Facing added competition
Dillon is expected to face competition from third-round rookie MarShawn Lloyd for the Packers' No. 2 running back job behind Josh Jacobs, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dillon re-signed with the Packers on a four-year qualifying offer and isn't even considered a lock to make the Packers' 53-man roster, per Schneidman. Dillon averaged a career-worst 3.4 yards per carry in 2023, scoring just two touchdowns. He also was inactive for both of the team's playoff games due to a neck stinger. Green Bay likely hopes Lloyd shows enough to pass Dillon on the depth chart.

Return to Green Bay official
Dillon (thumb/neck) officially re-signed with the Packers on Friday.
Analysis: After missing the final three games of last season due to a neck stinger, Dillon was in danger of moving on to a new organization following the completion of his rookie contract, but the 2020 second-round pick will remain in Green Bay on what's called the four-year qualifying contract, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. With his signing made official by the NFL, Dillon will emerge from the early days of the new league year as the Packers' current No. 2 running back behind newcomer Josh Jacobs,…read more

Returning to Green Bay
Dillon (thumb/neck) is in line to re-sign with the Packers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Considering Dillon missed the last three games of the season (including playoffs) due to a neck stinger, his return to Green Bay is pending a physical. Assuming he clears that hurdle, he'll be a part of a revamped backfield with Josh Jacobs swapping in for Aaron Jones as the team's top runner. A 2020 second-round pick, Dillon averaged 59.8 yards from scrimmage per game and scored 16 total touchdowns in 49 contests over the last three campaigns.

Finishes on injured list
Dillon (thumb/neck) tallied 178 carries for 613 yards and two touchdowns while adding 22 receptions for 223 yards over 15 games in the 2023 season.
Analysis: Dillon saw action in Green Bay's first 14 games of the season, but a pair of injuries prevented him from playing in two of the team's last four regular-season games as well as both of its postseason contests. Dillon will be a free agent this offseason, and the Packers could try to bring him back. However, after Dillon averaged 5.3 YPC as a rookie, that number dipped each of the last three seasons and bottomed out at 3.4 in 2023; consequently, the team could well opt to go in a different…read more

Sitting out again Saturday
Dillon (thumb/neck) is listed as inactive for Saturday's divisional-round game at San Francisco, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dillon thus will miss a third consecutive contest due to the neck stinger that he suffered during a Week 17 win in Minnesota. On a positive note, he managed his first on-field work since then when he practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, potentially setting him up to play beyond Saturday if the Packers are able to pull of a victory. With Dillon again out of the lineup, Aaron Jones will continue to dominate Green Bay's backfield, while Emanuel Wilson and Patrick Taylor are the options for…read more

Status in question for Saturday
Coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that Dillon (thumb/neck) will be questionable for Saturday's divisional-round game at San Francisco, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Dillon logged his first notable on-field work Thursday since sustaining a neck stinger Week 17 at Minnesota. At the very least, he took part in the team stretch and had his helmet on prior to drills, per Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site. Dillon thus has a chance to reclaim his standing as the team's No. 2 running back behind Aaron Jones (knee/finger) this weekend, something that'll be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes for Saturday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Misses another practice
Dillon (neck/thumb) remained sidelined at practice Wednesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Dillon, who was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, thus has one more chance to upgrade his participation in practice ahead of Saturday's divisional round contest against the 49ers. If Dillon -- who last suited up in Week 17 -- remains sidelined this weekend, Emanuel Wilson and Patrick Taylor would be next up for backfield snaps that don't go to starter Aaron Jones.

DNP to start week
The Packers listed Dillon (thumb/neck) as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Green Bay did not hold an official practice, but Dillon would not have been able to participate had they done so. That means the fourth-year running back has yet to practice since suffering a neck stinger in Week 17. Since he has been sidelined, Patrick Taylor and Emanuel Wilson have served as options behind Aaron Jones (knee) in the backfield.

Won't play Sunday
Dillon (thumb/neck) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card game in Dallas.
Analysis: Dillon, who has yet to practice since suffering a neck stinger during Week 17 action, will miss a second consecutive contest as a result. In Dillon's place, Patrick Taylor likely will earn any backfield reps that don't go to top running back Aaron Jones, who has reeled off three straight performances of 110-plus yards on the ground. Green Bay will need a victory Sunday in order for Dillon to have a chance to suit up again this season.

Doubtful for Sunday
Coach Matt LaFleur said Friday that Dillon (thumb/neck) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's wild-card contest in Dallas, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, Dillon was absent from drills for a third day in a row Friday, so his designation for Sunday doesn't come as a surprise. Assuming Dillon misses a second consecutive game due to a neck stinger, the Packers backfield will be in good hands with Aaron Jones (knee/finger), who has cracked the century mark in rushing yards in three straight outings. Any RB reps that don't go to Jones likely will be handled by Patrick Taylor.

Another DNP on Thursday
Dillon (thumb/neck) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Dillon was knocked out of the Packers' Week 17 win at Minnesota with a stinger that hasn't afforded him any official on-field work in the meantime. Having said that, he joined his teammates for Thursday's team stretch before moving to the rehab group, according to Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site. The development may mean Dillon has made some progress in his recovery, but he now has just one more opportunity to practice Friday before Green Bay potentially makes a ruling on his…read more

Takes part in team stretch Thursday
Dillon (neck/thumb) took part in the Packers' team stretch before joining the rehab group during Thursday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dillon appears as if he'll go down as a non-participant for a second day in a row as the team prepares for Sunday's wild-card game at Dallas. A neck stinger is to blame and also something that sidelined the running back for this past Sunday's win against the Bears. Ultimately, Thursday's injury report will reveal what, if anything, Dillon was able to handle.

No practice reps Wednesday
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Dillon (neck/thumb) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dillon has yet to log any on-field work since suffering a stinger Week 17 at Minnesota, but he'll have two more chances this week to put himself on a path to play in Sunday's wild-card game in Dallas. Aaron Jones has been dominating the Packers backfield down the stretch, so if Dillon isn't able to suit up this weekend, Patrick Taylor and, to a lesser extent, Emanuel Wilson, would be the candidates to fill in behind Jones.

Out for Week 18
Dillon (neck/thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Dillon missed Week 15 with a broken thumb and then suffered a stinger Week 17. It would seem to be the latter injury that's preventing him from playing this week, though it's also worth noting that he hasn't been targeted with a pass in two appearances since he broke his thumb. Dillon's next chance to play will be in the wild-card round if the Packers can beat Chicago without him this Sunday while using Patrick Taylor off the bench behind Aaron Jones.

