Jets | Allen Lazard set free Tue Dec 16, 10:28 AM
New York Jets WR Allen Lazard was released Tuesday, Dec. 16, and he hopes to latch on with a playoff team.
| Footballguys view: Lazard, who turned 30 last week, has hardly played this season. He has 10 receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown, with a season-high of 16 yards coming in an October loss to the Panthers. He hopes to sign with a playoff team should he clear waivers. |
Los Angeles Rams WR Davante Adams (hamstring) is considered week-to-week because of a hamstring injury, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Adams went down in the fourth quarter Sunday and was unable to return to the game. McVay will provide another update when he addresses the media on Tuesday, likely giving a clearer timeline for Adams' return. Rapoport reported earlier in the day that "the hope is Adams will be able to return for the playoffs. This season, Adams leads the NFL with 14 touchdown receptions. He has 789 yards receiving on 60 receptions. He had played all 14 games before getting injured Sunday, but now stands to miss at least Thursday night's game against the Seahawks. |

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze (foot) is considered week-to-week at this point because of his foot injury, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: This report comes after head coach Ben Johnson said "all options are on the table" regarding Odunze's foot injury and whether the team will shut him down for a stretch of time to get him healthy, ready for a potential playoff run. Johnson: "There may be a case that we need to protect him from himself a little bit so he can help us down the road." We'll be watching for more, but assuming he's week to week, it's unlikely to be this week. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) remains on the Reserve/Injured list, but he could return this season. 'He's got some hurdles he's got to get over,' head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday, Dec. 15. 'We'll wait to see him get over those hurdles. But, if get gets over them, then we can get him back.'
| Footballguys view: Horton is eligible to return from injured reserve for Week 16, but it doesn't sound like that's in the cards. We'll be watching for more here, but with Rashid Shaheed finally gaining traction, it's not clear what kind of role the rookie would return to -- if that's what happens. |

Chicago Bears WR Luther Burden III (ankle) is considered day-to-day because of the ankle injury he suffered during the Week 15 game, according to head coach Ben Johnson.
| Footballguys view: Despite leaving Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns early, Burden had six receptions for a team-best 84 yards on seven targets before departing. As Footballguys Sigmund Bloom suggested, even if this ankle injury keeps him from mattering in redraft leagues for the next two weeks, Burden's dynasty value is high. We'll continue to watch for more. |
Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) is still considered day-to-day because of his knee injury, but head coach Raheem Morris said the team is more hopeful about his availability for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: According to Morris, his top wideout is still day-to-day, but the increased optimism is worth noting. London has 60 receptions for 810 receiving yards and six touchdowns this season. During his four-week absence, TE Kyle Pitts has played some of the best football of his NFL career. Pitts has recorded 73 catches for 797 receiving yards and four touchdowns. "He was there as the No. 1 wideout, so to speak," said Morris of Pitts. "He got the targets Drake would normally get." So, London's return could have an impact beyond his own investors. We'll be watching for more. |
