Help is on the way for the Green Bay Packers‘ offense.
As the Packers emerged from the bye week, looking to bounce back from a loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday against Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears this week, Green Bay may be getting some quality depth onto the field.
This week, the Packers opened the practice window for rookie running back Marshawn Lloyd as he looks to return from an ankle injury that he suffered six carries into his NFL debut earlier this season against the Colts.

Lloyd also suffered a hip injury this spring, shortly after arriving in Green Bay.
Lloyd, who was chosen No. 88 overall in the third-round of this spring’s NFL Draft, could look to climb the depth chart behind Josh Jacobs Emmanuel Wilson.
The Packers and Lloyd now have 21 days to decide whether he is healthy enough to return to game action, or else Green Bay must revert the rookie to full-season injured reserve.
