Bottom Line

Volume propelled Lazard to WR3 range in 2022. He wasn’t particularly efficient, though. And at 28 (in December), we may have seen his best.

His connection with QB Aaron Rodgers is the key here. The duo has five years of experience together. The Jets also signed him for $22 million guaranteed, likely at the request of Rodgers.

There’s room for him to see ~100 targets and deliver as a spot-start WR3 behind Garrett Wilson.

What We Learned Last Year
  • Lazard’s first season without Davante Adams produced career highs in targets (100), catches (60), and yards (788).
  • He was a solid target earner with a 21% target share in his healthy games.
  • He missed one game with an ankle injury; one with a shoulder.
  • The former UDFA finished as top-24 PPR WR in five games. He maxed out as the WR9, his only top-12 finish.
  • Overall, he ranked as the WR34.
  • Among 41 WRs with 90+ targets, Lazard ranked 35th in catch rate, 19th in yards per catch, 32nd in yards per route run, and 30th in Pro Football Focus receiving grade.
  • It’s worth noting that Aaron Rodgers’ play fell off last year.
    • His yards per attempt, adjusted completion rate, and QBR each declined.
What to Expect in 2023
  • Lazard signed in New York for a surprising sum: 4 years, $44 million ($22 million guaranteed)
  • The 28-year-old (in December) spent three seasons in Green Bay with new OC Nathaniel Hackett, so there’s no major learning curve.
    • HC Matt LaFleur called plays, but during Hackett's time as OC in Green Bay, the team ranked 16th, 24th, and 15th in pass attempts.
  • Lazard spent five seasons with QB Aaron Rodgers. There’s little doubt Rodgers requested this reunion.
  • Rodgers’ play dipped a bit in 2022, but he still profiles as a top-10 QB at 39 years old.
  • The Jets return WR Garrett Wilson as a clear target hog. His rookie year turned up a big 25% target share.
  • New York added WRs Mecole Hardman and Randall Cobb (another Rodgers bestie) in free agency. They’ll remain role players.

Aaron Rodgers, QB NYJ

11:05am EDT 9/12/23

Confirmed: Torn Achilles for Aaron Rodgers

An MRI confirmed that Jets QB Aaron Rodgers has a torn Achilles, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That ends Rodgers' season after just four snaps. Turning 40 in December, Rodgers' football future is uncertain. He's signed with the Jets for two more seasons, although he carries a $51.5 million cap hit in 2025. The Rodgers injury puts Zach Wilson back under center for now. We'll see if the Jets -- with Super Bowl aspirations -- make a move at QB. For now, all Jets skill-position players are fantasy losers.

Jets HC Robert Saleh said after Monday night's win over the Bills that the team fears QB Aaron Rodgers has a torn Achilles. He's scheduled for an MRI on Monday to confirm. "It's not good," Saleh added. A torn Achilles would end Rodgers' season -- and put the 39-year-old's football future in serious doubt. It'd also leave QB Zach Wilson as New York's starter. That'd obviously be a significant downgrade for all of the Jets' skill-position players.

Jets WR Garrett Wilson wrangled an incredible TD in Monday night's victory to go along with 5 catches for 34 receiving yards vs. the Bills. Teammate Allen Lazard led the team with 46 receiving yards on 2 catches. HC Robert Saleh shared in the post-game press conference that "the MRI is probably going to confirm what [the Jets] already think" is an Achilles injury for QB Aaron Rodgers. We'll learn more about those details on Tuesday. Should that be the case and Rodgers misses time, fantasy managers will have to significantly readjust expectations for Jets' pass-catchers in 2023. Stay tuned for more information.

Jets WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) returned to practice on Tuesday. He ended up missing about a week but will be good to go for the season opener. Lazard should be New York's No. 2 WR this season, behind Garrett Wilson.

Jets WR Allen Lazard sprained the AC joint in his shoulder in Wednesday's practice, HC Robert Saleh said. Lazard is expected to be ready for Week 1, Saleh added. The Jets just lost WR Corey Davis to retirement, so they're thinned out at the position right now. We'll let you know when Lazard gets back on the field.

Lazard followed Aaron Rodgers to the Jets, but how long will the duo stick together? (Rodgers turns 40 in January.) The Jets clearly showed faith in Lazard, 27, by giving him $22 million guaranteed in free agency.
