Allen Lazard Week 2 Outlook - 49ers at Jets

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 17th 2020, 9:15am EDT

While Davante Adams played 70 snaps, Lazard was right behind him playing 68 snaps. He's the clear-cut No. 2 receiver in this offense, even if Valdez-Scantling saw two more targets in the first game. Lazard caught all four of his targets for 63 yards and a touchdown, amounting to the No. 13 wide receiver on the week in half-PPR formats. The Lions are really hurting at cornerback and might be starting Amani Oruwariye, Darryl Roberts, and Tony McRae this week. Lazard would see a mix of all three of them, as he played 57.9 percent of his snaps in the slot. That's good to know because we just saw Anthony Miller tag this Lions defense for 76 yards and a touchdown on just six targets last week. Over Lazard's last three regular season games, he's produced 4/63/1, 4/69/1, and 5/45/0. We may not be there just yet, but he has the looks of a solid WR4 moving forward and one who possesses upside should Aaron Rodgers be on a "don't forget about me" campaign.
