Much has been made of the weight of running back Eddie Lacy over the years. Personally, I couldn’t care less. I’ve said it time and again — the guy can weigh 300 pounds as long as he’s toting the football effectively.
And even during the season when Fat Mike called him out for his weight — there’s the pot calling the kettle black — Lacy averaged more than four yards per carry. And even when he showed up after working out all offseason in 2016 and we could all see he was a big, fat bastard, it didn’t matter.
