2 years agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) did not practice on Thursday ahead of the team's Week 1 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. This is something to monitor leading up to kickoff, as another missed practice on Friday would make it increasingly likely that the 26-year-old will be held out of action. When asked if Lazard needs to practice ahead of Sunday's opener, Head coach Matt LaFleur said that "they have to have the ability to prove they can play. We don't want anybody in jeopardy to further hurt themselves or have a risk of a setback." If Lazard is able to suit up, he can be valued as a WR3 option for fantasy managers as he figures to be the No.1 target for Aaron Rodgers.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
