Earlier today, it was reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter that former Green Bay Packers receiver Allen Lazard — one of quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ closest friends on the team — was considering two franchises for his services in free agency, with one being the New York Jets. Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, whoever that unnamed team was is no longer in the hunt. Rapoport said it “seems to be all Jets” on the Lazard front.
Rapoport would go on and note that the Jets “probably” would sign another former Packers receiver, Randall Cobb, if the Jets can land Rodgers in a trade.
