Green Bay Packers rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd missed Friday’s practice due to appendicitis and won’t be available on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
The Packers designated Lloyd to return from injured reserve on Monday and he was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday with ankle and hamstring injuries.
Lloyd, 23, landed on injured reserve with a high ankle sprain on Sept. 17. The third-round draft pick has played in only one game, rushing six times for 15 yards and catching one pass for 3 yards in a 16-10 Week 2 win against the Indianapolis Colts.
Packers coach Matt LaFleur told reporters the team will talk to the league about a possible extension to Lloyd’s 21-day practice window to return to the active roster, considering appendicitis recoveries can take two or three weeks.
Offensive lineman Jordan Morgan (shoulder) also will miss Sunday’s game. Defensive lineman Colby Wooden (shoulder) is doubtful while cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) and safety Evan Williams (hamstring) are questionable.
