Allen Lazard - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Aaron Rodgers' recent resurgence for the Jets is showing he might have plenty left beyond this year

Aaron Rodgers turned back the clock the past few weeks and reignited talk about whether the New York Jets quarterback has another quality season left in him

No catches on four targets Lazard didn't catch any of his four targets in Sunday's 32-25 win over the Jaguars.

Impact Lazard has displayed butter fingers throughout his tenure with the Jets, and he had an especially costly drop Sunday on a dime from Aaron Rodgers that should have been a 30-yard touchdown. Anders Carlson missed a field-goal attempt on the very next play, though Lazard's struggles ultimately didn't prevent the Jets from notching their fourth win of the season. For the second consecutive game since Lazard returned from IR, Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson combined for well over 200 yards (254), leaving limited opportunities for the team's No. 3 wideout.

One catch in return from IR Lazard (chest) caught his only target for 18 yards in Sunday's 32-26 overtime loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Seeing his first action since Week 7, Lazard played 78 percent of snaps on offense, so his lack of production wasn't due to a lack of playing time. He's a distant third on the Jets' wide receiver depth chart behind Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams, who combined for 223 yards and a touchdown on 21 targets against the Dolphins. Lazard will be a touchdown-dependent Week 15 fantasy option against a Jaguars defense that's giving up 26.5 points per game.

Officially available Sunday Lazard (chest) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Lazard is officially cleared to return after missing the past five games due to a chest injury. The 28-year-old might struggle to see opportunities as the No. 3 target behind Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams especially given the Jets' struggles passing the ball in recent weeks.

Returning from IR Lazard (chest) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Impact Lazard has been practicing without limitations and is presumably healthy enough to suit up for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, though the Jets will still need to perform an official transaction to put him back on the 53-man roster. Prior to getting hurt, Lazard had 412 receiving yards and five touchdowns through seven games. All but one of those games came prior to the Jets trading for Davante Adams, and Lazard likely won't see as many targets while slotting in as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Adams and Garrett Wilson.

DECEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Practices fully Wednesday Lazard (chest) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Lazard was officially designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he looks to have a decent shot of suiting up for the Jets' Week 14 date against the Dolphins on Sunday. Xavier Gipson and rookie Malachi Corley have been handling third and fourth receiver duties behind target-commanders Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams. Lazard will be fighting for scraps behind those two once he does return to the field.

DECEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Returning to practice The Jets are in line to open the practice window of Lazard (chest), Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.

Impact The Jets will have 21 days to decide whether to activate Lazard (who has been on IR since Oct. 31) to their 53-man roster. For his part, interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich noted Wednesday that he's hopeful the wideout will be ready by the end of the week. If Lazard is available for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, he'd add depth to a WR corps that's led by Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams, a context that could limit the veteran pass-catcher's initial volume in New York's offense.

Officially placed on IR The Jets have placed Lazard (chest) on IR, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

Impact As a result, the soonest Lazard can return to action is Dec. 8 against the Dolphins. While he's sidelined, Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Mike Williams will continue to lead the Jets' wideout corps, with Xavier Gipson, Irvin Charles and Malachi Corley in reserve.

Reportedly headed to IR The Jets are slated to place Lazard (chest) on IR, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Once the anticipated move is official, Lazard will be in line to miss at least four games, with his earliest possible return date being Dec. 8 against the Dolphins. In his looming absence, Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Mike Williams will continue to lead the Jets' wideout corps. Prior to sustaining his injury, Lazard caught 30 of his 44 targets for 412 yards and five TDs in seven games.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Thursday Lazard (chest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Texans.

Impact Lazard, who was also inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots, will miss his second game in a row, with his next chance to suit up arriving Nov. 10 against the Cardinals. In his continued absence, Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Mike Williams will continue to lead the Jets' WR corps in Week 9, with Xavier Gipson, Irvin Charles and Malachi Corley in reserve.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

DNP again Lazard (chest) was a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Lazard's absence should not be surprising, as interim coach Jeff Ulbrich previously indicated the pass catcher is considered week-to-week. Barring a quick turnaround on a short week, it looks like he has an outside chance at suiting up Thursday against the Texans. As a result, Mike Willias could be in line for WR3 duties behind Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Considered week-to-week Speaking Monday, coach Jeff Ulbrich said Lazard (chest) is considered week-to-week, Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Lazard is not expected to go on injured reserve, but it does sounds like he's going to moss some more time after not playing in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Patriots. With Lazard out, Mike Williams handled WR3 duties for the Jets, but he didn't see a single target on Aaron Rodgers' 28 pass attempts.
