Lazard was always expected to sign the second-round tender and the timing makes sense now that the team’s mandatory minicamp has passed.

The Packers are counting on the former undrafted free agent to be a big part of the offense this fall with Davante Adams now in Las Vegas and Marquez Valdes-Scantling in Kansas City.

“He’s been our dirty work guy for most of his career here. Now he’s got an opportunity to be a number one receiver,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said during minicamp. “I’m not worried about him at all stepping in that role. I’ve talked to him a lot. I know how he takes care of his body and I know he’ll be ready when he’s here.”

Lazard set career highs in catches (40), yards (513) and touchdowns (8) last season.
