Packers' Jones Provides Temporary Fix to Ailing Ground Game

It's not Eddie Lacy and James Starks, but rather Ty Montgomery and Jamaal Williams being added to the Green Bay Packers' injury report.

Heading into last year's Thursday night match-up with the Chicago Bears, both Lacy and Starks were scratched off as inactives due to injury, leaving the workload in the backfield to Montgomery in what was the first true glimpse into what he could do as the team's primary tailback. He also had Knile Davis and Don Jackson backing him up.

This time around, Montgomery is all but solidified as the Packers' starting running back, however, his fortunes took a turn for the worst Thursday night.
