Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard was initially thought to have left the field during Tuesday’s OTA practice and was seen walking off with trainers. Naturally, there was a concern considering it was the first practice open to the media, so it was our first chance to really see the 2023 Jets in action.
Fortunately, Lazard is just fine and took to Twitter to clear the air on what exactly happened to him. He simply took a shot, well, down there.
I’m good y’all 🙏🏽 not sure why they didn’t report that I practiced the rest of the day at 100% but I’m good lol
Just got hit in the gonads 🫠

It almost feels fitting that the first day of media availability for Jets practice had to have some sort of drama, between Lazard and Aaron Rodgers’ injury. Fortunately, everyone is just fine and there is nothing to worry about for the newest offensive pairing for the Jets.