Misses practice again
Dillon (neck/thumb) isn't practicing Friday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Sitting out again Thursday
Dillon (thumb/neck) missed Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dillon is listed with his lingering right thumb injury and a neck stinger on the Packers' Week 18 practice report. He's been able to play through the first issue over the last two games, but the second one forced him out of this past Sunday's win at Minnesota. With no on-field work to speak of yet this week, Dillon may be trending in the wrong direction to suit up Sunday against the Bears. Still, he'll have more chance to practice Friday before Green Bay potentially makes a ruling on the…read more

Dillon (thumb/neck) didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough.
Analysis: Dillon continues to be listed with the broken right thumb that sidelined him Week 15 against the Buccaneers, but he's now tending to a neck stinger that knocked him out of this past Sunday's game in Minnesota. There's been no indication that his chances to suit up for Sunday's season finale versus the Bears are in peril, but his absence Wednesday was forecast by the fact that he stayed indoors after taking part in the team stretch prior to practice, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.

Dealing with stinger
Dillon is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings after being diagnosed with a stinger, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dillon suffered the injury in the third quarter and was spotted on the sideline rubbing his hand and wrist area. The exact nature of the issue is unclear, though with Aaron Jones leading the backfield effectively, Green Bay could opt to play it safe with Dillon. Prior to exiting, he had recorded seven carries for 27 yards.

Clear for Sunday's contest
Dillon (thumb) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Minnesota, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Both Aaron Jones (knee/finger) and Dillon operated with practice restrictions this week, but both players will be available to the Packers offense Sunday. In Week 16 at Carolina, Jones dominated the touches (22) and snap share (52 percent) on his way to 135 yards from scrimmage, while Dillon had seven carries for 12 yards and one touchdown on 18 percent of the plays.

Dillon (thumb) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.
Analysis: Dillon remains impacted by the broken right thumb that kept him sidelined for a Week 15 loss to the Buccaneers. He was able to play through it this past Sunday in Carolina, but he earned a season-low snap share (18 percent) on his way to seven carries for 12 yards and one touchdown.

In his return from a one-game absence this past Sunday at Carolina, Dillon received 12 snaps on offense, which resulted in seven carries for 12 yards and one touchdown.

Records score in return
Dillon had seven carries for 12 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-30 victory over the Panthers.
Analysis: Dillon returned from a one-game absence and found paydirt for the second time this season, but he did not do much else for those who slotted him into Week 16 lineups. Dillon did not record fewer than 17 touches in any game between Weeks 11-14, but with him working back from a broken thumb and fellow running back Aaron Jones handling a full workload, Dillon played only a complementary role Sunday. He will likely find himself in a similar spot when the Packers take on the Vikings in Week 17.

Returning to action in Week 16
Dillon (thumb) is active for Sunday's game in Carolina, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dillon will put an end to a one-game absence due to a broken right thumb, but the primary reason he missed last Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers in the first place was ball-security issues. The Packers appear to believe it won't be a problem for Dillon this weekend as he rejoins Aaron Jones (knee/finger) in the team's backfield. In the seven games (Weeks 1, 4 and 7-11) in which both running backs have been available this season, Dillon has racked up 71 carries for 241 yards, 15 catches (on 19…read more

Deemed questionable, looking better
Dillon (thumb) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Carolina, with head coach Matt LaFleur saying Friday that he feels good about the running back's progress, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: A broken thumb kept Dillon out for last week's 34-20 loss to Tampa Bay, allowing Patrick Taylor to take 43 percent of snaps (but only three touches) while mixing in behind Aaron Jones in Jones' first game back from an MCL sprain. Jones will lead the way again this Sunday, with either Dillon or Taylor coming in behind him. Dillon is more of a threat to get a significant number of touches, even if the broken thumb slightly compromises his ball security and ability to catch passes. It's possible…read more

Analysis: Going back to last week, Dillon now has logged three consecutive capped sessions as he attempts to see if he can play through a broken right thumb. Ball security appears to be the biggest sticking point for his availability on game days, and he likely will enter the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest at Carolina if he's unable to get back to all on-field work Friday.

Analysis: Prior to missing the first game of his four-year career this past Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Dillon was contained to one limited practice Friday in which he was seen wearing a large wrap to protect his broken right thumb. Ultimately, the Packers determined that ball security was too much of a concern to risk keeping Dillon active for Week 15, and he may be in a similar boat as Green Bay begins preparations for Week 16.

Analysis: Dillon showed up on the Packers' Week 15 injury report Wednesday as a non-participant due to a thumb issue, which he eventually revealed to be a broken right thumb. Ball security thus is the primary concern for his availability, considering he was donning a large wrap on his right hand during his sole limited practice Friday.

Unlikely to play through broken thumb
Dillon (thumb) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers but isn't expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: After sustaining a broken right thumb in Monday's 24-22 loss to the Giants, Dillon was listed as a non-participant on both of the Packers' first two Week 15 injury reports before returning to practice Friday as a limited participant.

He's back on the field Friday with a wrap over his hand, with Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com noting that the running back still is trying to figure out if he can properly secure the ball.

Analysis: Dillon also was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated practice report due to a thumb issue after previously dealing with a groin injury the previous three weeks, when he filled in for Aaron Jones (knee) out of the Packers backfield. This time around, Dillon seems to be in more danger of sitting out Sunday versus the Buccaneers than Jones does after the latter was at least limited Thursday.

The bruising back had an interesting performance through the air as well, gaining 35 yards on one of his two catches and losing 10 yards on the other.

Analysis: Dillon played through the same injury the past two weeks, taking 36 touches for 168 yards while playing 52 and 63 percent of snaps on offense. The real question is whether Aaron Jones (knee) will return from his two-game absence for Monday's matchup with the Giants, and there looks to be at least some chance of that happening after Jones logged limited practices Thursday and Friday.

Dillon rushed 18 times for 73 yards and caught his lone target for 14 yards in Sunday's 27-19 win over Kansas City.
Analysis: Dillon got another start in place of the injured Aaron Jones (knee) after being cleared of his own knee issue earlier in the week. The bruising backup produced 87 yards from scrimmage on 19 touches after going for 81 on 17 combined touches in his spot-start against Detroit last week. Dillon would be in line for a similar workload should Jones remain sidelined for next week's matchup against the Giants on Monday Night Football.

Ready for Week 13
Dillon (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With Aaron Jones (knee) ruled out for a second straight contest, Dillon again will get a chance to pace the Packers backfield. It should be noted that Dillon has dealt with a groin injury in back-to-back weeks, but he looked spry at times during the team's win at Detroit on Thanksgiving, turning 17 touches into 81 yards from scrimmage. A fruitful outing may be in store for him Sunday against a Kansas City defense that has allowed the second-most yards per carry (4.8) to opposing running backs…read more

Officially limited Thursday
Dillon (groin) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: Dillon has been dealing with a groin injury for two weeks running, but he's far more healthy than backfield mate Aaron Jones, who is tending to a sprained MCL and has yet to practice since sustaining the injury Week 11. Prior to last Thursday's game at Detroit, Dillon wasn't listed as more than a limited participant on Packers practice reports but still suited up for the 29-22 win, turning 17 touches into 81 yards from scrimmage. Friday's report will unveil whether or nor Dillon enters this…read more

Dillon (groin) returned to practice Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Dillon didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field a day later has the running back trending in a positive direction ahead of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs. The Packers' upcoming injury report will reveal Dillon's participation level Thursday.

