With Allen Lazard battling ankle injury, 'the other four better be ready,’ Aaron Rodgers says

GREEN BAY — As if the Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver corps weren’t shrouded in enough uncertainty, their new No. 1, Allen Lazard, did not practice again on Wednesday and his status for Sunday’s season-opening matchup with the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium is in doubt.

Lazard sat out both of the team’s practices following the Aug. 25 preseason finale at Kansas City, didn’t practice on Monday when the players returned from a four-day break for the Labor Day weekend and was the only member of the 53-man roster not to practice Wednesday.

The Packers listed Lazard with an ankle injury on the official injury report.
