Allen Lazard Inks Contract With The Jets

Free-agent wide receiver Allen Lazard has agreed to a four-year, $44 million contract with the Jets. The veteran led Green Bay in receiving last season, finishing with 788 yards and six touchdowns, benefiting from the offseason departure of Davante Adams. Of course, the acquisition of Lazard may mean Aaron Rodgers is on his way to New York. However, no matter who is under center for the Jets during the 2022-23 campaign, Lazard will have plenty of competition for snaps and targets. As a result, his fantasy outlook isn't as promising as it was a year ago. But if Rodgers does end up in New York, Lazard could be his preferred target, at least early in the season, while familiarizing himself with a new receiving corps.

Jets Working To Reach Agreement With Allen Lazard

The New York Jets are actively working to reach an agreement with Green Bay Packers free-agent wide receiver Allen Lazard on Tuesday, according to league sources. There is another team involved with Lazard, though, and no final decision has been made, but the Jets are trying to reunite Lazard with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett. The Jets are also the favorites to trade for quarterback Aaron Rodgers if he wants to continue his playing career in 2023. Lazard was one of Rodgers top targets last year, so you can connect the dots. The 27-year-old wideout had a career-high 60 receptions for a career-high 788 yards and six touchdowns on 100 targets in 15 games last year, but a move to the Jets would hurt his fantasy value. He would no longer be the top dog in a receiving depth chart that already includes Garrett Wilson, Corey Davis and Elijah Moore.

Packers Rumors: Rodgers, Love, Lazard

We are now 10 days away from the start of the 2023 league year, and there is still no clarity on the Aaron Rodgers situation. In February, a report surfaced indicating that the Packers’ entire power structure is “done with Rodgers” and ready to turn the QB reins over to Jordan Love, while a subsequent […]

Allen Lazard Catches Lone Packers Touchdown In Week 18

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught 4-of-6 targets for 41 yards and one touchdown during the team's 20-16 loss to the Detroit Lions. The 27-year-old never reached his full potential in 2022, having high expectations touted as the new No. 1 target for quarterback Aaron Rodgers. After missing the season opener, Lazard caught a touchdown in five of the next seven games but only finished as a WR1 twice during that time. Once rookie Christian Watson started to emerge, the fifth-year receiver saw his target share take a big hit, and his touchdown upside completely evaporated. He proved to be one of the most trusted targets of Rodgers over the last month of the season, but it was not enough to save his fantasy season from ultimately being a disappointment. Heading into 2023, Rodgers' status with the team is in limbo, and Christian Watson is the clear top target of the future. With other receivers potentially entering the fold, Lazard will be a late-round fantasy option with limited upside come August.

Allen Lazard A Viable Flex Option Against Detroit

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will face the division rival Detroit Lions Sunday night. The 27-year-old has amassed 17 targets over the past two weeks but has been held out of the end zone since Week 9. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has not thrown multiple touchdown passes since Week 12, lowering the fantasy scoring ceiling of all pass catchers in Green Bay. However, with teammate Christian Watson (hip) being limited due to injury, Lazard has a chance to capitalize this week against Detroit. The Lions allow the third-most fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position and have given up the second-most receiving yards. If the targets continue to go his way, the fifth-year receiver could be in for a solid fantasy performance. Consider Lazard a high-end FLEX option with a top 24 ceiling.

Allen Lazard Leads Packers In Receiving During Blowout Win

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught 5-of-6 targets and gained 59 yards during the team's 41-17 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. None of the Packers' wide receivers were able to capitalize during the plus matchup against Minnesota due to how good the defense was playing. Green Bay threw the ball just only 27 times and completed only 17 passes, leading to no receiver having an outstanding performance as many hoped coming into the game. The 27-year-old led the team in all receiving categories but failed to reach double-digit points in Half-PPR formats. With Christian Watson finishing the game unscathed, he should be much closer to 100% next week against Detroit. Lazard could still lead the team in targets next week, but he should be considered a fringe FLEX option for those playing their fantasy football title game in Week 18.

Allen Lazard Has Flex Appeal Against Minnesota

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. The 27-year-old was heavily involved last week for the first time in a month, catching five of 11 targets for 61 yards. His touchdown drought extended to six games, but he has a chance to break that streak this week against Minnesota. The Vikings' defense allows the third-most fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position, and rookie Christian Watson (hip) is questionable to play this week. If Watson sits out, then Lazard becomes a much more reliable FLEX option with a top-24 ceiling. If Watson is active, then the fifth-year receiver is still a viable FLEX option, just with a lower ceiling. Lazard has proven to possess a low-scoring floor over the past six weeks, but he could be vital if the Packers hope to win against their division rival on Sunday.

Allen Lazard Leads Team In Receiving Sunday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught 5-of-11 targets and gained 61 yards during the team's 26-20 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 16. Teammate Christian Watson did exit this game due to a knee injury, but it was an encouraging performance for the 27-year-old, who has struggled to garner much attention from quarterback Aaron Rodgers over the past three games. Lazard has not found the end zone since Week 9 but could increase his chances dramatically if Watson misses next week due to the injury. A showdown with the division-rival Minnesota Vikings would be a great bounce-back spot for the fifth-year receiver, but he will not be considered a top-tier FLEX option unless Watson is out.
