Allen Lazard officially a healthy Week 12 scratch for Jets
New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard is a healthy scratch against the Miami Dolphins on Friday afternoon in Week 12.
What It Means:
Lazard dropped his only target last week and he's been struggling with drops all season. Jason Brownlee could see more snaps behind Garrett Wilson and Xavier Gipson in Friday's matinee. Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert may also be more involved in the passing game.
The Dolphins are allowing the 11th-most FanDuel points per game to wide receivers this season, but according to numberFire's opponent-adjusted efficiency rankings, they have the ninth-best pass defense in the league. Our models project Wilson to lead the Jets with 9.8 targets on Friday afternoon, followed by Breece Hall (4.8) and Conklin (4.4).
