’ Week 6 win over the Cowboys, adding 39 yards on five receptions.

Strong’s 17 opportunities handily led the backfield on a night MarShawn Lloyd was in and out of the game due to an early injury scare. Even so, he managed only 2.8 yards per carry. With Josh Jacobs expected to be activated off the commissioner’s exempt list on Monday, Strong, Lloyd, and Kaleb Johnson can safely be returned to the waiver wire from whence they came.
Kaleb Johnson

GB Running Back #26

Kaleb Johnson rushed seven times for 26 yards in the Packers’ Week 5 win over the Bears.

Even with Chris Brooks (ankle) on injured reserve, Johnson remain mired in a three-man committee, as veteran journeyman Pierre Strong slid seamlessly into Brooks’ vacated “role.” In fact, it was worse than that, as Johnson could also only watch as MarShawn Lloyd and Strong formed an early 1-2 punch. Johnson wasn’t really involved before garbage time. Before that, Lloyd had the advantage in short-yardage situations, notching the first two rushing touchdowns of his star-crossed career. Yet to handle more than eight carries in a game, it just isn’t happening for Johnson in 12-team league fantasy. He’s a distant FLEX bet ahead of Week 6 against the Cowboys.
MarShawn Lloyd

GB Running Back #32

MarShawn Lloyd rushed 10 times for 31 yards and a two touchdowns in the Packers’ Week 5 win over the Bears, adding a six-yard reception.

Although he notched a receiving score in Week 2, these were the first two rushing touchdowns of Lloyd’s career. Awesome stuff, though a player who was averaging 2.7 yards per carry coming into this afternoon saw that number sit at just 3.1 against the Bears. The Pack also got journeyman Pierre Strong involved in their increasingly frustrating backfield committee. Strong was mostly just absorbing Chris Brooks’ (ankle, injured reserve) lost work, but that of course means Lloyd wasn’t seeing a bigger workload. Although the scores are nice, Lloyd is still lacking an RB2 profile heading into Week 6. He will be a low-upside FLEX vs. the Cowboys.
Chris Brooks

GB Running Back #30

Chris Brooks (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.

Brooks suffered the ankle injury in Week 4. He went down in the first half and did not return. Brooks underwent testing on his ankle after the game, though the exact nature of his injury has yet to be reported. He does appear to be on the wrong side of questionable for Week 5. If he can’t go, MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson will split the backfield. Johnson led the team in carries last week but also gave up a goal line fumble. We expect Lloyd to get the start versus Chicago on Sunday.
Chris Brooks

GB Running Back #30

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Chris Brooks is undergoing tests on his ankle.

Brooks left the Packers’ Week 4 win over the Bucs with an ankle injury in the first half. He did not return after the break and LaFleur didn’t have any definitive answers about the injury on Monday. It sounds like his status for Week 5 is very much up in the air. After coughing up a goal line fumble, Kaleb Johnson would likely take a backseat to MarShawn Lloyd once again. Lloyd has some low-end RB3 appeal as the potential lead back, but this is ultimately a backfield to avoid for fantasy purposes if possible.
Kaleb Johnson

GB Running Back #26

Kaleb Johnson rushed eight times for 42 yards in the Packers’ Week 4 win over the Bucs.

Johnson led the Packers in carries this week, though MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks combined for 11 rushes. Johnson was the most explosive of the bunch, breaking off a 31-yard run in the third quarter that eventually set up a Tucker Kraft touchdown. He undid all of that progress by coughing up the football inside the five-yard line later in the game. MarShawn Lloyd was on the field for the Packers’ penultimate drive, though it only lasted two plays. We can’t imagine the fumble will go over well with Matt LaFleur. Still searching for answers at running back, LaFleur may turn back to Lloyd or even give Brooks more work in Week 5.
MarShawn Lloyd

GB Running Back #32

MarShawn Lloyd played on 22.7 percent of the offensive snaps in the Packers’ Week 3 loss to the Falcons.

