Allen Lazard's Status Uncertain for Sunday's Game

Wide Receiver Dealing with Chest Injury

Decision on His Availability to Be Made Close to Kickoff

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings due to a chest injury. Lazard was limited in practice this week and his status for the game is uncertain.

Lazard is a key part of the Packers' offense and his absence would be a big blow. He has 35 catches for 432 yards and four touchdowns this season, and is one of quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite targets.

If Lazard is unable to play, the Packers will likely turn to Sammy Watkins and Christian Watson to fill his role. Watkins has 13 catches for 206 yards and two touchdowns this season, while Watson has 11 catches for 214 yards and two touchdowns.

The Packers are 3-5 this season and need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Vikings are 6-1 and are one of the favorites to win the NFC North.
