Eddie Lacy is not overweight...well, that's what the 230-pound Green Bay Packers running back will tell you at least.

Lacy told the Journal Sentinel that he's "cool" with his current weight, and he has provided over 1,100 yards in each of his first two NFL seasons to back it up. Cutting weight simply was not a priority for Green Bay's featured running back this offseason; getting some rest was.

After 288 total touches last season (246 rushes, 42 receptions), Lacy enjoyed some well-deserved relaxation in the months following the Packers' playoff departure.

"It took my body a long time," Lacy told the Journal Sentinel, "for all the hits and stuff to go away. Resting definitely helps and after that I got after it a little bit."

Lacy just turned 25 years old and is quickly developing into one of the league's biggest stars.
