We have no earthly idea if the Jets agreeing to sign former Green Bay Packers receiver Allen Lazard to a four-year, $44 million contract with $22 million guaranteed brings Aaron Rodgers that much closer to agreeing to the trade he swore he wouldn’t drag out, but here we are for the moment. The deal does amplify the Jets’ receiver room, already full of interesting talents like Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, Corey Davis, and Denzel Mims, who had no actual quarterback to throw them the football in 2022.
What does Lazard bring to Gen Green? Size, deep speed, blocking ability, and toughness at the catch point. Would the Jets have gone after him, all things being equal? Who the heck knows?
