Jets' Allen Lazard: No catches on four targets
Allen Lazard didn't catch any of his four targets in Sunday's 32-25 win over the Jaguars.Lazard has displayed butter fingers throughout his tenure with the New York Jets, and he had an especially costly drop Sunday on a dime from Aaron Rodgers that should have been a 30-yard touchdown. Anders Carlson missed a field-goal attempt on the very next play, though Lazard's struggles ultimately didn't prevent the Jets from notching their fourth win of the season. For the second consecutive game since Lazard returned from IR, Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson combined for double-digit catches and well over 200 yards, leaving limited opportunities for the team's No. 3 wideout.

Jets' Allen Lazard: One catch in return from IR
Allen Lazard (chest) caught his only target for 18 yards in Sunday's 32-26 overtime loss to the Dolphins.Seeing his first action since Week 7, Lazard played 78 percent of snaps on offense, so his lack of production wasn't due to a lack of playing time. He's a distant third on the New York Jets' wide receiver depth chart behind Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams, who combined for 223 yards and a touchdown on 21 targets against the Dolphins. Lazard will be a touchdown-dependent Week 15 fantasy option against a Jaguars defense that's giving up 26.5 points per game.

Jets' Allen Lazard: Returning from IR
Allen Lazard (chest) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.Lazard has been practicing without limitations and presumably is healthy enough to suit up for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, though the New York Jets still will need to perform an official transaction to put him back on the 53-man roster. Prior to getting hurt, Lazard had 412 receiving yards and five touchdowns through seven games. All but one of those games came prior to the Jets trading for Davante Adams, and Lazard likely won't see as many targets while slotting in as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Adams and Garrett Wilson.

Allen Lazard (chest) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.Lazard was officially designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he looks to have a decent shot of suiting up for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Xavier Gipson and rookie Malachi Corley have been handling the No. 3 and 4 receiver duties behind target leaders Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams in recent weeks. Lazard will be fighting for scraps behind Adams and Wilson as well as running back Breece Hall (knee) and tight end Tyler Conklin once he's cleared for game action.