Not practicing
Dillon (groin) isn't practicing Wednesday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Dillon was listed as questionable last week before taking 17 touches for 81 yards in a 29-22 win over the Lions on Thanksgiving Day. Aaron Jones (knee) sat out the Week 12 game and still isn't practicing, while third-stringer Patrick Taylor is the team's healthiest running back at the moment. Taylor took on 48 percent of the snaps last Thursday -- nearly matching Dillon (52 percent) -- but with only four touches on his 27 plays.

Solid numbers against Detroit
Dillon carried the ball 14 times for 43 yards and caught all three of his targets for 38 yards in Thursday's 29-22 win over the Lions.
Analysis: While his 3.1 yards per carry average isn't impressive, Dillon came up with some big plays in key spots, including a 22-yard reception that kicked off a scoring drive early in the second quarter. It's the second time in the last three games Dillon's topped 80 scrimmage yards, but his Thanksgiving performance came with Aaron Jones (knee) inactive and Patrick Taylor being the only other back to get touches, with four. With a few extra days to recuperate, Jones will have a chance to return in Week…read more

Suiting up Thursday, as expected
Dillon (groin) is listed as active Thursday at Detroit, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: In the first outing of a likely multi-game absence from Aaron Jones due to a sprained MCL, Dillon will brush off an injury that capped him to limited listings on all three Week 12 practice reports and suit up Thursday. Assuming he's ready for a robust workload, Dillon should get all the touches he can handle as he looks to build upon his performance since the team's Week 6 bye. Over the last five games, he's averaged just under 4.0 yards on his 53 rushes and recorded 13 catches (on 15 targets)…read more

Likely to play Thursday
Dillon (groin) is in line to play Thursday at Detroit, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.
Analysis: With Aaron Jones sidelined for the first of what will likely be a multi-game absence due to a sprained MCL, Dillon's availability is key for the Packers to have a semblance of a rushing attack. However, Dillon himself was listed as a limited participant on practice reports issued Monday through Wednesday with a groin injury and received a questionable tag ahead of the Week 12 contest.

Questionable for Week 12
Dillon (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game in Detroit, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: The Packers emerged from Sunday's win against the Chargers with known health concerns at running back after Aaron Jones (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) got injured on the same possession. Dillon's appearance on Monday's practice report as a limited participant due to a groin issue thus was a surprise, but he was able to turned in capped walkthroughs Tuesday and Wednesday and put himself into a position to be available Week 12.

Remains listed as limited
Dillon (groin) is listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate.
Analysis: While Dillon continues to have a cap on his listed reps due to a groin injury, fellow running backs Aaron Jones (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) wouldn't have taken part at all Monday or Tuesday if the Packers had held an actual practice. Coach Matt LaFleur told Ryan Wood of USA Today on Tuesday that it's "highly unlikely" that Jones will be available Thursday in Detroit, so Dillon appears set for an increased workload, assuming he's healthy enough to play.

Begins week as limited participant
Dillon was listed on Monday's estimated practice report as a limited participant due to a groin injury.
Analysis: Dillon is one of three Green Bay running backs listed on the team's first Week 12 injury report, joining Aaron Jones (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (shoulder). Unlike Jones and Wilson -- who were both estimated as non-participants Monday -- Dillon wasn't forced to exit Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers early due to his injury, and he would seem to be in better shape to play this Thursday against the Lions than the other two backs.

Role expanded by injuries
Dillon rushed 14 times for 29 yards and caught all four of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Dillon saw his workload increase after Aaron Jones went down with a knee injury and backup Emanuel Wilson exited with a shoulder issue during the first half. Although Dillon wasn't particularly productive and rookie wideout Jayden Reed actually led the Packers with three rushes for 46 yards and a score, Dillon could garner a starter's share of touches if Jones is sidelined going forward.

Leads Green Bay on ground
Dillon rushed nine times for 70 yards and caught one of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Dillon's team-leading rushing output included a career-long scamper of 40 yards. Despite Aaron Jones returning to lead the Packers in touches the past couple weeks, Dillon has now totaled at least 75 scrimmage yards in three of his last five games. He'll strive to continue his solid recent complementary work next Sunday versus the Chargers.

Snap count takes hit
Dillon had nine carries for 40 yards and one reception for three yards in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Rams.
Analysis: Dillon played more snaps than any other Packers running back in each of the team's first seven games, but his snap count percentage declined for the fourth time in as many games in Week 9, and he wound up playing fewer than 40 percent of the snaps for the first time all season. With fellow running back Aaron Jones having gotten gradually healthier, recording a season-high 24 touches Sunday, Dillon seems to have returned to a true backup role.

Busy as pass catcher Sunday
Dillon carried the ball six times for 11 yards and caught all five of his targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Neither Dillon nor Aaron Jones found much success on the ground, as quarterback Jordan Love led the Packers in rushing yards on the afternoon, but the two RBs did combine for a 9-59-0 receiving line on 10 targets. Dillon's never been a consistent asset through the air, but with Green Bay scrambling to find something that works, short, high-percentage passes to the running backs might become a bigger element of the game plan as the coaching staff tries to build Love's confidence back up.

Performs well in defeat
Dillon rushed 15 times for 61 yards and caught both his targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Dillon led the Packers in carries despite teammate Aaron Jones returning to the lineup. Seemingly on a snap count, though, Jones finished with 11 touches for 57 yards. Meanwhile, Dillon paced Green Bay in both rushing and receiving yards, also snapping a nine-game streak with under 4.0 yards per carry dating back to last season. Although Jones' workload could increase in Week 8 versus the Vikings, Dillon's consecutive contests with 75-plus scrimmage yards should keep him firmly in the backfield…read more

Solid showing as workhorse back
Dillon rushed 20 times for 76 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in his only target in the Packers' 17-13 loss to the Raiders on Monday night.
Analysis: With Aaron Jones (hamstring) sidelined, Dillon reverted to the lead back role he'd held in Weeks 2 and 3 and turned in his best performance of the season. The bruising fourth-year pro recorded season highs in carries and rushing yards, and he added his first touchdown of the campaign on a five-yard run just before the halfway point of the third quarter. Dillon's lack of a presence in the passing game was the one blemish on his night, but he's built himself a bit of fantasy equity if he's called…read more

In line for leading role Monday
Dillon is slated to lead the Packers backfield for Monday's game in Las Vegas with Aaron Jones (hamstring) inactive, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Dillon has operated as Green Bay's lead running back for most of the season due to Jones' lingering hamstring injury, but his production has been lacking, to say the least. Through four contests, Dillon is averaging just 2.7 yards on his 44 carries, hauled in three of five passes for 25 yards and scored no touchdowns. As for the team's RBs not named Dillon, Patrick Taylor and Emanuel Wilson also figure to get some reps Week 5.

