Eddie Lacy isn’t closing the door on a return to the Green Bay Packers.

And it doesn’t sound like the Packers are, either.

“Talking to my agent, the Packers have been very vocal about having me back there,” Lacy said in an interview on Adam Schefter’s "Know Them From Adam" podcast that will be available on Tuesday.

Lacy, who is coming off ankle surgery that limited him to just five games last season, will be an unrestricted free agent if he doesn’t re-sign with the Packers before March 9.

“I’m trying not to think about all of that right now,” Lacy said. “I’m just trying to make sure whether I end up in Green Bay or somewhere, I’m in the best shape or I’m in the best position I can be in personally, so when it’s time for me to contribute to whatever team that it is that they’re getting 100 percent of me.”

I like him....if the price is right. His past injury problems would keep me from offering him big time money.

He played hurt and was lost for the season as a result. What does it look like to potential free agents when we can't keep guys healthy for onr thing, and for another we let them play hurt and become seriously injured? It's a damn joke.

Would YOU want to play here? Maybe for an extra couple mil. It's a cultural Siberia for non whites too.

Yes, there isn't the "big party" things like the big cities have, but if that is why you take an NFL job, maybe you don't want that guy on your team anyway. You want dedicated football people. Just my opinion of course.
