Lazard was a heathy inactive for the Jets' Week 12 loss to the Dolphins, a likely result of the veteran wide receiver having struggled with drops and ill-timed penalties in his first season with the Jets. Prior to the benching, Lazard had a consistent starting role on the outside opposite Garrett Wilson, but it's possible that the 4-7 Jets will look to work rookie Jason Brownlee in more at Lazard's expense. Brownlee played all but one of the Jets' offensive snaps against Miami with Lazard inactive.

Lazard was a heathy inactive for the Jets' Week 12 loss to the Dolphins, a likely result of the veteran wide receiver having struggled with drops and ill-timed penalties in his first season with the Jets. Prior to the benching, Lazard had a consistent starting role on the outside opposite Garrett Wilson, but it's possible that the 4-7 Jets will look to work rookie Jason Brownlee in more at Lazard's expense. Brownlee played all but one of the Jets' offensive snaps against Miami with Lazard inactive.
After going without a reception in Sunday's 32-6 loss to the Bills and dropping his seventh pass of the season, Lazard finds himself as a healthy scratch Week 12. It's a precipitous fall down the depth chart for Lazard, who has turned in a disappointing 20-290-1 receiving line on 41 targets through his first 10 games with the Jets since signing a four-year, $44 million contract in the offseason. With Lazard in street clothes Friday, Xavier Gipson, Randall Cobb, Jason Brownlee and Irvin Charles will round out the Jets' receiving corps behind top target Garrett Wilson.
Lazard was added to the Jets' final Week 9 injury report as questionable for Monday night's contest due to a knee issue that limited him at practice Saturday. Now that his availability versus Los Angeles has been confirmed, Lazard is slated to continue to work as the Jets' No. 2 WR in the team's Zach Wilson-helmed offense behind Garrett Wilson, a role that has resulted in the 27-year-old recording a 17-255-1 line on 29 targets through seven games. In his last outing, Lazard caught three of his season-high six targets for 45 yards in the Jets' overtime win over the Giants in Week 8.
Lazard made a pivotal 29-yard catch on the third-to-last play of the fourth quarter, as the Jets had just enough time to run up the field and spike the ball with one second left to set up Greg Zuerlein's game-tying, 35-yard field goal. It was Lazard's second-longest catch of the season and helped him top 40 yards for the third time through seven games with the Jets.
