Allen Lazard Leads Team In Receiving Sunday
2 years agoGreen 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.
