Green Bay Packers will be preparing for free agency next month and one of the players that will possibly be on the free agent market is running back AJ Dillon. Dillon is 25 years old and missed the final few games of the season due to injury.

Rob Demovsky, an ESPN staff writer wrote about AJ Dillon’s future with the franchise by saying:
“No one has embedded themselves in the community more than Dillon, who married a Green Bay native and was dubbed the unofficial “Mayor of Door County” for how much time he spends and how much he promotes the Wisconsin summer vacation area. Dillon had plenty of chances this past season, while Jones was injured, to prove he’s a No. 1 running back, but he performed more like a No. 2. He might be a cheap option to re-sign, with the source estimating his annual salary at the lowest end of the market — between $1.5 million and $3 million. Dillon missed the final three games, playoffs included, because of a severe stinger.”
Dillon a season ago with the Packers rushed for 613 yards on 178 carries and two touchdowns. He averaged 3.4 yards per carry. A.J. Dillon also caught 22 passes for 223 yards and zero touchdowns, along with averaging 10.1 yards per reception.
The NFL Draft in 2024 Will Probably Be the Running Back Replacements For AJ Dillon On the Green Bay Packers Next Season

General manager Brian Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur will probably use the NFL Draft in 2024 to fix its running back room. They will have 11 selections and probably use at least one or two of those selections on a running back. AJ Dillon didn’t prove himself much as a top running back.

He is more of a second running back. Green Bay doesn’t want to give him the money that he thinks he is going to get. The Packers are better off drafting younger running backs with more upside. Dillon doesn’t have much upside left. Aaron Jones is going to be 30 during the middle of the 2024 NFL regular season and will be in the final year of his contract.
This is more about the future for the Packers. Dillon doesn’t fit into the Green Bay Packers’ future plans.
