Eddie Lacy makes impactful return to Packers practice

If there was any concern about the severity of Eddie Lacy's sore foot, which led to him being pulled from practice on Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers running back quickly snuffed it out. On Thursday, Lacy returned to practice, according to Jason Wilde of ESPN Wisconsin.
