Sources: Jets' Allen Lazard takes pay cut to $2.25M base salary

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets' offseason purge has claimed quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his most prolific wide receiver, Davante Adams, but one member of the old Green Bay Packers gang is sticking around.

Ending months of speculation, wide receiver Allen Lazard agreed to a significant pay cut to remain with the Jets, sources confirmed to ESPN on Thursday.

Lazard was thought to be a goner due to his $11 million base salary (nonguaranteed) for 2025, but the two sides restructured the contract after several weeks of discussions.
