Packers' James Starks: Opportunites are few in Week 3

Starks had one carry for minus-one yard and one reception for nine yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

Analysis:

Starks' opportunities were minimal Sunday with fellow running back Eddie Lacy running the ball effectively (6.1 YPC on 17 attempts). Lacy has averaged 5.0 yards per carry on his 43 attempts this season, while Starks has averaged just 0.8 yards on his 12 carries, so look for Lacy to continue seeing the bulk of the work in the Packers' backfield coming out of the team's Week 4 bye.
