News

  • Minimal involvement in win

    Wilson rushed three times for nine yards in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Wilson continues to play a very small role in the Packers offense as Green Bay's No. 3 running back. The 25-year-old played just six of the Packers' 64 offensive snaps, behind starter Josh Jacobs (48) and primary backup Chris Brooks (16). Barring injuries to Jacobs and Brooks, Wilson remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Saints.

  • Opportunities remain minimal

    Wilson had one carry for seven yards in Thursday's 34-31 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Wilson was the second Packers running back to get the ball in Thursday's contest, but both he and Chris Brooks were used sparingly with Josh Jacobs dominating the work out of the backfield. Wilson and Brooks are both handling a similar workload, but Wilson's snaps have paled in comparison to his counterpart's in recent weeks, and Brooks has spent more time on the field in six straight games.

  • Held to two touches Thursday

    Wilson took two carries for 20 yards during Thursday's 30-17 win versus the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Wilson only played four offensive snaps in Week 13, as he appears to have been overtaken by Chris Brooks for the role of second fiddle to Josh Jacobs in recent weeks. Things won't get any easier for Wilson when the Packers travel to take on Detroit's tough defense in Week 14.

  • Gets extra work Sunday

    Wilson rushed nine times for 41 yards in Sunday's 38-10 rout of the 49ers.

    Analysis: Starter Josh Jacobs was the star of Sunday's win by eclipsing 100 rushing yards while scoring three touchdowns. He did leave the game briefly in the second half due to cramping, opening the door for Wilson to get a handful of extra touches he might not have otherwise. Even with a short week approaching, Jacobs figures to be fine for Thursday's tilt against the Dolphins, which would leave Wilson in another low-usage situation on Thanksgiving.

  • Limited to three snaps

    Wilson had two carries for 17 yards in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Wilson was the second Green Bay running back to enter Sunday's contest and the only one besides Josh Jacobs to record a carry, but he played only three snaps while Jacobs got 37 and Chris Brooks recorded 10 of his own. It's still a toss-up when determining who the top option behind Jacobs is, as the snap counts suggest Brooks but the overall body of work leans toward Wilson. What is certain is it's one or the other, as MarShawn Lloyd (ankle/hamstring/appendix) will miss at least a couple more…read more

  • Tallies second touchdown

    Wilson had four carries for 28 yards and a touchdown and one reception for one yard in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Wilson bounced back from a couple quiet weeks by finding the end zone for the first time since Week 3. The touchdown stands out, but Wilson worked behind both starter Josh Jacobs and fellow reserve Chris Brooks, and the bulk of his touches came with Green Bay in catch-up mode during the second half. Wilson has been productive this season when given the opportunity, but with Brooks perhaps even surpassing him and the possibility that MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) could rejoin Green Bay's backfield, it…read more

  • Continues ceding snaps

    Wilson had four carries for five yards and two receptions for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Wilson's snap count has been trending down for weeks, and he did not even finish second among Packers running backs in that department Week 8, as Chris Brooks took the field for 17 snaps while Wilson was out there for only 12. Green Bay figures to lean on top back Josh Jacobs in Week 9 before going on bye in Week 10, so those who have held onto Wilson should be evaluating other options.

  • Limited to five touches

    Wilson had five carries for 11 yards in Sunday's 24-22 victory over the Texans.

    Analysis: Wilson had tallied at least seven touches in four straight appearances, but he finished with only five Sunday. Meanwhile, starting running back Josh Jacobs got the ball 17 times Week 7 and averaged just shy of 20 touches over the last three weeks. Wilson cut into Jacobs' workload a bit earlier in the season, but the latter is now being counted on to do what was expected when he was brought in during the offseason.

  • Makes most of opportunities

    Wilson had seven carries for 54 yards and one reception for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-13 victory over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Wilson played only 23 snaps Week 6, but he got the ball on a shade more than a third of them and averaged an impressive 9.6 yards per touch. Wilson is averaging 5.0 yards on 42 carries on the season, so he is making a case to hold onto the backup job when backfield mate MarShawn Lloyd (IR, ankle) returns. However, neither player will usurp the starting spot from Josh Jacobs as long as Jacobs remains upright.

  • Snap count slips

    Wilson had six carries for 24 yards and one reception for minus-nine yards in Sunday's 24-19 victory over the Rams.

    Analysis: Wilson recorded a touch on nearly half his snaps, but he was only on the field for 15 of the 59 plays the Packers ran on offense, with starting running back Josh Jacobs handling the other 44. Wilson came close to matching Jacobs in both snaps and touches in both Weeks 3 and 4, but Sunday's contest provided a reminder of the pecking order in Green Bay's backfield.