Modest workload in Week 4 loss
Dillon rushed five times for 11 yards and failed to bring in his only target in the Packers' 34-20 loss to the Lions on Thursday night.
Analysis: Dillon's backfield mate Aaron Jones returned from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, but the two players actually logged the same amount of carries. The real culprit in the sparse overall usage for Green Bay's ground attack was the big first-half deficit the Packers found themselves in, plus the fact they were never able to whittle a 24-point halftime deficit to less than 10 at any time in the second half. Dillon will likely return to his normal complementary role alongside a…read more

Jones returns Thursday
Dillon will be joined by Aaron Jones (hamstring) in the Packers backfield Thursday versus the Lions.
Analysis: Dillon has operated as Green Bay's No. 1 running back the last two games, but he hasn't been very productive, compiling 26 carries for 88 yards (3.4 YPC) and an eight-yard catch. Even if Jones can't handle his typical workload, his mere presence may hinder Dillon's potential to produce. In the one contest that Jones was available this season, though, Dillon earned two rushes inside the five-yard line Week 1 in Chicago, so any short-yardage reps could yield fantasy utlity Thursday.

Quiet in comeback
Dillon rushed 11 times for 33 yards in Sunday's 18-17 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Dillon again started while teammate Aaron Jones (hamstring) was sidelined. Although he had a long rush of 14 yards, overall it was another underwhelming outing for Dillon. In fact, quarterback Jordan Love led the Packers in rushing yards (39) and scored with a one-yard keeper. Without any targets in the passing game, either, Dillon's performance did little to alleviate Jones' absence, which could come to an end in the Week 4 Thursday night matchup versus the Lions.

Dillon is expected to serve as the Packers' lead back in Sunday's game against the Saints with Aaron Jones (hamstring) inactive for the second contest in a row, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jones closed Week 3 prep with two straight limited practices and was listed as questionable heading into Sunday, but he ultimately didn't make enough progress in his recovery from the hamstring injury he sustained in the season-opening win over the Bears to gain clearance to play. As a result, Dillon should be in line for another starting nod, with Emanuel Wilson and Patrick Taylor available as depth options behind him.

Modest performance in loss
Dillon rushed 15 times for 55 yards and caught his only target for eight yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.
Analysis: Dillon started with Aaron Jones (hamstring) sidelined but only turned in a mediocre performance. The big-bodied tailback's long rush was for just eight yards and he made minimal contribution in the passing game. Along with averaging merely 2.6 yards per carry this season, Dillon has now gone six straight games without topping 4.0 yards per rush dating back to last season. He will likely return to his backup role if Jones is cleared to play in Week 3 versus the Saints.

Dillon is slated to step in as the Packers' lead option out of the backfield Sunday against the Falcons with Aaron Jones (hamstring) listed as questionable for the contest but not expected to play, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: After tweaking his hamstring on a 35-yard catch-and-run for a touchdown in the Packers' Week 1 win over the Bears, Jones failed to practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday and is poised to sit out the Week 2 contest. Dillon worked behind Jones in the win in Chicago, mustering just 19 yards on 13 carries while adding two catches for 17 yards on three targets.

Dillon rushed 13 times for 19 yards and caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Dillon led Green Bay in touches after running mate Aaron Jones exited during the third quarter with a tweaked hamstring. Despite his workload, Dillon failed to make much of an impact, with his contribution paling in comparison to Jones' 127 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 11 touches. Depending on Jones' status, Dillon could be promoted to the Packers' starting tailback position in Week 2 versus the Falcons.

Dillon took five carries for 24 yards in Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: The Packers played most of their healthy starters, with Dillon's backfield mate Aaron Jones being the glaring exception. Dillon opened the game with a 14-yard carry, later subbing out for Emanuel Wilson on the same drive. Dillon's final carry came on the first snap of the second quarter, shortly before QB Jordan Love found WR Christian Watson for a six-yard touchdown.

Gets feet wet with two carries
Dillon rushed twice for 14 yards and wasn't targeted in Friday's 36-19 preseason win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Dillon and Aaron Jones both mixed in with Green Bay's other staters on the team's first two drives. Both running backs are ticketed for prominent roles in 2023, as the Packers are likely to lean on the running game to take the pressure off quarterback Jordan Love, who has only one NFL start under his belt. Dillon has scored seven scrimmage touchdowns in each of the past two seasons.

Underwhelms in season finale
Dillon rushed nine times for 33 yards and failed to reel in any of his three targets in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: The 24-year-old running back was in a near-even split in playing time with Aaron Jones, as the two backs played 33 and 31 of the Packers' 60 offensive snaps, respectively. Dillon will enter the final year of his rookie contract in the 2023, and with Jones already on the books, a timeshare arrangement between the two will likely remain in place for another season. Dillon finished the season with 770 yards and seven touchdowns while adding 28 catches for 206 yards.

Dillon carried the ball 12 times for 41 yards and a touchdown and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 41-17 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: The power back was held under 50 rushing yards for the third straight game, but Dillon kept his fantasy value afloat by getting into the end zone for the fifth straight contest on a two-yard plunge early in the fourth quarter. The Packers need a win in Week 18 against the Lions to get into the playoffs, so look for Dillon and Aaron Jones to both be heavily involved in the game plan once again.

Analysis: His one-yard TD plunge in the third quarter tied the game at 20-20, and the Packers' defense dominated the final frame to secure the win. Dillon led Green Bay in carries and rushing yards with Aaron Jones (ankle) hurting, so even though the big back didn't fully take advantage of the opportunity, he could be poised for an increased workload in a must-win Week 17 game against the Vikings if Jones isn't 100 percent.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said after Monday's 24-12 win over the Rams that Dillon cleared the concussion protocol, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Prior to his departure in the second half of the Week 15 contest, Dillon scored two rushing touchdowns and hauled in all three targets for 35 yards, but he otherwise wasn't very efficient on the ground (11 carries for 36 yards). Meanwhile, Aaron Jones was again productive with 21 touches for 126 yards from scrimmage and a receiving touchdown.

Dillon rushed eight times for 64 yards and a touchdown and caught three of four targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 40-33 loss to Philadelphia.
Analysis: Dillon and Aaron Jones (15 touches for 99 yards and a score) literally carried the Packers offense in a heated primetime battle against the top contender in the NFC. It was the 24-year-old's first touchdown since Week 1, which seems low given his size (6-foot, 247 pounds) and bruising running style.

