RBs James Starks and DuJuan Harris

These two only come into play fantasy-wise if Lacy cannot go. Starks has shown ability over the years to make big plays in limited usage and spot starts. Harris also has experience starting from two seasons ago and has some explosive ability of his own. These two are not on the level of Lacy, but can still perform well when given the opportunity.

If Lacy sits out, expect them to combine for an OK outing, one that does just enough to give Rodgers time in the pocket and prevent the Jets from going all-out against the pass. Between the two, pick Starks over Harris.

Verdict: Only start Starks in emergency (Lacy sits, no other viable options)
Prediction (if Lacy sits):
Starks – 50 yards
Harris –  30 yards
