Last season, Dillon missed the final three games of the year with a stinger. He returned this year ready to go but suffered another stinger during a joint practice with the Denver Broncos on Aug. 16.
He sought out different medical opinions and it was believed it was best if he sat out the season. Even though this is a tough pill to swallow, Dillon is staying positive and is ready to root for his brothers.
The Boston College product was slated to be a key reserve behind Josh Jacobs but that won't be the case. His future in Green Bay is up in the air now but the focus is on rehab and getting back to 100%.
