Packers Beat: WR Allen Lazard solidifying position behind Davante Adams

Aug 26, 2020

The Athletic reports that Packers WR Allen Lazard's performance during training camp has solidifed the coaching staff's belief that he can be Aaron Rodgers' second receiving option behind Davante Adams.

Fantasy Impact:

The Packers have been slammed all offseason for failing to address the glaring weakness in their wide receiver room, but reports about Lazard's performance in camp have been positive and Aaron Rodgers has complimented Lazard's improvement and professionalism. Davante Adams is still set to command a massive target share, but whoever emerges in the passing game behind him should have plenty of opportunity to produce with the lack of established playmakers on the Green Bay offense. Lazard is interesting as a late-round flier.

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Doubtful for Week 15

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