The Packers largely played in a trailing game script last night. Lloyd does not have meaningful access to passing down snaps, logging just one snap on third down and none in the two-minute drill, making him mostly dependent on decent rushing workloads. He played 45.5 percent of the red zone snaps and took the lone snap inside the five-yard line, but was held out of the end zone. Lloyd’s six touches led the backfield, but are hardly enough to keep him locked in 12-team FLEX spots.
Kaleb Johnson

GB Running Back #26

Kaleb Johnson rushed eight times for 32 yards in the Packers’ Week 2 win over the Jets.

Johnson actually led the Packers in rushing attempts and rushing yards in this one. He played on just 13 of the team’s 53 snaps, so we’re not going to get ahead of ourselves here, but he was also clearly the team’s best running back on the day, and he took the first carries in overtime after Marshawn Lloyd fumbled in the second half. There’s a real chance that Johnson steps into a bigger role in Week 3 against Atlanta. He deserves to be added in deeper formats just in case that comes to fruition.
MarShawn Lloyd

GB Running Back #32

MarShawn Lloyd rushed six times for 20 yards in the Packers’ Week 2 win over the Jets, adding six yards receiving and a touchdown.

Perhaps more importantly, Lloyd lost a key fumble in the second half and then was barely on the field after that. The 25-year-old had plenty of trouble earning yards in the running game, but he was wide open on a well-designed screen pass in the first half for a touchdown catch. Lloyd played on just 16 of the Packers’ 53 snaps and handled seven of their 19 carries. This is a confusing committee that isn’t giving any running back real value, and Josh Jacobs could return at some point near the middle of the season. Fantasy managers in shallow leagues don’t need to hold onto Lloyd, and others could look to trade him away on the back of his receiving touchdown.
MarShawn Lloyd

GB Running Back #32

MarShawn Lloyd rushed 13 times for 37 yards in the Packers’ Week 1 loss to the Vikings.

Chris Brooks drew the start in this game and held a carries advantage over Lloyd for a while. Matt LaFleur eventually came to his senses and got Lloyd more involved, though it didn’t result in much production. He averaged a measly 2.8 yards per carry and didn’t catch his lone target. Lloyd will project for more carries than Brooks in Week 2, but he’s a committee back without a role in the passing game. Lloyd will shuffle to the back of the RB3 ranks versus the Jets next week.

Travis Kelce (ankle) was limited on Thursday.

Kelce should be good to go for the Chiefs’ Week 7 game against the Seahawks. At 37 years old, he does not need to practice fully in order to play, though it would be nice to see him upgrade to full participation tomorrow. If active, he is a locked-in TE1.

Rashee Rice (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid told reporters that Rice’s strain was only a “tweak” in his Week 4 post-game remarks. So much for that. The Chiefs will almost assuredly be without their No. 1 wide receiver against the Seahawks this week, leaving Xavier Worthy to handle the role.

The Cowboys’ left tackle played through a minor back issue earlier this month as well. He’s a little banged up at the moment. Whether this injury keeps him out remains to be seen. The Cowboys take on the division-rival Eagles on Monday night.

George Pickens (shoulder) was added to the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday.

Reliable ESPN beat reporter Todd Archer notes that Pickens has had ice on his shoulder during the Cowboys’ last two games. He does not think that this injury threatens Pickens’ Week 7 availability. Thanks, Todd. Ideally, Pickens jumps back up to full participation tomorrow, and we head into Sunday carefree. Stay tuned.

Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was limited on Thursday.

Yesterday, Browns coach Todd Monken said he was “optimistic” about Judkins’ Week 7 availability. He has a chance to face the Titans this week, after sitting out in Week 6 against the Ravens, but it would be great to resume practicing in full tomorrow. If active, Judkins could be limited to a run-centric role, with Sampson also technically being on track to play.

Jaylen Wright (foot) remained limited in Thursday’s practice.

Wright played through this listing ahead of Week 5, but it appears that he simply won’t shake it this year. It makes him hard to trust him as someone who could suddenly usurp the lead role from Ollie Gordon, but we’d be surprised if he didn’t play in Week 7.

That’s back-to-back limited sessions from Douglas as he attempts to come back from an injury suffered in Week 2. We’d bet on him getting to the questionable line at this point given the significant layoff, but he does have a real chance to play against the Jets in Week 7 and be a WR4/FLEX candidate.
