The Packers have activated Allen Lazard from IR.
Only eight weeks after needing core muscle surgery, Allen Lazard could be set to make his return as the Green Bay Packers visit the Indianapolis Colts.
The Packers announced on Tuesday that they have activated Lazard from injured reserve, which means he’s now back on the active roster and available to play this week.
It is worth noting that this doesn’t guarantee he’ll definitely play on Sunday against the Colts. This was the final week in the three-week window to activate Lazard from injured reserve, so with his return nearing, the Packers have done so now.
