The Facts: Morency, acquired in an early-season trade with Houston last year, showed some quickness and gained 430 yards and averaged 4.5 yards a carry last season, but there are doubts whether he could withstand the load of a No. 1 back at 5-10, 212 pounds. "I couldn't tell you that," Thompson said of whether Morency can be a primary back for a full season. "I think he was kind of like that in college. He's never had that opportunity in the pros."
Diehards Line:Besides Morency, the Packers have No. 3 back Noah Herron plus undrafted Arliss Beach, who was on injured reserve all last season. ... There doesn't appear to be a high demand for any of the remaining backs in free agency after Travis Henry signed with Denver on Monday, so the Packers don't appear to be in a hurry to sign another running back.
