Packers activate A.J. Dillon from reserve/COVID list
The Green Bay Packers have activated running back A.J. Dillon from the reserve/COVID list.
What It Means:
Dillon had been on the reserve/COVID list since Week 9, and admitted that he had a tough time with the virus. Now that he's back, he'll slot in behind Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams as the Packers' RB3.
The 2020 second-round pick hasn't seen a ton of action in his rookie season, but he has averaged a solid 4.22 yards per carry over his 23 attempts. He's unlikely to find much work as the team's third running back right now without injuries to Jones or Williams.
