Green Bay Packers RB Alex Green will get the majority of the workload at RB, reports Ty Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Coach Mike McCarthy confirmed this news in a press conference Monday, saying there's "no reason to think he can't carry a full load."
Alex Green to get majority of snaps going forward: Fantasy implications
Alex Green will be the Packers’ main workhorse at RB now. We break down the fantasy implications.
Troy Taormina-US PRESSWIRE - Presswire
Green had 22 carries for 65 yards in the Packers' Sunday Night win over the Houston Texans.
Fantasy Impact: Not much of a surprise, given the Packers' depth issues at RB. With Cedric Benson out with a Lisfranc injury and Brandon Saine being put on IR with a torn ACL, the team is down to Green, James Starks and Johnny White in the backfield.
Green is hardly an inspiring fantasy play from week-to-week, but he has some minor flex value against the St. Louis Rams in Week 7. Starks remains little more than a roster stash.
