TL;DR

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon is dealing with a broken thumb sustained during Monday's game against the New York Giants. Dillon, who has never played with a broken thumb before, is uncertain if he can continue playing with the injury. The thumb is crucial for a running back, affecting ball security and making it easier for opposing teams to exploit the injury. Meanwhile, Aaron Jones, who has been out with a knee injury, returned to practice and is hopeful for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Packers' running back situation is further complicated by the re-signing of Patrick Taylor and the return of rookies Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks from ankle injuries.