Limited to seven touches in loss
Dillon had six carries for 13 yards and one reception for 10 yards in Thursday's 27-17 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Dillon played about as many snaps as he is averaging on the season in Thursday's contest, but he wound up finishing with fewer than 10 touches for the third time in his last seven appearances. Since the start of that stretch, he has averaged just 42.3 yards from scrimmage per game and has not found pay dirt, so he has provided little assistance for those including him in fantasy lineups.

Dillon ran the ball 13 times for 65 yards and was not targeted in the passing game in Sunday's 31-28 win over Dallas.
Analysis: Aaron Jones (24/138/1) was able to suit up after injuring his ankle last week, which kept Dillon in his usual change-of-pace role Sunday. The 24-year-old has been effective in his role behind Jones this season (4.1 YPC), but the ceiling on his touches and lack of touchdowns (one total) have dampened Dillon's upside in 2022.

Analysis: Dillon's final stat line was nothing to write home about, but the big takeaway from this game was the premature exit of starter Aaron Jones (ankle). The latter left the game in the second half and did not return, leaving Dillon to handle most of Green Bay's rushing duties.

Analysis: Dillon was able to get back to double-digit touches after failing to do so in two of his last three contests. The plodding back still played second fiddle to Aaron Jones (20 carries for 143 yards), and he also had to leave the game briefly due to an ankle injury after he was pulled down awkwardly on the turf.

Analysis: Dillon saw a season-low six touches, with Aaron Jones instead racking up 13 carries. Dillon was effective with his limited work, highlighted by gains of 11 and seven yards. Also notable was his lack of involvement as a receiver, as he failed to record a reception or be targeted for the first time in a game this season.

Season high on ground
Dillon rushed 17 times for 73 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Patriots. He also caught one of two targets for 11 yards.
Analysis: Dillon gained steam over the course of Sunday's contest, ultimately finishing with a season high in rushing yards. His workload came while running mate Aaron Jones enjoyed another highly efficient outing, carrying 16 times for 110 yards. With the Packers now boasting three straight wins, expect both Dillon and Jones to continue garnering significant workloads as Green Bay travels to London to face the Giants in Week 5.

Returns to full practice
Dillon (knee) was a full practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: Dillon made a surprise showing on Wednesday's practice report as limited with a knee issue, but in the end it wasn't cause for concern ahead of Sunday's contest against the Patriots. His efficiency on the ground has been lacking through three games -- 3.5 YPC on 40 rushes -- but he's supplemented his stat line with eight catches (on 12 targets) for 58 yards while scoring one TD on the ground.

Limited by knee injury
Dillon was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dillon is appearing on the injury report for the first time this season, but on a positive note, he was able to handle some drills to kick off Week 4 prep. His activity level nonetheless should be monitored closely this week to get a sense of if he's in danger of being limited or even out Sunday against the Patriots. In such a scenario, Aaron Jones would handle the bulk of the backfield reps for the Packers.

Little room to run
Dillon rushed 12 times for 32 yards and caught two of three targets for six yards in Sunday's 14-12 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Dillon's total on the ground closely resembled that of running mate Aaron Jones, who rushed 12 times for 36 yards. Without contributing much in the passing game either, it was Dillon's lowest yardage output of the early campaign. He'll strive to get back on track when the Packers host the Patriots in Week 4.

Takes back seat to Jones in Week 2
Dillon rushed 18 times for 61 yards and caught one of three targets for six yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Dillon finished with one more touch than Aaron Jones, though the latter turned his 18 touches into 170 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. The Packers still entrusted Dillon to run out the clock down the stretch despite a botched handoff in the third quarter that led to an Aaron Rodgers fumble. Dillon has out-touched Jones 34-26 through two weeks, but Green Bay's entire running game could find room sparse in Week 3 against the stout Buccaneers front.

Leads offense in defeat
Dillon rushed 10 times for 45 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Vikings. He also caught five of six targets for 46 yards.
Analysis: Dillon was Green Bay's most productive offensive player, leading the team in rushes and receiving yards while scoring its only touchdown. Although running mate Aaron Jones topped him with 49 yards on just five carries, Dillon saw the larger workload and was trusted near the goal line. After being stuffed on a fourth-down play at the one yard line during the first half, Dillon rebounded by scoring from two yards out in the second half.

Likely rested again
Dillon isn't expected to play in Green Bay's final preseason game Thursday against Kansas City, with the Packers holding out their top players to prepare for Week 1 at Minnesota, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Dillon and Aaron Jones will both finish the preseason without playing any snaps. It remains to be seen if the workload split between the two in the regular season is close to 50/50 the way it was after Week 10 last year following Jones' MCL sprain. Dillon had 180 total yards and two TDs in two matchups with Minnesota in 2021, including the game Jones missed (Week 11) due to the aforementioned knee injury.

Analysis: With all of Dillon, Aaron Jones and Kylin Hill (PUP, knee) unavailable, Patrick Taylor, Tyler Goodson and Dexter Williams will compose Green Bay's backfield in the team's second exhibition. Dillon's last opportunity to make an appearance this preseason arrives Thursday in Kansas City.

Could get larger pass-catching role
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers said earlier this week that it's "realistic" for both Dillon and Aaron Jones to catch 50 passes this season, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Fifty receptions are a reasonable enough ask for Jones, who landed in the range of 47-to-52 receptions each of the past three seasons. Dillon is much less likely to get there, but it isn't out of the question after he showed impressive pass-catching skills for a big back last season with a 34-313-2 receiving line on 37 targets. The 247-pounder will never be the slickest route runner, but he also hasn't dropped a pass in the NFL and remains rather difficult to tackle. Dillon took more work away…read more

Expected to split work in 2022
Dillon (ribs) and Aaron Jones could split the work "50-50" in the Packers' backfield in 2022, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic suggests.
Analysis: Jones played 52 percent of the snaps to Dillon's 43 percent in 2021, but with Dillon ascending, Schneidman believes those numbers will be even closer in the season ahead. Dillon's 2021 campaign was cut a couple quarters short by a broken rib, but no issues have been reported since, so he should be ready to go when the Packers begin offseason team activities later this month.

Suffers fractured rib Saturday
Dillon sustained a broken rib during Saturday's divisional-round loss to the 49ers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Prior to his departure near the end of the first half, Dillon had seven carries for 25 yards and one touchdown. According to Rapoport, the injury is severe enough that it would have been difficult for Dillon to be ready for the NFC Championship Game, if the Packers had advanced. They did not, though, so Dillon will aim for a full recovery by the offseason program.

