For the second straight day, receiver Allen Lazard has missed practice with an ankle injury after someone stepped on him at practice last week. Lazard, the Green Bay Packers’ top returning wide receiver from 2021, was expected to grow into the number one receiver role following the vacancies left by Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
At this point, though, it seems like a longshot that Lazard will be on the field against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, considering his participation in practice. The Packers have one more practice, a Friday walkthrough, before the team travels to Minnesota for their season opener.
