Allen Lazard Has Flex Appeal Against Minnesota
2 years agoGreen 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.
