  • Efficient in limited role

    Dillon recorded 46 carries for 242 yards and two touchdowns and two receptions for 21 yards over 11 appearances in 2020.

    Analysis: Dillon played a bit role for most of the season, and he missed five games following a positive test for COVID-19. However, the 2020 second-round pick averaged a healthy 5.3 yards per carry over the course of the season, and he shined in his one extended opportunity, tallying 124 yards and two scores on the ground in the Packers' Week 16 victory over the Titans. It will be tough to determine Dillon's 2021 role without knowing if free agents Aaron Jones and/or Jamaal Williams will return to Green…read more

  • Ready for NFC championship

    Dillon (quadricep) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The quad injury limited Dillon's practice participation but won't impact his availability for the NFC Championship Game. He took six carries for 27 yards in a 32-18 divisional-round win over Los Angeles last week, playing 12 percent of Green Bay's snaps on offense.

  • Limited at Thursday's practice

    Dillon (quadricep) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Dillon was knocked out of the later stages of the Packers' divisional-round win against the Rams with a quad issue, which so far has resulted in a cap on his practice reps this week. Coach Matt LaFleur told Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette on Monday that he's "hopeful" Dillon will be able to suit up for Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Buccaneers. With two practices under his belt, Dillon is trending in the right direction, but Friday's injury report may give a sense of whether…read more

  • Limited to begin week

    The Packers listed Dillon (quadriceps) as a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Dillon was forced out of last weekend's divisional-round win over the Rams after handling just six carries (for 27 yards), so it's encouraging to see him already back on the practice field in some capacity. If the rookie running back is able to prove his health in time for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Buccaneers, he'll rank as the third option in a backfield headlined by Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams.

  • Hopeful for NFC Championship Game

    Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that he's "hopeful" Dillon (quadriceps) will be "ready to go" for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Buccaneers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: LaFleur also said he's unsure whether Dillon will be on the field when the Packers next practice Wednesday, per Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The rookie running back only handled six carries for 27 yards during the divisional-round win over the Rams before being forced out with a quad injury. Jamaal Williams will stand to handle slightly more reps behind top back Aaron Jones if Dillon isn't ready to face the Buccaneers.

  • Picks up quad injury

    Dillon was forced out of Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Rams with a quad injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With the game secured in the Packers' favor, Dillon isn't expected to return. In turn, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams will handle the rest of the backfield reps. Dillon finished the game with six rushes for 27 yards. The rookie out of Boston College will aim to recover for the NFC Championship Game next week.

  • Plays bit role in Week 17

    Dillon played just five snaps on offense and finished Sunday's victory over the Bears with one carry for three yards.

    Analysis: Dillon ran for 124 yards and two scores in Week 16 with fellow running back Jamaal Williams sidelined, and it was thought that his breakout game could help him carve out a bigger role. However, with Williams back and the Packers leaning on Aaron Jones in Week 17, Dillon was an afterthought just as he has been for most of the season. The Packers could get Dillon more involved in the divisional round if conditions are subpar at Lambeau Field, but the rookie will be a clear third on the depth…read more

  • Explodes for two scores Sunday

    Dillon rushed 21 times for 124 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-14 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Dillon turned in the surprise performance of Week 16 (and possibly the season) when he more than doubled his total yardage for the year in one fell swoop. Jamaal Williams (quad) had to sit this one out, opening the door for the Packers' third-string back to burst onto the scene. Additionally, the blowout nature of Sunday's contest allowed him to receive over 20 touches. Dillon was a second-round pick for the Packers in this year's rookie draft, so the team clearly believed in his talent enough…read more

  • Breaks 18-yard run

    Dillon had one carry for 18 yards in Saturday's victory over the Panthers.

    Analysis: It appeared Dillon would get a few carries after Jamaal Williams left the game with a quad injury, but with Green Bay's offense sputtering in the second half and the Panthers closing the gap on the scoreboard, the Packers instead leaned on Aaron Jones the rest of the way. Dillon would step into the backup role in Week 16 if Williams is unable to go, but in a game that will have major seeding implications, Jones would likely get the bulk of the work in that scenario.

  • No offensive snaps Week 14

    Dillon didn't play an offensive snap during Sunday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: The rookie second-round pick was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday but played only a handful of snaps on special teams in his return. Dillon is unlikely to be much of a factor in the offense if Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams remain healthy down the stretch.

  • Set to return

    Dillon (illness) was activated off the exempt/COVID-19 list Saturday.

    Analysis: The transaction means Dillon could potentially play this week against the Lions after a five-game absence due to COVID-19. The 2020 second-round pick has played sparingly this season and likely won't see a massive workload with both Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams healthy for the divisional matchup.

  • Comes off COVID-19 list

    The Packers activated Dillon (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

    Analysis: Dillon missed four straight games due to his time on the COVID-19 list, but it looks as though he'll be available for Sunday's upcoming away game against the Lions. Given the amount of time Dillon has spent away from practice, though, the Packers could opt to ease him back into action. In any case, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams are in line to continue operating as the top options out of Green Bay's backfield.

  • Spotted at Wednesday's practice

    Dillon (illness) participated in Wednesday's practice, indicating he could be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list soon, John Doran of Fox 11 News Green Bay reports.

    Analysis: Dillon has been away from the Packers' facility since testing positive for COVID-19 on Nov. 2. His presence at practice signals that he's since tested negative for the virus twice within 24 hours and is no longer experiencing symptoms. The rookie second-rounder is thus eligible to be activated, but the Packers may want Dillon to regain some conditioning before adding him to the 53-man roster. Once he's deemed ready to go, Dillon will slot in as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and…read more

  • Remains in COVID-19 protocol

    Coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Dillon (illness) has returned to the Packers' facility but continues to work his way through the NFL's COVID-19 protocol, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Dillon is more than three weeks removed from testing positive for the virus, missing three games as a result. There's no telling when he'll be cleared to resume regular activities, or when his conditioning will be sufficient enough for him to be considered ready for game action. That said, LaFleur believes Dillon "can contribute a lot" once he does get activated. Until then, Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams will continue to get the bulk of the backfield reps for Green Bay.

