Lloyd ready for expanded Packers role

MarShawn Lloyd is prepared to take on an increased workload as the Packers' No. 1 running back with Josh Jacobs on paid leave.

MarShawn Lloyd, entering the season as the Packers' No. 1 running back, says he's ready for whatever role the team gives him. "I'm ready to play as much as they want me to play," Lloyd stated via the team's website.

With Josh Jacobs on paid leave, Lloyd has an opportunity to prove himself despite limited game experience due to injuries over the past two years. The Packers will need Lloyd to be ready for their offense to succeed early in the season. cricket-ipl.in
