Allen Lazard of the New York Jets is listed as doubtful for the upcoming game against the New England Patriots due to a chest injury.

If Lazard is unable to play, Mike Williams is expected to step up alongside Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams in the receiving corps, with potential increased opportunities for Xavier Gipson as well.
- Lazard's absence could lead to increased roles for other receivers.
