Despite some recent speculation that Packers tailback James Starks might be on the roster bubble in Green Bay, Bill Huber of Packer Report reports that Starks’ roster spot is “safe” as final cuts approach.
A source told Huber that Starks will join Cedric Benson and Alex Green in the Packers’ backfield to open the season. Starks is currently recovering from turf toe, but the Packers seem to believe he will recover enough to be a 2012 contributor.
In related news, we previously passed along eight of Green Bay’s early cuts. Rob Demovsky of the Green Bay Press-Gazette uncovered five more.
Per Huber, the Packers have also released or waived defensive tackle Daniel Muir, running back Marc Tyler, wide receiver Diondre Borel, and fullback Nic Cooper.
