It's no longer a rumor - it seems official that one check mark is down on Aaron Rodgers' Jets wish list.
Per multiple reports, the Jets and wide receiver Allen Lazard have agreed to a four-year, $44 million deal, with $22 million guaranteed. Jordan Schultz of The Score was first with the news.
Lazard, 27, was reportedly one of multiple ex-Packers that Rodgers had asked the Jets about adding, and now he is in the fold before a decision on Rodgers has been reached. Regardless, the receiver is coming off his best season, notching 60 catches for 788 yards and six touchdowns for Green Bay last season, the first he was not overshadowed by Davante Adams.
He now joins a Jets receiving corps that includes Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson and several other dynamic young talents.
