Allen Lazard

Jets placed WR Allen Lazard (chest) on injured reserve.

Lazard was ruled out for Week 9 on Wednesday but will now miss at least four games while recovering from his chest injury. The veteran receiver has caught 30 passes for 412 yards and five touchdowns this season and last played in Week 7 against the Steelers. Even when he returns, Lazard doesn’t figure to have a big role with Davante Adams now in the mix. The earliest Lazard can return is in Week 14 against the Dolphins.
