Packers' James Starks: Has surgery on torn meniscus

Starks is slated to sit "several" weeks after undergoing surgery on a torn meniscus Sunday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The Packers' backfield will be without its primary reserve for the foreseeable future, which will likely spur a round of workouts and a signing in the next few days. Of course, Eddie Lacy will receive the bulk of the RB touches, but a street free agent or practice squad member Don Jackson could soon be occupying Starks' typical role in the offense.
