“You can tell he’s very hungry this year.”

Actually, Lacy has been hungry for a while, if his Twitter account is any indication.

In all seriousness, Lacy appears determined to lose some of the weight he was playing with in 2015. Soon after McCarthy’s comments, NFL Media reported Lacy’s goal was to lose about 30 pounds.

Green Bay Press-Gazette’s Ryan Wood, who spoke with Sirmans, writes it “sounds like Eddie Lacy is taking offseason seriously.” His coaches seemed pleased with his progress as well.

“A big guy with incredible feet,” Sirmans said. “I think he’s a guy who definitely has some staying power in this league for sure.”
