Editor’s note: Starks is out and Ty Montgomery will start in his place, per Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter. Christine Michael will get some snaps, too.
James Starks injury update: RB doubtful for Packers, fantasy owners [Update]
The Packers should be without their top RB vs. the Bears on Sunday.

The Green Bay Packers are listing James Starks as doubtful for their Week 15 matchup with the Chicago Bears.
Starks is in the NFL concussion protocol after being injured in a car crash this week. Thankfully, it was not too serious as Starks is believed to be fine, but likely will be unable to clear the protocol in time to play Sunday.
Since coming back from knee surgery, Starks has rushed for 103 yards on 39 carries with 13 catches for 84 yards and two scores. He was not worth a fantasy start before this latest injury, and now he is worth cutting in all leagues.
Fantasy Impact: With Starks likely out, Green Bay will rely heavily on Ty Montgomery and Christine Michael at running back this week. Montgomery is actually a sneaky fantasy play as he was splitting touches with Starks before. Michael has been getting limited touches and should be avoided in all leagues.
