James Starks injury update: Probable but limited fantasy upside
James Starks is probable for Week 8 against the Jaguars. We break down the fantasy implications.
Brett Davis-US PRESSWIRE
Starks has had a minimal role this season, with just five rushing attempts for 11 yards.
Fantasy Impact: Starks was healthy in Week 7 but did not play a single snap, as the Packers were confident that Alex Green would keep their run game afloat. However, Green got just 35 yards on 20 carries.
Even with Green’s inconsistency, I don’t really see Starks getting more involved - the team clearly has no faith in him. He belongs on the waiver wire in all fantasy leagues.
