Lazard would be a massive loss to what might already be the worst receiving corps in the NFL. The Packers face their toughest test of the season as they travel to Buffalo to take on the Bills on Sunday. No Lazard would leave quarterback Aaron Rodgers with a plethora of inexperienced pass-catchers that lack any chemistry with him on the field. This is going to be a situation to keep an eye on heading into the weekend.
In 2022, Lazard has made 26 receptions on 41 targets for 340 yards and four touchdowns. If he is unable to go, expect Romeo Doubs and Sammy Watkins to see an uptick in targets.
Green Bay Packers vs. Buffalo Bills Odds
