Allen Lazard amasses 82 yards, touchdown in Packers' win
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught 4 passes on 4 targets for 63 yards and 1 touchdown, with a 19-yard rush, in a 43-34, Week 1 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.
What It Means:
Lazard tied for fourth in targets behind Davante Adams (17), Marquez Valdes-Scantling (6), and Aaron Jones (6). Although Valdes-Scantling drew more targets, Lazard out-snapped his fellow receiver 68-42 while operating as the clear No. 2 receiver. Either way, Adams is going to dominate targets in this offense while Lazard and the other playmakers compete for secondary roles. The Packers will host the Detroit Lions in Week 2.
Lazard scored 16.2 FanDuel points in Week 1. numberFire's models currently project him for 8.0 FanDuel points and 5.4 targets in Week 2.
