Jets Release Allen Lazard

Tuesday, December 16, 10:48 AM

The New York Jets are releasing wide receiver Allen Lazard, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports. Lazard hasn't played a significant role for the Jets this season, collecting 10 catches for 70 yards on 18 targets in 10 games. His snap share dipped to just 22.4% over the past three games after averaging 45.7% over his first seven games. The 29-year-old wideout was passed on the depth chart by trade-deadline acquisitions Adonai Mitchell and John Metchie III, who both present more youth and upside at the WR position. Lazard will likely be scooped by another team in the coming days, but he can be ignored in fantasy football.

Drake London News

Drake London Remains a Dynasty Cornerstone

Friday, July 24, 10:32 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London is already priced as a top-10 dynasty asset, but the cost still makes sense for contenders and rebuilders. He caught 68 passes for 919 yards and seven touchdowns in only 12 games last season, drawing 112 targets despite missing five contests. Atlanta paid him accordingly, signing him through 2030 on a four-year, $141 million extension. The receiver room is faster and deeper after adding Jahan Dotson, Olamide Zaccheaus, and rookie Zachariah Branch, yet the Falcons still view London as the clear No. 1. The real concern is quarterback. Michael Penix Jr. is returning from ACL surgery, while Tua Tagovailoa will compete for the job. That uncertainty is already baked into a mid-second-round redraft price. London sits at dynasty WR7 and ninth overall in RotoBaller's latest rankings, which feels about right. He is not cheap, but there is no roster build that needs to rush into selling him.
