Drops: Chris Brooks
Green Bay Packers running back Pierre Strong Jr. played 41% of the offensive snaps in his first game of the season against Chicago, but the production was limited. Strong rushed five times for seven yards and caught three of four targets for 11 yards. MarShawn Lloyd remained the lead option, handling 10 carries and scoring two touchdowns. Chris Brooks (ankle) is on injured reserve, which has opened additional snaps in the backfield. Josh Jacobs is eligible to return in Week 7, so Strong's current role may last only one more game. Dallas has allowed an NFL-high 168.4 rushing yards per game, giving Green Bay a favorable matchup Sunday night. Strong's involvement in the passing game offers some value, but his limited workload and production make him difficult to trust. RotoBaller ranks Strong RB45 for Week 6, leaving him as a deep-league Flex option
Josh Jacobs expected to be removed from Commissioner's Exempt List on Monday, potentially clearing way for Week 7 return
MarShawn Lloyd has regained a prominent role in the Green Bay Packers' backfield after an early-season slump. Following Week 2 and 3 usage splits with Kaleb Johnson and Chris Brooks, Lloyd saw increased snaps (55% in Week 4, 44% in Week 5) and has delivered solid fantasy performances, including receiving work and short-yardage touchdowns. He is now considered a touchdown-dependent FLEX play

Chris Brooks placed on injured reserve, eligible to return in Week 9
Week 5 of the 2026 NFL season is almost here and teams are sending out their final injury reports for the week in preparation for the upcoming matchups. Injuries have plagued this season already and each week it seems we are seeing a top player go down. Teams have needed to restructure and make new plans as key players are unavailable, with numerous quarterbacks out. This week, Bears QB Caleb Williams is questionable and could make his return, while QB Jayden Daniels is good to go. This week, the Chiefs and Panthers are on a bye, so they have some time to get healthy for Week 6. Here's a look at the final injury reports for Sunday: The already struggling Eagles will be without star running back Saquon Barkley, who suffered a hamstring injury during last week's loss to the Rams . The offense will also be without WR DeVonta Smith. The Jags are relatively healthy heading into their annual London game, with just two players with designations this week. CB Jaylon Jones was ruled out with a hamstring injury, despite being limited in practice all week, and Eric Murray is doubtful after being limited for the last two days of practice. The Bears have a chance to get their starting quarterback back on the field this week, after missing Caleb Williams for two weeks with a hamstring injury. Williams was limited in practice on Friday after not practicing on Wednesday and Thursday. Last week, the Bears turned to backup Tyson Bagent in his absence. The Bears' offense will also be without running back Kyle Monangai. The Packers are also without a running back, as Chris Brooks is dealing with an ankle injury. Running back Pierre Strong will play his first game since 2024 with Brooks out. Green Bay's defensive tackle Javon Hargrave is questionable with a toe injury after he was limited in Friday's practice. The Texans' offense will be without WR Tank Dell, who is their only player ruled out ahead of Sunday's game as he continues to recover from a knee injury. The Texans activated his 21-day window to return from IR this week, and he was limited in two practices this week, while being a non-participant on Friday. It seems like Houston is closer to having their wideout back. The good news for the Texans is Azeez Al-Shaair is not on the injury report. The Titans also only have one player out ahead of the divisional matchup. S Amani Hooker is out with a concussion. WR Carnell Tate is questionable with a back injury and head coach Robert Saleh said he would be "good to go" for Sunday. The Bengals only have one player out this week, S Kyle Duggar, who is out with a quad injury. The big news is WRs Tee Higgins (groin/neck) and Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) are questionable. Chase did not practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday and was a full participant on Friday. Higgins did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday and was a full participant on Friday. The Dolphins have numerous players out this week. Of their questionable players, LB Jackson Woodard was limited on Friday after not practicing the other two days of the week, DT Kenneth Grant was limited on Wednesday and Thursday and was a full participant on Friday. RB Jaylen Wright was limited on Thursday and Friday, while CB Storm Duck was a full participant all week. The Raiders have a relatively short injury report this week. RB Ashton Jeanty is their only questionable player and he is dealing with a hamstring injury. He was downgraded from a full participant on Wednesday to a limited participant on Thursday, and he did not practice on Friday. TE Brock Bowers (knee) was not given a game designation after being a full participant on Thursday and Friday. The Patriots will once again be without their top defender, Christian Gonzalez, who is dealing with a shoulder injury. The defense will also be without cornerback Carlton Davis, who didn't practice last week. The good news for the defense is that they may get Christian Barmore back after missing him last week. They will also be withou [... truncated ...]

Packers signed Pierre Strong to 53-man roster due to RB Chris Brooks being out of practice
The Packers were missing a running back at Thursday’s practice and they signed another one to the active roster ahead of Sunday’s game against the Bears. Chris Brooks has missed both days this week with an ankle injury. The Packers signed Pierre Strong off of their practice squad and he joins Kaleb Johnson and MarShawn Lloyd as backfield options. The Packers were also without guards Aaron Banks (knee, toe) and Jacob Monk (quad). Offensive lineman Jager Burton (back) was limited after sitting out on Wednesday. Offensive lineman Anthony Belton (knee), defensive tackle Anthony Campbell (ankle), defensive end Lukas Van Ness (shoulder), wide receiver Savion Williams (ankle), and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt (ankle) were also limited participants.

Packers injury report for Wednesday's practice, with 4 players not participating
MarShawn Lloyd’s increased involvement could elevate his value as a flex option if Chris Brooks misses time
The Packers ran nine plays from the Tampa Bay 10-yard line or inside the 10. They converted two fourth downs in those nine plays, including Matthew Golden’s 2-yard touchdown reception. Green Bay leads the Buccaneers 7-0 with 12:54 remaining in the first half. The Packers had a third-and-2 at the Tampa Bay 10, and MarShawn Lloyd picked up 1 yard. Tucker Kraft took the direct snap on fourth down and gained 3 yards. Chris Brooks then ran for 3 yards before back-to-back incompletions by Jordan Love. Bucs cornerback Jacob Parrish, though, was called for defensive pass interference on the third-down throw to Golden. With the downs reset, Brooks lost 2 yards and Lloyd 3 yards before Love’s completion to Lloyd for 4 yards to the Tampa Bay 2. That set up Golden’s fourth-down score. Golden, who did not score last season as a rookie, has two touchdowns this season. Kraft has three catches for 30 yards today, and Brooks has 30 yards on four carries. Love is 7-of-9 for 45 yards
