New York Jets Place Allen Lazard on IR

The New York Jets are grappling with trade decisions as the NFL deadline approaches, particularly concerning wide receiver Mike Williams, whose role may become more critical due to Allen Lazard's injury (source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/new-york-jets/news/trade-rumors-key-allen-lazard-injury-may-affect-mike-williams-plans/30f9bf23e606cf28ec0c33e9). Despite their 3-6 record, the Jets remain committed to a postseason push following a victory against the Houston Texans, largely driven by Aaron Rodgers (source: https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/nfl/jets/2024/11/04/ny-jets-trade-deadline-nfl-rumors-updates/75987510007/). The team’s aggressive trades, including acquiring Davante Adams, underscore their win-now approach, although speculation around Williams' trade status persists (source: https://www.si.com/nfl/jets/news/new-york-jets-stance-on-veteran-playmaker-changing-days-ahead-of-trade-deadline). Meanwhile, safety remains a weak point for the Jets, exacerbated by injuries, necessitating potential roster adjustments (source: https://www.si.com/nfl/jets/news/new-york-jets-offseason-concern-must-be-addressed-before-trade-deadline). The Jets might refrain from radical trades, focusing instead on leveraging their current roster strengths (source: https://www.si.com/nfl/jets/news/insider-says-new-york-jets-wont-make-more-crazy-decisions-at-trade-deadline).
