2 years agoGreen Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will head to Minnesota to start the regular season. The third-year back led the Packers in carries last season, pairing again with Aaron Jones in 2022. Dillon should see an influx in carries in Week 1. Wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) is officially doubtful to suit up Sunday, leaving the Packers thin on pass-catching talent. Green Bay may have to lean on the run game if the passing attack struggles in the divisional matchup with the Vikings. Dillon averaged 13 touches per game in 2021 and could see more than that Sunday. Minnesota allowed the 10th-most points per game to the running back position last season and gave up the eighth-most rushing yards in the league. In a good matchup, Dillon is a solid RB2 option for fantasy managers in Week 1.--Ryan Larrison - RotoBaller
