Allen Lazard missed Monday's practice, the Packers' first since returning from the break following the preseason finale. Lazard instead worked off to the side of the field as part of his rehab, the team's typical approach to injured players who have a chance to resume to action in the near future.
As the story said. the Packers haven't disclosed Lazard's issue and don't have to release an official practice report until Wednesday, at which point the nature of his injury will come into focus. Since the NFL eliminated the "probable" injury designation in 2016, the veteran wideout will likely enter the weekend as officially questionable to play unless he can participate fully in practice before then. HC Matt LaFleur was quoted in the story as saying, "I think Allen is doing better, but we'll see as the week progresses where he's at." Lazard is expected to be the team's WR1 and serve as a bit of stability for QB Aaron Rodgers and all the team's young wideouts.
