Packers WR Davante Adams (toe, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 7. Geronimo Allison (concussion, chest, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 7. Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 7. It was originally reported that MVS was a Friday DNP, but officially he was limited. He should be able to play, and he'll be joined by Allen Lazard and Jake Kumerow in three-receiver sets. Lazard and Kumerow are Sneaky Starts against a sketchy Oakland pass defense.

Packers WR Geronimo Allison (concussion, chest) did not practice Wednesday. In addition to his concussion, Allison is also dealing with a chest injury. He looks doubtful for Week 7. Allen Lazard should pick up significant snaps in Allison's absence.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers asked for WR Allen Lazard to be on field

Aaron Rodgers wanted Allen Lazard on the field, and Lazard wanted Rodgers to throw him the ball.

Even with Davante Adams already out for a second straight game with turf toe and Geronimo Allison knocked out of the game with a head and chest injury, the Packers still didn't immediately turn to Lazard.

"I may have put in a good word there in the fourth quarter to get him some opportunities," Rodgers said.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said it wasn't until after rookie receiver Darrius Shepherd dropped a pass at the Lions' 1-yard line -- it actually ricocheted off his face mask and was intercepted -- that the Packers finally went to the relatively unknown 6-foot-5 receiver. Lazard ended with a line of 4-65-1. With the injuries to Adams and Allison, Lazard has a chance to stick and is worth a pickup, but will likely be a hot commodity.

The Packers made room for signing Allen Lazard by placing RB Aaron Jones on injured reserve, source said.

Related players: Jamaal Williams

Fantasy Impact:

Williams now has a clear path to be the main back this week against the Jets. NYJ were ranked 13th coming into last week in terms of allowing fantasy points to RBs, so it's not the best matchup but Williams should be in our RB2 range when rankings come out.
