Allen Lazard Week 4 Outlook - Broncos at Jets

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 26th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Lazard has been a happy surprise with Rodgers back. He is the WR18 in fantasy with a 17% target share, a 26.9% air-yard share, 1.80 YPRR, and a 19.7% first-read share. Lazard is tied for the team lead with five red zone targets. With Garrett Wilson likely getting shadowed by Patrick Surtain, Lazard could see more targets this week. Denver has the fifth-highest rate of single high this season (61.7%). Lazard's market share is relatively unchanged against single-high, but his YPRR has climbed to 2.19. If Surtain is following Wilson around all day, Lazard likely matches up with Riley Moss (75% catch rate and 111.5 passer rating) for most of the game. He's a strong flex play again this week.
