Unquestioned in their talent, yet uncertain of their chemistry during Week 1, Allen Lazard and the New York Jets understood that until the two characteristics could coalesce, they could, at the very least, rely on already-proven connections. Doing just that during a last-minute effort to score additional points, Lazard found himself as a red zone beneficiary once more, shaking free on a herky-jerky slant route before adjusting into an acrobatic touchdown, his night’s second. A standout performer during Monday Night Football’s 32-19 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, Lazard elevated his play through six catches (on nine targets) for 89 yards and a pair of scores on Sept. 9, 2024.