Scores TD in playoff loss
Dillon (chest) rushed seven times for 25 yards and a touchdown during the Packers' 13-10 loss to the 49ers in their NFC divisional-round matchup Saturday night. He exited the game for good due to his injury late in the first half.
Analysis: Dillon's final carry of the night came with 56 seconds remaining in the second quarter. The bruising back did provide those rolling with him in postseason fantasy contests one highlight, that being his six-yard touchdown run with 9:25 remaining in the first quarter that opened the scoring on the night. Despite the disappointing outcome from a team perspective Saturday night, Dillon's second season was certainly a success that was highlighted by 803 rushing yards and seven total touchdowns over…read more

Quiet start
Dillon ran for 63 yards on 14 carries and caught a four-yard pass on one target against Detroit on Sunday.
Analysis: Dillon started in place of Aaron Jones (knee) and played effectively enough, but his appearance was abbreviated in this meaningless game, denying him the pass-catching production he would normally project for in such a matchup. Fourth-string back Patrick Taylor took over for Dillon for most of the second half and turned 11 carries into 53 yards and a touchdown. Jones should be back by the time the Packers exit their first-round bye in the playoffs, so Dillon should return to a complementary…read more

May be featured with Jones out
Dillon and Patrick Taylor are the running backs available to the Packers offense Sunday in Detroit with Aaron Jones (knee) inactive, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Green Bay is opting to rest Jones, who has dealt with a knee injury since Week 10. Dillon is the clear top option between himself and Taylor, but it's unclear if the team will ride the former or opt for a split of the RB snaps and touches with the latter. No matter, Dillon has handled at least 50 percent of offensive snaps in five of the last seven games, a span in which he averaged 16.6 touches for 80 yards from scrimmage and scored six total TDs.

Ices game with two scores
Dillon rushed 14 times for 63 yards and two touchdowns while catching two of three targets for 20 more yards in Sunday's 37-10 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Aaron Jones (13 touches for 106 yards) was more efficient in terms of per-touch production, but Dillon got extended run in the second half and pounded his way to two scores. It was the 2020 second-round pick's second two-score game this season, and he now has seven touchdowns overall. Dillon has worked his way into a "thunder and lightning" timeshare with Jones, staying fantasy-relevant even after his backfield mate returned from injury.

Solid complementary performance
Dillon rushed nine times for 41 yards and secured all three of his targets for 15 yards in the Packers' 24-22 win over the Browns on Saturday.
Analysis: Dillon operated in his usual complementary role with efficacy, averaging 4.6 yards per carry and also recording the third-highest reception tally on the evening for Green Bay. Dillon does have back-to-back single-digit carry tallies, capping his fantasy value somewhat heading into a Week 17 home date against the Vikings.

Punches in touchdown
Dillon rushed seven times for 22 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Ravens. He also caught his lone target for 13 yards.
Analysis: Dillon opened the scoring for Green Bay with a two-yard touchdown plunge during the second quarter. While that marked his fourth end-zone trip over his last five games, Dillon otherwise didn't get much going, with his long rush going for just six yards. In contrast, teammate Aaron Jones carried 13 times for 58 yards and caught both his targets for 12 yards and a score.

Dillion rushed 15 times for 71 yards and was not targeted in the passing game in Sunday's 45-30 win over Chicago.
Analysis: Dillon continued to see the lion's share of rushing attempts in comparison to Aaron Jones (15 to five), while the latter took over the receiving work (three catches to zero). The pair of players bring differing rushing profiles to the table, with the larger Dillon bringing a physical north-south running style, while Jones is more agile and is a smoother receiver out of the backfield. This is developing into a timeshare situation similar to that of the Cleveland Browns, who have the "thunder and…read more

Dillon recorded 20 carries for 69 yards in Sunday's 36-28 win over the Rams. He added five receptions for 21 yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Dillon saw 14 carries in the second half of the game as the Packers looked to run out the clock on a lead, and he out-carried Aaron Jones 20-10 as a result. Despite that impressive volume, the most notable part of Dillon's production was his work as a receiver. He recorded the first receiving touchdown of his career midway through the third quarter and now has four or more receptions in three of his last four games.

Gets Jones back in fold
Dillon will be joined by Aaron Jones (knee) in the Packers backfield in the latter's return to the lineup Sunday versus the Rams, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Jones sat out last Sunday's loss at Minnesota due to an MCL sprain suffered one week prior, but his absence will be contained to one contest after he got through a pregame workout unscathed. The breakdown of reps between Jones and Dillon is up in the air. In the nine outings in which Jones has been healthy this season, Dillon ranged between four and 16 touches and 25 and 44 percent of the offensive snaps en route to 8.4 touches for 54.3 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring one receiving…read more

Posts 97 combined yards in start
Dillon rushed 11 times for 53 yards and caught all six targets for 44 more yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Dillon received his first career start in place of Aaron Jones (knee), who is still recovering from a sprained MCL. The second-year back wasn't able to repeat last week's two-score performance in relief of Jones, but he was more efficient on the ground (4.8 yards per carry). Jones' status for Week 12 is still uncertain, so Dillon could get another start against the Rams next Sunday if the Packers opt to rest their top back for one more game before the Week 13 bye.

Locked in for first career start
Dillon is set to make his first NFL start Sunday in Minnesota with the Packers officially ruling top back Aaron Jones (knee) out for the contest, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: After Jones exited last week's 17-0 win over the Seahawks and was later diagnosed with an MCL sprain, the expectation was that he would be sidelined for 1-to-2 weeks. Unsurprisingly, Jones was unable to practice Wednesday through Friday while managing the injury, clearing the way for Dillon to step in as Green Bay's clear lead back this weekend.

Dillon is expected to serve as the Packers' lead back in Sunday's game against the Vikings after starter Aaron Jones (knee) was diagnosed Monday with a mild MCL sprain that will likely sideline him for 1-to-2 weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Green Bay has yet to provide an official update on Jones' condition, but the fifth-year back appears on track to miss his first game of the season after suffering the injury in question in the Packers' 17-0 win over the Seahawks this past weekend.

Plays hero off the bench
Dillon ran for 66 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries and caught two passes for 62 yards on two targets against Seattle on Sunday.
Analysis: Aaron Jones left the game with a knee injury that will require monitoring, though the Packers initially stated they believe it to be an MCL injury of some sort. A significant MCL sprain could keep Jones out multiple weeks, and if so it would require Dillon to step into a three-down, workhorse role like he did against the Seahaws.

Busy off bench
Dillon ran for 46 yards on eight carries and caught four passes on four targets for 44 yards against Kansas City on Sunday.
Analysis: Dillon was very effective with his usage, but as the game went on Green Bay struggled to keep him consistently involved in the road loss. The Packers might want to get both Dillon and starter Aaron Jones more touches, especially if they're forced to start Jordan Love again when the Packers face the Seahawks in Green Bay. The first-time starter at quarterback wasn't prepared to direct the Packers offense, so the running back duo might be the best way to limit Love's exposure as a passer.

