2023 Fantasy Outlook
Dillon remains an overqualified backup, but at least one who plays more than most other backup running backs. Indeed, in the last two years the Packers have shifted away from Aaron Jones as the clear starter and implemented a rotation of quasi-equals similar to how the Saints once used Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram. Dillon is the powerful counterpart to the slashing Jones, and it seems like tasks will continue to split between the two on a situational basis. As much as that might be ideal for the Packers offense, it isn't for the fantasy production of either player. Dillon might be an RB1 if Jones were to miss time, just as Jones was a fantasy RB1 before Dillon's involvement increased the last two years. Aaron Rodgers' departure this offseason brings with it the threat of Green Bay's offense declining for a second straight year, but it might also work out for Dillon if the Packers run the ball more often with Jordan Love under center and remain reasonably efficient overall.

Underwhelms in season finale
Dillon rushed nine times for 33 yards and failed to reel in any of his three targets in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Lions.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old running back was in a near-even split in playing time with Aaron Jones, as the two backs played 33 and 31 of the Packers' 60 offensive snaps, respectively. Dillon will enter the final year of his rookie contract in the 2023, and with Jones already on the books, a timeshare arrangement between the two will likely remain in place for another season. Dillon finished the season with 770 yards and seven touchdowns while adding 28 catches for 206 yards.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
2020
Through three games in 2021, it looked like Dillon was stuck in the same role he had as a
rookie, getting just a handful of carries per week behind Aaron Jones. That all changed against
the Steelers in Week 4 when the two backs had nearly identical workloads and production.
From that point on, Dillon and Jones were in a timeshare, and while both players had solid
numbers, neither was able to pull away from the other. Dillon's best fantasy game of the season came in Week 10 when he racked up 128 total yards and two touchdowns with the help of a 50-yard catch. The bruising back out of Boston College is listed at the same weight as Derrick
Henry, but at three inches shorter, Dillon looks more like a traditional fullback. He doesn't play
like one, though, as he has the speed and agility to do more than just thunder through
defenders. Dillon also has shown growth since entering the NFL, even emerging as a receiving
asset last year with 34 catches and no drops. Jones is still in town for at least one more season
before things get dicey with his contract, and Green Bay promoted from within to replace
offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett after his departure for Denver, so there's no reason to
think the backfield arrangement will see any big changes. Barring a serious injury to one or the
other, Dillon and Jones put a ceiling on each other once again in 2022.
