The Green Bay Packers headed down to New Orleans knowing that superstar wide receiver Davante Adams wouldn’t suit up on Sunday night. Fans were hopeful that they’d see Adams, but ultimately, he was held out for precautionary reasons.
Without Adams, who would quarterback Aaron Rodgers and head coach Matt LaFleur turn to in order to fill the void? As it turns out, an assortment of tight-ends and an undrafted third-year man out of Iowa State – Allen Lazard.
With Adams gone and Marquez Valdes-Scantling getting shaded coverage looks (the Davante treatment) the Saints were almost daring Lazard to beat them.
