Packers RB Lloyd to IR Ahead of Crucial Game
20 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Packers running back Lloyd placed on injured reserve with hamstring issue.
- Lloyd's return is targeted for the playoffs, according to reports.
- Only one healthy running back remains for the Packers' Week 16 matchup.
Green Bay Packers running back Tyler Lloyd has been placed on injured reserve, as reported on Friday, December 20, 2025. The injury causing this placement is a hamstring issue that necessitates his removal from the active roster.
Lloyd had briefly been activated from injured reserve on Wednesday, December 17, 2025. However, the decision to return him to IR ensures he remains eligible for potential playoff appearances later in the season.
This roster move leaves the Packers with a severely depleted running back corps for their Week 16 game against the Chicago Bears. Emmanuel Wilson is currently the only fully healthy running back available, as both Josh Jacobs and Christ Brooks are listed as questionable due to knee/ankle and chest injuries, respectively.
