Packers' Eddie Lacy turns to P90X founder to help lose weight

INDIANAPOLIS -- Eddie Lacy has turned to a popular workout phenomenon as part of his offseason plan to get into the kind of shape Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy wants for his No. 1 running back.

McCarthy confirmed on Thursday at the NFL scouting combine that his overweight running back consulted with P90X founder Tony Horton since the end of the season.

McCarthy called out Lacy for being overweight.

“Eddie will take care of business,” McCarthy said. “I have great confidence that he will. I think we’ll see definitely a different guy in April, and more importantly in July.
