Allen Lazard Week 13 Outlook - Raiders at Jets

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 3rd 2020, 10:43am EST

After taking a massive hit on Sunday night against the Bears, you wondered if Lazard was going to miss some time. Surprisingly, he returned to the game and finished, so we must assume he'll be good to go. Unfortunately, it's not a great matchup for him. We just watched Nickell Robey-Coleman essentially remove Tyler Lockett from the game on Monday night, who happens to be the cornerback Lazard will see most of the day. Robey-Coleman hasn't been what I'd call great this year, though it may have taken him time to adjust to his new team. The only slot-heavy receivers who've finished with more than 50 yards against the Eagles were Tyler Boyd, who saw 13 targets, and Cooper Kupp, who finished with five catches for 81 yards. Lazard has totaled 10 targets in two games since returning, and considering we love Adams this week, it's tough to find the production for Lazard against a team that's allowed just 10 top-36 wide receivers on the year. He's stuck in the low-end WR4/high-end WR5 range.
