It is easily the question Mason Crosby has heard the most -- from friends, family, fans -- since the Green Bay Packers returned to work last month for their offseason program.

 

How does Eddie Lacy look?

After back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons to start his career, Lacy finished last year with only 758 yards, although he still had his share of productive moments.

“Eddie looks great. He’s killing all the runs, working out hard,” Crosby said. “Obviously it’s going to be exciting to get back on the field. I know everyone’s looking forward to seeing [him]. That’s the big talk, ‘What’s Eddie going to look like? What’s Eddie he going to be like this next year?’ Just his presence, how he’s been around [the team], it feels like he’s where he needs to be and what he probably wants to be playing at coming into this year.”