Expanded rushing opportunity in win
Dillon rushed 16 times for 78 yards in the Packers' 24-21 win over the Cardinals on Thursday night.
Analysis: The big-bodied running back paced the Packers in carries on a night when Aaron Jones essentially pulled double duty as a de facto wide receiver due to the team's shortages at the position. Dillon was efficient with his opportunities, and his carry total was a season-high figure. Dillon has shown well on the three occasions on which he's logged double-digit rush attempts this season, which could potentially lead to more consistent opportunities as the second half of the campaign unfolds.

Diminished role in Week 7
Dillon had three carries for six yards and one reception for two yards in Sunday's 24-10 victory over Washington. He also lost his first fumble of the season late in the contest.
Analysis: Dillon was coming off a three-game stretch over which he averaged 13 touches and 78.3 yards from scrimmage per contest, but he played a reduced role Week 6 and made only a minor mark in the box score. At the least, Dillon's limited workload should leave him fresh for the Packers' Week 7 matchup with the Cardinals on Thursday, but he will have a tough time getting back on track against an Arizona defense that has allowed opposing running backs to find the end zone just once -- and once only --…read more

Effective as complementary option
Dillon rushed 11 times for 59 yards in the Packers' 24-14 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Dillon was a highly effective thunder to Aaron Jones' lightning, averaging 5.4 yards per carry and ripping off a game-long 36-yard run. The big-bodied second-year back has eclipsed 50 rushing yards in two of his last three games, and although he was shut out of the air attack for the first time this season Sunday, Dillon continues to progressively augment his fantasy value in an offense in which lead back Jones' rushing touches are typically kept under 20.

Expanded role in Week 4 win
Dillon rushed 15 times for 81 yards and secured his only catch for 16 yards in the Packers' 27-17 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Packers comfortably ahead in the second half and Aaron Jones losing a fumble, Dillon got plenty of late-game work and made good use of it against a worn-out Steelers defense. The impressive power back hadn't seen more than six carries or gained more than 18 yards in any game prior to Sunday, however, as he remains a clear complementary option behind Jones under normal circumstances and therefore remains difficult to trust as a fantasy option on a week-to-week basis.

Role remains minimal
Dillon recorded six carries for 18 yards and two receptions for eight yards in Sunday's 30-28 victory over the 49ers.
Analysis: Dillon received a season-high eight touches in Sunday's contest, but for the third time in as many games he put up only 26 yards from scrimmage. He's going to have a tough time getting on track Week 4, as the Packers will face a Steelers defense that has been stingy on opposing running backs. However, Dillon is worth hanging onto in most formats, as he would presumably assume most or all of Aaron Jones' workload should Green Bay's starting running back be unavailable for any reason.

Dillon had five carries for 18 yards and one reception for eight yards in Monday's 35-17 victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Dillon got the ball on just under a third of the 19 plays he was in the game for, but it was the Aaron Jones show in the backfield Monday night, and Dillon played only a complementary role. Dillon has not yet come close to matching the snaps and touches former backup running back Jamaal Williams put up the past two seasons, but his opportunities could still increase at some point to help keep Jones fresh.

He did rack up five touches while he was out there, though, so head coach Matt LaFleur did make an effort to get him the ball.

Analysis: With Aaron Jones (hamstring) getting the night off, Dillon started in the Packers' backfield alongside Jordan Love (shoulder), but the second-year RB made a quick exit after a couple possessions. Dillon is locked into the No. 2 spot on the Green Bay depth chart, but if Jones has trouble staying healthy -- he's played all 16 games only once in four seasons -- his understudy has the talent to make an impact with significant touches.

Analysis: Dillon was forced out of last weekend's divisional-round win over the Rams after handling just six carries (for 27 yards), so it's encouraging to see him already back on the practice field in some capacity. If the rookie running back is able to prove his health in time for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Buccaneers, he'll rank as the third option in a backfield headlined by Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams.

Hopeful for NFC Championship Game
Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that he's "hopeful" Dillon (quadriceps) will be "ready to go" for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Buccaneers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: LaFleur also said he's unsure whether Dillon will be on the field when the Packers next practice Wednesday, per Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The rookie running back only handled six carries for 27 yards during the divisional-round win over the Rams before being forced out with a quad injury. Jamaal Williams will stand to handle slightly more reps behind top back Aaron Jones if Dillon isn't ready to face the Buccaneers.

Picks up quad injury
Dillon was forced out of Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Rams with a quad injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With the game secured in the Packers' favor, Dillon isn't expected to return. In turn, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams will handle the rest of the backfield reps. Dillon finished the game with six rushes for 27 yards. The rookie out of Boston College will aim to recover for the NFC Championship Game next week.

Plays bit role in Week 17
Dillon played just five snaps on offense and finished Sunday's victory over the Bears with one carry for three yards.
Analysis: Dillon ran for 124 yards and two scores in Week 16 with fellow running back Jamaal Williams sidelined, and it was thought that his breakout game could help him carve out a bigger role. However, with Williams back and the Packers leaning on Aaron Jones in Week 17, Dillon was an afterthought just as he has been for most of the season. The Packers could get Dillon more involved in the divisional round if conditions are subpar at Lambeau Field, but the rookie will be a clear third on the depth…read more

Explodes for two scores Sunday
Dillon rushed 21 times for 124 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-14 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Dillon turned in the surprise performance of Week 16 (and possibly the season) when he more than doubled his total yardage for the year in one fell swoop. Jamaal Williams (quad) had to sit this one out, opening the door for the Packers' third-string back to burst onto the scene. Additionally, the blowout nature of Sunday's contest allowed him to receive over 20 touches. Dillon was a second-round pick for the Packers in this year's rookie draft, so the team clearly believed in his talent enough…read more

Breaks 18-yard run
Dillon had one carry for 18 yards in Saturday's victory over the Panthers.
Analysis: It appeared Dillon would get a few carries after Jamaal Williams left the game with a quad injury, but with Green Bay's offense sputtering in the second half and the Panthers closing the gap on the scoreboard, the Packers instead leaned on Aaron Jones the rest of the way. Dillon would step into the backup role in Week 16 if Williams is unable to go, but in a game that will have major seeding implications, Jones would likely get the bulk of the work in that scenario.

No offensive snaps Week 14
Dillon didn't play an offensive snap during Sunday's 31-24 win over the Lions.
Analysis: The rookie second-round pick was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday but played only a handful of snaps on special teams in his return. Dillon is unlikely to be much of a factor in the offense if Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams remain healthy down the stretch.

