Allen Lazard Won't Play Against Cardinals
3 years agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will be out for Thursday night against the Arizona Cardinals after landing on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. Lazard was deemed a close contact but is unvaccinated and cannot be cleared in time on the short week. Stud wideout Davante Adams tested positive for the virus and also will not travel with the team in Week 8. As a result, expect the Packers to lean heavily on running backs Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon, wide receiver Randall Cobb and tight end Robert Tonyan as they look to give the Cardinals their first loss of the season. Wideouts Equanimeous St. Brown and Amari Rodgers should also see an increase in playing time with both Adams and Lazard out.
