Packers' AJ Dillon: Hits injured reserve
The Packers placed Dillon (neck) on injured reserve Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
For the second time in the calendar year 2024, Dillon is dealing with a stinger, which will end his upcoming season before it even begins. With Dillon on IR, Josh Jacobs will have unfettered access to Green Bay's backfield, while rookie third-rounder MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) and Emanuel Wilson serve as the reserves to begin the campaign.

Packers' AJ Dillon: Treated with caution
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that the Packers will be cautious with Dillon (neck) because "anytime you have a repeated injury there's concern," Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Dillon missed Week 18 and two playoff games last season with a neck stinger, and he's now dealing with the same injury less than three weeks before Green Bay's Week 1 contest Sept. 6 against the Eagles in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Meanwhile, rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd is still recovering from a hamstring strain, leaving Emanuel Wilson, Ellis Merriweather and Nate McCrary as the depth backs behind Josh Jacobs. Wilson appears in good shape to clinch a spot on the Week 1 roster, and he might even get some carries if Dillon and Lloyd aren't available.
