BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Through the first month of the season, Allen Lazard leads the Jets in receiving yards (206) and receiving touchdowns (three). While Garrett Wilson has faced a slew of elite cornerbacks through four weeks, his production with Aaron Rodgers has been far from what fantasy managers have hoped for.
Rodgers is known for relying on pass-catchers he has a strong rapport with, and Lazard fits the bill after they spent five seasons together with the Green Bay Packers. In 2021 and 2022 combined, Lazard caught 14 touchdowns from Rodgers, and he looks to be locked into a significant role with him in New York.
Lazard has reached at least 10 PPR fantasy points in three of four games and has seen at least eight targets in half of those contests. Based on early-season results, he should be picked up in all deeper fantasy formats, and even 12-team leaguers can give him a look if you need help at wide receiver, as many people do, given the whopping numbers of injuries to the position.
