Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard signed his restricted contract tender on Monday, according to Pro Football Talk and confirmed by ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
The Packers gave Lazard the second-round restricted tender. It is worth $3.986 million for the 2022 season. After the season, Lazard will become an unrestricted free agent.
In 2021, Lazard set career-highs for catches (40), receiving yards (513) and touchdowns (eight).
Lazard hasn’t participated during the offseason workout program and wasn’t in attendance for the mandatory minicamp last week, although he wasn’t required as an unsigned player.
