GREEN BAY, Wis. -- With the Dallas Cowboys and rookie running back sensation Ezekiel Elliott next on the schedule, the Green Bay Packers probably need their No. 1 rusher Eddie Lacy more than ever.
Especially the way Lacy ran in Sunday night’s 23-16 win over the New York Giants.
The problem is Lacy couldn’t finish the game. He left late in the third quarter after Giants linebacker Keenan Robinson landed on his left ankle at the end of a 2-yard run. It left Lacy with 81 yards on 11 carries, a whopping 7.
