AJ Dillon: Packers optimistic about RB’s return

Green Bay Packers RB AJ Dillon (questionable, thumb) is “in a better place this week than last week,” and head coach Matt LaFleur “feel[s] good about where [he’s] at.”

Fantasy Impact: Dillon is recovering from a broken thumb that has forced him to practice with a cast on, not ideal for a ball carrier when considering ball security. But he seems to be nearing a return, though it’s unclear if that will be in Week 16 or Week 17. Aaron Jones performed well in Week 15 as a solo act (13-53-0) and provides RB2 value, but if Dillon is active, Jones takes a slight hit and Dillon offers low-end Flex value.
