Allen Lazard An Emergency Option
5 years agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard gets a good matchup in Week 16 against the 20th-ranked secondary of the Minnesota Vikings. Lazard broke out for 100 yards and a touchdown against the Giants two weeks ago but has been quiet since. Of all players with at least 30 targets, Lazard ranks ninth in yards per target with 10.4. It speaks volumes about the trust between Aaron Rodgers and the 24-year-old. The veteran QB could look downfield for Lazard a couple times against a suspect secondary, making him a last-ditch option this week. Lazard is a good backup option for owners who get hit by last-minute injuries, considering he plays on Monday night.