  • Contained by Vikings

    Wilson had eight carries for 27 yards in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Wilson racked up 14 touches, 85 yards from scrimmage and a score in Week 3, but he did not come close to matching those numbers Sunday with the Packers spending the bulk of the game in catch-up mode after going down 28-0 in the first half. Wilson did, however, play an expanded role for the second week in a row, and across Green Bay's last two contests he totaled 22 touches compared to 28 for starting running back Josh Jacobs. That could be enough for fantasy players to justify using a roster…read more

  • Racks up 85 yards

    Wilson rushed the ball 12 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Titans. He added two receptions on two targets for 35 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Wilson stepped into a more significant role with MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) out, and he delivered as Green Bay's most effective running back. His most impactful play came midway through the third quarter on a 31-yard screen that Wilson took to the house for the first touchdown of his career. Josh Jacobs was shut down by Tennessee to open the door for Wilson, but Wilson will remain firmly behind Jacobs on the depth chart despite the impressive performance.

  • Likely to assume No. 2 RB role

    Wilson is expected to serve as the Packers' No. 2 running back behind Josh Jacobs beginning with Sunday's game at Tennessee after Green Bay placed MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: While Lloyd was sidelined with a hamstring injury in the Packers' Week 1 loss to the Eagles, Wilson operated as the clear No. 2 back, logging a 26 percent snap share while carrying four times for 46 yards and catching two passes for two yards. Lloyd returned for the Packers' Week 2 win over the Colts and worked ahead of Wilson, though the latter still played 18 percent of snaps and carried five times for nine yards. With Lloyd injuring his ankle in Week 2 and now set to miss at least the next…read more

  • Encounters more competition

    Wilson had five carries for nine yards in Sunday's 16-10 victory over the Colts.

    Analysis: The Packers ran the ball a whopping 53 times Week 2, with starting running back Josh Jacobs tallying 32 of those totes. Wilson took a handful himself, but he received one fewer carry than fellow reserve MarShawn Lloyd and was the third Green Bay running back into the game. Lloyd injured his ankle Week 2 and is uncertain moving forward, but the rookie seemingly will operate as the No. 2 running back when healthy, which would leave Wilson third in line for carries.

  • Excels in backup role

    Wilson had four carries for 46 yards and two receptions for two yards in Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: A hip injury left Wilson's status for Week 1 uncertain, but he suited up and filled the backup spot behind starter Josh Jacobs and ripped off several quality runs. Rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) could be back for Week 2, but he has not gotten in much work since the start of training camp, so Wilson could continue working in the No. 2 role.

  • Suiting up Friday

    Wilson (hip) is active for Friday's game against the Eagles in Brazil, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: There was no indication Wilson was tending to an injury before Week 1 prep, but the Packers capped his practice reps all week due to a hip issue before listing him as questionable. Now that he's active and rookie third-rounder MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) isn't, Wilson should serve as the No. 2 RB behind starter Josh Jacobs for at least one contest. However, Green Bay elevated Ellis Merriweather from the practice squad Friday, meaning Wilson may be only an emergency option.

  • Questionable for Week 1

    Wilson (hip) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Eagles in Brazil, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Wilson opened and closed Week 1 prep with limited listings across the board due to a hip issue. Meanwhile, rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd finally logged an official limited practice Thursday as a result of the calf injury that has plagued him since Aug. 10, also leaving him questionable for Friday. Josh Jacobs represents Green Bay's clear-cut No. 1 running back, but who among Wilson or Lloyd will handle direct backup duties to kick off the campaign remains to be seen.

    Wilson (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

    Analysis: Both of the backup running backs on Green Bay's 53-man roster are tending to injuries as Friday's season opener versus the Eagles in Brazil approaches, as both Wilson and MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) were gauged as limited participants Wednesday. Wilson is likely the healthier of the two of the moment, as he was also limited in Tuesday's session, while Lloyd was held out entirely. Even if Wilson is cleared in advance of Friday's game and has the No. 2 role all to himself, he may not be in store…read more

  • Managing hip injury

    Wilson (hip) was limited in Tuesday's practice.

    Analysis: The running back will have two more opportunities to increase his level of practice participation before the Packers tag Wilson with an injury designation ahead of Friday's regular-season opener against the Eagles in Brazil. Fellow depth RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant Tuesday, but entrenched starter Josh Jacobs appears fully healthy and ready for Week 1.

