GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Although the move was not injury related, James Starks might have been the Green Bay Packers’ No. 1 running back this week no matter what because Eddie Lacy’s groin injury apparently remains an issue.
Lacy, who lost his starting job to Starks this week, was listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions. Lacy couldn’t finish last Sunday’s loss at the Carolina Panthers because of the injury but has been able to practice, albeit on a limited basis, this week.
Three other players were also listed as questionable on Friday: cornerback Sam Shields (shoulder), receiver Ty Montgomery (ankle) and linebacker Mike Neal (hip).
