Adam Schefter tweeted Monday, Nov. 2, the player is running back RJ Dillon.

Packers’ RB AJ Dillon is out for Thursday night’s game against the 49ers due to COVID-19 protocols, league sources tell ESPN. Dillon played Sunday and there have to be concerns about his offensive teammates.

Aaron Jones still uncertain. Jamaal Williams is lone reliable RB.
