A.J. Dillon (thumb) not expected to play in Week 15 for Green Bay

The Green Bay Packers are not expected to have running back A.J. Dillon (thumb) available for their Week 15 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

What It Means:

Dillon was able to get in a single limited practice session this week despite his thumb injury, but it's now looking like he won't be able to play through the issue against the Bucs. The team is expected to have teammate Aaron Jones (knee) available, but could turn to Patrick Taylor (who has a $5,000 salary on FanDuel) to help handle touches during Jones' first game back.

Jones should operate as Green Bay's lead back in Dillon can't go, and has a $6,200 salary on FanDuel. Our models project him for 11.8 fantasy points against the Bucs' stout run defense.