  • Tests positive for COVID-19

    Dillon was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Dillon won't be able to play Thursday against the 49ers. Aaron Jones (calf) may be available, but Jamaal Williams is the only running back that's currently healthy for Week 9. Dillon will have to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before returning to team activities.

  • Limited workload again

    Dillon carried the ball five times for 21 yards and caught his only target for 16 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: The 37 scrimmage yards were a career high for the rookie, but for the second straight game Dillon's touches were limited while working behind Jamaal Williams, even with Aaron Jones (calf) sidelined. If Jones is able to return to action in Week 9, Dillon's role could shrink even further.

  • Only five touches

    Dillon carried the ball five times for 11 yards in Week 7 against the Texans.

    Analysis: Dillon was expected to get greater opportunity in the absence of Aaron Jones (calf). However, he was out-touched by Jamaal Williams 24-5 and managed just 11 total yards. Given that Jones' absence is expected to be brief, it's likely that Dillon missed the opportunity to command a bigger workload in the offense, at least for the time being. He and the Packers will take on the Vikings in Week 8.

  • Increased workload likely Sunday

    Dillon is slated to serve as the Packers' No. 2 running back behind Jamaal Williams with Aaron Jones (calf) sidelined Sunday in Houston, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: So far this season, Jones has averaged 18.6 touches per game, leaving a significant workload up for grabs. Williams himself boasts 9.2 touches per game and has the most experience among those available out of the backfield, so he's the better bet to lead the unit. Still, the Packers invested a second-round pick in April's draft in Dillon, and he's responded with 13 carries for 65 yards through five contests. Look for Dillon at least to spell Williams and perhaps be featured on a handful of…read more

  • Could handle expanded role

    Coach Matt LaFleur said he's confident Dillon can step up if Aaron Jones (calf) isn't able to play in Sunday's game against Houston, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Jamaal Williams has seen far more work than Dillon this year, but it is possible the Packers could lean on the rookie as their lead ballcarrier, with Williams then handling more of the receiving work. Of course, we still need to see how things play out with Jones, who appears to be headed for a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Williams would be the safer fantasy play in the event of a Jones absence, but Dillon would also offer some upside.

  • Averages 6.2 yards per carry

    Dillon carried five times for 31 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Dillon averaged an impressive 6.2 yards per carry as Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams both struggled, with the majority of his production coming on a 20-yard rumble in the fourth quarter. The rookie's impressive cameo nearly doubled his season rushing output and could earn him another look as a change-of-pace option in the coming weeks. Dillon will look to build off the best effort of his young career next Sunday against the Texans.

  • Continues playing bit role

    Dillon had one carry for three yards in Monday's victory over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Dillon got a chance to run the ball after not taking even one carry in Week 3, but his role remained minimal, as he was on the field for just three plays on offense. It's possible the Packers could get him more involved coming out of their Week 5 bye, but with fellow backs Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams both getting the job done there just aren't many snaps up for grabs.

  • No action in Week 3

    Dillon did not take the field for an offensive snap in Sunday's 37-30 victory over the Saints.

    Analysis: Dillon had five carries late in a Week 2 blowout after recording two totes in his first game as a pro, but he did not get even one chance to run the ball Sunday with the Packers relying solely on their three veteran backs. He still has some long-term intrigue, but as things stand he's merely extra depth in the Packers backfield.

  • Gets five carries late

    Dillon had five carries for 17 yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

    Analysis: Dillon did not take a snap on offense until late in Sunday's game, but the Packers gave him a chance to stretch his legs on their final couple drives, and he ended up with three more carries than he totaled Week 1. Dillon is a distant fourth among Packers running backs in snaps played through two weeks, but he has made the most of his opportunities, averaging a respectable 4.4 YPC on his first seven rushing attempts as a pro.

  • Two totes in pro debut

    Dillon had two carries for 14 yards in Sunday's victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Dillon played only a bit role in Week 1, finishing fourth among Packers running backs with five snaps. However, he showed well on his limited opportunities, racking up six and eight yards on his two rushes. Dillon finds himself in a crowded backfield in Green Bay, but he was taken in the second round of April's draft, so look for the team to try and get him more involved as the season wears on.

  • Listed co-third on depth chart

    Dillon is listed third, along with Tyler Ervin, on the unofficial depth chart released by the Packers on Monday night.

    Analysis: Dillon was drafted in the second round of April's draft, but it comes as little surprise that he does not occupy a prominent spot on the depth chart heading into Week 1, as both Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams remain on the Packers' roster. Dillon is not likely to be much of a factor in the offense early on, but he is the most powerful of the team's four running backs, so he could be used in short-yardage situations. His role could certainly expand during the season as he gets more familiar…read more

  • Inks rookie deal

    Dillon announced Wednesday via his personal Twitter account that he signed his four-year rookie contract with the Packers.

    Analysis: The earliest running back picked by Green Bay since 2013 (Eddie Lacy, 61st overall), Dillon was a curious selection at No. 62 in this April's draft, considering the backfield already is populated by Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams. The rookie out of Boston College may be viewed as a potential successor for Jones, who could become a free agent after the 2020 season and may be seeking a big payday after tying for the league lead with 19 touchdowns in 2019. Dillon himself brings a different…read more