Set to return
Dillon (illness) was activated off the exempt/COVID-19 list Saturday.
Analysis: The transaction means Dillon could potentially play this week against the Lions after a five-game absence due to COVID-19. The 2020 second-round pick has played sparingly this season and likely won't see a massive workload with both Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams healthy for the divisional matchup.

Comes off COVID-19 list
The Packers activated Dillon (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: Dillon missed four straight games due to his time on the COVID-19 list, but it looks as though he'll be available for Sunday's upcoming away game against the Lions. Given the amount of time Dillon has spent away from practice, though, the Packers could opt to ease him back into action. In any case, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams are in line to continue operating as the top options out of Green Bay's backfield.

Spotted at Wednesday's practice
Dillon (illness) participated in Wednesday's practice, indicating he could be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list soon, John Doran of Fox 11 News Green Bay reports.
Analysis: Dillon has been away from the Packers' facility since testing positive for COVID-19 on Nov. 2. His presence at practice signals that he's since tested negative for the virus twice within 24 hours and is no longer experiencing symptoms. The rookie second-rounder is thus eligible to be activated, but the Packers may want Dillon to regain some conditioning before adding him to the 53-man roster. Once he's deemed ready to go, Dillon will slot in as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and…read more

Remains in COVID-19 protocol
Coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Dillon (illness) has returned to the Packers' facility but continues to work his way through the NFL's COVID-19 protocol, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Dillon is more than three weeks removed from testing positive for the virus, missing three games as a result. There's no telling when he'll be cleared to resume regular activities, or when his conditioning will be sufficient enough for him to be considered ready for game action. That said, LaFleur believes Dillon "can contribute a lot" once he does get activated. Until then, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams will continue to get the bulk of the backfield reps for Green Bay.

Tests positive for COVID-19
Dillon was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Dillon won't be able to play Thursday against the 49ers. Aaron Jones (calf) may be available, but Jamaal Williams is the only running back that's currently healthy for Week 9. Dillon will have to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before returning to team activities.

Limited workload again
Dillon carried the ball five times for 21 yards and caught his only target for 16 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: The 37 scrimmage yards were a career high for the rookie, but for the second straight game Dillon's touches were limited while working behind Jamaal Williams, even with Aaron Jones (calf) sidelined. If Jones is able to return to action in Week 9, Dillon's role could shrink even further.

Only five touches
Dillon carried the ball five times for 11 yards in Week 7 against the Texans.
Analysis: Dillon was expected to get greater opportunity in the absence of Aaron Jones (calf). However, he was out-touched by Jamaal Williams 24-5 and managed just 11 total yards. Given that Jones' absence is expected to be brief, it's likely that Dillon missed the opportunity to command a bigger workload in the offense, at least for the time being. He and the Packers will take on the Vikings in Week 8.

Increased workload likely Sunday
Dillon is slated to serve as the Packers' No. 2 running back behind Jamaal Williams with Aaron Jones (calf) sidelined Sunday in Houston, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: So far this season, Jones has averaged 18.6 touches per game, leaving a significant workload up for grabs. Williams himself boasts 9.2 touches per game and has the most experience among those available out of the backfield, so he's the better bet to lead the unit. Still, the Packers invested a second-round pick in April's draft in Dillon, and he's responded with 13 carries for 65 yards through five contests. Look for Dillon at least to spell Williams and perhaps be featured on a handful of…read more

Could handle expanded role
Coach Matt LaFleur said he's confident Dillon can step up if Aaron Jones (calf) isn't able to play in Sunday's game against Houston, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Jamaal Williams has seen far more work than Dillon this year, but it is possible the Packers could lean on the rookie as their lead ballcarrier, with Williams then handling more of the receiving work. Of course, we still need to see how things play out with Jones, who appears to be headed for a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Williams would be the safer fantasy play in the event of a Jones absence, but Dillon would also offer some upside.

Averages 6.2 yards per carry
Dillon carried five times for 31 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Dillon averaged an impressive 6.2 yards per carry as Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams both struggled, with the majority of his production coming on a 20-yard rumble in the fourth quarter. The rookie's impressive cameo nearly doubled his season rushing output and could earn him another look as a change-of-pace option in the coming weeks. Dillon will look to build off the best effort of his young career next Sunday against the Texans.

Continues playing bit role
Dillon had one carry for three yards in Monday's victory over the Falcons.
Analysis: Dillon got a chance to run the ball after not taking even one carry in Week 3, but his role remained minimal, as he was on the field for just three plays on offense. It's possible the Packers could get him more involved coming out of their Week 5 bye, but with fellow backs Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams both getting the job done there just aren't many snaps up for grabs.

No action in Week 3
Dillon did not take the field for an offensive snap in Sunday's 37-30 victory over the Saints.
Analysis: Dillon had five carries late in a Week 2 blowout after recording two totes in his first game as a pro, but he did not get even one chance to run the ball Sunday with the Packers relying solely on their three veteran backs. He still has some long-term intrigue, but as things stand he's merely extra depth in the Packers backfield.

Gets five carries late
Dillon had five carries for 17 yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Dillon did not take a snap on offense until late in Sunday's game, but the Packers gave him a chance to stretch his legs on their final couple drives, and he ended up with three more carries than he totaled Week 1. Dillon is a distant fourth among Packers running backs in snaps played through two weeks, but he has made the most of his opportunities, averaging a respectable 4.4 YPC on his first seven rushing attempts as a pro.

Two totes in pro debut
Dillon had two carries for 14 yards in Sunday's victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: Dillon played only a bit role in Week 1, finishing fourth among Packers running backs with five snaps. However, he showed well on his limited opportunities, racking up six and eight yards on his two rushes. Dillon finds himself in a crowded backfield in Green Bay, but he was taken in the second round of April's draft, so look for the team to try and get him more involved as the season wears on.

Listed co-third on depth chart
Dillon is listed third, along with Tyler Ervin, on the unofficial depth chart released by the Packers on Monday night.
Analysis: Dillon was drafted in the second round of April's draft, but it comes as little surprise that he does not occupy a prominent spot on the depth chart heading into Week 1, as both Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams remain on the Packers' roster. Dillon is not likely to be much of a factor in the offense early on, but he is the most powerful of the team's four running backs, so he could be used in short-yardage situations. His role could certainly expand during the season as he gets more familiar…read more

Inks rookie deal
Dillon announced Wednesday via his personal Twitter account that he signed his four-year rookie contract with the Packers.
Analysis: The earliest running back picked by Green Bay since 2013 (Eddie Lacy, 61st overall), Dillon was a curious selection at No. 62 in this April's draft, considering the backfield already is populated by Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams. The rookie out of Boston College may be viewed as a potential successor for Jones, who could become a free agent after the 2020 season and may be seeking a big payday after tying for the league lead with 19 touchdowns in 2019. Dillon himself brings a different…read more