  • Could begin as backup

    Wilson could open the season as Green Bay's No. 2 running back, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The Packers list Wilson as the third running back on the depth chart posted on their official website, behind starter Josh Jacobs and rookie MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring). However, Lloyd has seen little action during training camp due to injuries, so Wilson -- the only other running back on the roster with AJ Dillon (neck) landing on injured reserve -- could work as the No. 2 option to begin the season. Jacobs will be busy as long as he stays healthy, and Lloyd should be a factor at some point,…read more

  • Starts preseason finale

    Wilson took 11 carries for 52 yards and caught both of his targets for 26 yards in Saturday's preseason finale.

    Analysis: Wilson started the Packers' final exhibition due to Josh Jacobs (coach's decision) and AJ Dillon (neck) sitting out the win over Baltimore. With the start of the season right around the corner, Wilson appears to not only have the inside track to a spot on the final roster, but he could find himself in the No. 2 role should Dillon's neck injury cost him any time once the games begin to count. Managers in deep leagues should take note of Wilson and the backup situation in Green Bay.

  • Likely to make roster

    Wilson is considered likely to make Green Bay's 53-man roster, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Rookie MarShawn Lloyd is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury, and AJ Dillon is dealing with a neck stinger, which could provide a path for Wilson to make the Packers' Week 1 roster. The 25-year-old rushed 14 times for 85 scoreless yards and caught four passes for 23 yards last season with Green Bay. There's an outside shot Wilson has a role in the season opener behind Josh Jacobs if both Lloyd and Dillon remain on the shelf.

  • Continues competing for spot

    Wilson had 13 carries for 41 yards and one reception for 11 yards in Sunday's preseason game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Wilson started Sunday's contest with the Packers holding out all three players ahead of him on the depth chart, and although he did not find much running room, he did tally both a 15-yard run and the 11-yard catch. With AJ Dillon sitting out Sunday, it seems likely he has secured a roster spot, so it's looking like the Packers will need to open with four running backs or place MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) on injured reserve for Wilson to make the cut.

  • Sees surprising workload Saturday

    Wilson carried the ball 13 times for 67 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 23-10 preseason win over the Browns. He added 28 yards on one kickoff return.

    Analysis: Josh Jacobs and AJ Dillon played only one series each, but Wilson still saw more volume than anticipated after rookie MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) left the game early in the second half. Wilson, a 2023 undrafted free agent, was productive in his limited opportunities last season, but even if Lloyd's injury proves to be serious, he's still unlikely to see a significant workload once the games begin to count.

  • Sticks in Green Bay as ERFA

    The Packers re-signed Wilson on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: An undrafted rookie in 2023, Wilson made the Packers' initial 53-man roster following the preseason and even mixed into seven regular-season games, taking 14 carries for 85 yards and hauling in four of five targets for 23 yards while working behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. Green Bay swapped out Jones for Josh Jacobs and also retained Dillon this offseason, meaning Wilson is poised for a similar role in the coming campaign, barring further additions to the backfield in free agency or the draft.

  • Ends with five-touch evening

    Wilson had four carries for 16 yards and one reception for 11 yards in Saturday's 24-21 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Wilson -- an undrafted free agent -- broke camp with the Packers after an impressive preseason, and he worked mainly in a bit role before missing six games with a shoulder injury. He returned for Week 18 and did not see action, but fellow running back AJ Dillon (thumb/neck) missed both playoff games the Packers played, and Wilson worked as the backup behind Aaron Jones in both of them. The Packers will have some decisions to make at the running back position over the offseason, and Wilson…read more

    Wilson had eight carries for 20 yards in Sunday's 48-32 victory over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Aaron Jones started and played 62 percent of the snaps in Sunday's game, but Wilson -- and not Patrick Taylor -- was the second running back into the game with backfield mate AJ Dillon (thumb/neck) unavailable. It's anyone's guess how the snaps will be divided among the reserves if Dillon suits up for the upcoming matchup against the 49ers, as he is easily the most established of the bunch, and Taylor fares better as a pass blocker. However, if Dillon remains out, there's at least a chance…read more

  • Making return in Week 18

    Wilson (shoulder) is active for Sunday's contest against the Bears.

    Analysis: Wilson landed on injured reserve Nov. 22 due to a shoulder injury, and he's been working his way back since then. The rookie running back was activated from IR on Saturday, setting the stage for him to make his return Sunday in a game the Packers may need to win in order to make the playoffs. Wilson's return comes at a good time for Green Bay, as AJ Dillon (neck/thumb) is inactive for the matchup.

