Marshawn Lloyd likely to begin season on IR
Rookie suffered hamstring injury in preseason debut

Rookie Marshawn Lloyd (hamstring) is expected to start the season on IR -- they can do that now without missing 2024. (Peter Bukowski on Twitter)

FFToday's Take: Lloyd's likely absence leaves only AJ Dillon and Emanuel Wilson behind Josh Jacobs, who should begin the season in a featured role. Considering Lloyd was anything but a featured back in his college days and how little Dillon has relatively done as a pro, it would be a shock if Jacobs did not end up playing at least 60 percent of the snaps most weeks. What it all means is that Jacobs is probably a very good low-end RB1 option who is typically coming off the board in the fourth round.