  • Activated from IR

    The Packers activated Wilson (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Wilson has not played since Green Bay's Week 11 victory over the Chargers. It remains to be seen if he will ultimately get the green light to suit up, but if he does, the first-year pro could see a few more touches than usual due to AJ Dillon (neck) being sidelined. Both Wilson and Patrick Taylor are the depth options behind Aaron Jones in the backfield.

  • Could return Week 18

    Wilson (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The first-year pro was able to log a full week of practice, but he must be activated to the Packers' active roster in order to suit up in Week 18. Wilson most recently appeared in Green Bay's Week 11 win over the Chargers, and if he's not able to play in Sunday's affair, Patrick Taylor would likely see increased opportunities as the team's No. 2 running back with AJ Dillon (hamstring) ruled out.

  • Estimated as FP at walkthrough Wed.

    Wilson (shoulder) was estimated as a full participant in Wednesday's practice walk-through.

    Analysis: Wilson was designated to return from injured reserve Dec. 20 but hasn't yet been activated. He logged a trio of full practices last week and began Week 18 prep with an estimated FP, so he at least seems to be mostly healthy. Even if Wilson is activated ahead of Sunday's Week 18 matchup against Chicago, he isn't likely to play more than a minimal role in a game the Packers need to win in order to guarantee a spot in the postseason.

  • Gets doubtful tag

    Wilson (shoulder) is doubtful for Sunday's game at Minnesota, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Wilson seems to be on track to miss his sixth straight game due to a shoulder injury he sustained in Week 11 versus the Chargers. In that case, Patrick Taylor would figure as the Packers' third option at running back Sunday.

    Wilson (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Thursday after being a full participant in Wednesday's walkthrough as well.

    Analysis: The depth running back was designated to return from injured reserve Dec. 20 and practiced last week before sitting out of the Packers' win over the Panthers. Now, Wilson appears to be trending toward returning for Green Bay's Week 17 matchup with Minnesota. The rookie has 14 carries for 85 yards and no touchdowns on 33 offensive snaps this season.

  • Doubtful for Sunday

    Wilson (shoulder) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old running back returned to practice this week after a shoulder injury landed him on injured reserve in Week 11, but it seems as if he's unlikely to suit up Sunday. Wilson would need to be activated to the Packers' active roster in order to suit up in Week 16, and assuming he doesn't play Sunday, Kenyan Drake could see increased opportunities in the team's RB room.

    Wilson (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice for the second day in a row Thursday after being designated to return from injured reserve.

    Analysis: The running back has a 21-day window in which he can return to the 53-man roster. If Wilson can get in another session Friday, he may have a chance to play Sunday against the Panthers. The rookie has 14 carries for 85 yards and no touchdowns in seven games this season.

  • Returns to practice Wednesday

    The Packers designated Wilson (shoulder) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The transaction opens a 21-day window during which Green Bay can evaluate Wilson for a return to the 53-man roster. He'll resume practicing Wednesday, and if the running back can upgrade to full activity by Friday, he could be a candidate to provide depth behind Aaron Jones (knee) in Sunday's game against Carolina.

    The Packers placed Wilson (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: Wilson is now out for at least four games after injuring his shoulder during Sunday's win over the Chargers. Aaron Jones (knee) also left the game early and may now sit out Week 12 against Detroit, potentially leaving AJ Dillon (groin), Patrick Taylor and James Robinson as the Packers' backfield options. Even Dillon is banged up; he was listed as a limited practice participant Monday and Tuesday.

  • Listed as DNP again

    Wilson (shoulder) was a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

    Analysis: Wilson's absence marked his second straight day being listed as sidelined while nursing a shoulder issue. With Aaron Jones (knee) doubtful and AJ Dillon (groin) limited, Wilson could be in line for an extended role in the backfield should he be healthy enough to suit up Thursday.

  • Not practicing Monday

    Wilson (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Green Bay's practice estimate Monday.

    Analysis: Wilson is dealing with a shoulder injury suffered during the team's win against the Chargers on Sunday. With Aaron Jones (knee) also being estimated as a non-participant and AJ Dillon (groin) being listed as limited, the Packers signed Patrick Taylor to the active roster and James Robinson to their practice squad Monday in order to bolster their shorthanded backfield.

  • Ruled out Sunday

    Wilson (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup versus the Chargers, Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Wilson injured his shoulder in the second quarter of Sunday's contest and will now miss the rest of the matchup. With Aaron Jones (knee) also ruled out, AJ Dillon is now the only healthy running back the Packers have left in the game.

  • Breaks long run late in win

    Wilson had four carries for 43 yards in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Rams.

    Analysis: A 31-yard burst late in the contest gave Wilson's YPC mark a healthy boost, but he did not see a carry until the game's final drive and was easily outpaced in the snap count department by both Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. It's not out of the question that Wilson steals some snaps from Dillon over the remainder of the season, but heading into Week 10 he remains the clear third option on the depth chart.

  • Ends up with four touches

    Wilson had two carries for 19 yards and two receptions for eight yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: The Packers elected to manage the snaps of top running back Aaron Jones, and while AJ Dillon wound up being the busiest Packers ball carrier on the day, Wilson did wind up with a career-high four touches. Wilson was effective Week 7, but he remains the third running back on the depth chart, and Green Bay could elect to give veteran practice-squad member James Robinson a look at some point.

  • Could see increase in usage

    Wilson will operate as one of Green Bay's reserve options behind AJ Dillon on Monday night versus Las Vegas, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: With Aaron Jones (hamstring) inactive for the Packers' Week 5 matchup with the Raiders, Wilson will likely see an increase in usage. The running back has turned five carries into 11 yards this season and caught one pass for six yards while appearing in both of the contests Jones has previously missed. Wilson will likely operate as the third fiddle in Green Bay's backfield behind Dillon and Patrick Taylor on Monday Night Football.

  • Remains in bit role

    Wilson had two carries for six yards and one reception for six yards in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.

    Analysis: Wilson saw work for the second time in as many weeks with top running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) unavailable, but he was still a distant third option in the backfield, as both AJ Dillon and Patrick Taylor easily outpaced the rookie in both touches and snaps played. The Packers liked Wilson enough to add him to the 53-man roster ahead of Taylor at the end of training camp, but the latter now needs to be added in order to play again, and Wilson could be removed in order to make space.

  • Makes professional debut

    Wilson had three carries for five yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: Wilson suited up for a regular-season game for the first time, and after losing five yards on his first attempt he did at least rack up 10 yards on his next two totes. He finished second among Packers in carries, but he did not do much even with Aaron Jones (hamstring) out of action. Wilson could wind up being a healthy scratch again if Jones is able to return in Week 3.

  • Scratched for season opener

    Wilson was ruled a healthy scratch for Sunday's season opener against Chicago.

    Analysis: Wilson earned a spot on Green Bay's 53-man roster after he had an impressive preseason campaign, including and NFL-high 223 rushing yards across three preseason contests. However, the undrafted rookie out of Fort Valley State won't get a chance to make his NFL debut Sunday, as Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon should still handle the vast majority of the Packers' carries. Patrick Taylor is also available at running back for Green Bay, though he should contribute almost entirely on special teams and as…read more

  • Gets spot on 53-man

    Wilson is one of three undrafted rookies on Green Bay's initial 53-man roster, Wes Hodkiewicz of packers.com reports.

    Analysis: The Packers have one of the youngest rosters in the league, though the RB room is in sturdy, veteran hands with Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon ahead of Wilson on the depth chart. Wilson was the NFL's leading rusher this preseason with 223 yards on the ground, proving not to be overmatched after a college career at Division II Fort Valley State. He isn't likely to get many snaps on offense, if any, when the Bears host the Packers in Week 1.

  • Another busy appearance

    Wilson had 17 carries for 49 yards and two receptions for nine yards in Saturday's 19-15 preseason victory over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Wilson racked up 17 touches in Green Bay's second exhibition contest, and he tallied 19 more in the finale. Wilson was the second running back into Saturday's game and wound up rushing for 223 yards over three preseason appearances. However, 80 of those came on one play and he averaged 3.9 YPC on his other 37 totes, so it remains to be seen if he did enough to sew up a spot on the roster for Week 1.

  • Earns extended look

    Wilson had 15 carries for 63 yards and two receptions for 15 yards in Saturday's 21-17 preseason loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: A 111-yard showing in the exhibition opener earned Wilson a long look in Saturday's contest, and he was effective once more. He remains in the mix for the third running back spot on the depth chart, but as things stand, he presumably sits somewhere between fourth and sixth in the pecking order.

  • Erupts for 111 yards

    Wilson had six carries for 111 yards and two touchdowns in Friday's 36-19 preseason victory over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Wilson did not enter Friday's contest until the third quarter, but he made a major impact from then onward, racking up three carries of over 10 yards before taking his final tote of the evening 80 yards to the house. The rookie was something of an afterthought heading into Friday's contest, but he capitalized on his opportunity and is now seemingly in the mix for the third spot on the depth chart at his position.
