New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard (illness) is inactive for the Week 17 game on Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns after coming into the game listed as questionable to play. As a result of Lazard being too ill to play, veteran Randall Cobb will be active for just the 10th time this season. He'll still be behind Garrett Wilson, Jason Brownlee and Xavier Gipson in the receiving pecking order and probably won't be on the field all that much on offense. The 33-year-old has only ...

New York Jets veteran wide receiver Randall Cobb was active in the Week 12 loss to the Miami Dolphins last Friday for the first time since Week 6, but he played only seven offensive snaps and wasn't targeted at all. Cobb was only active last week because the Jets benched the struggling Allen Lazard. Lazard is returning to action in Week 13 as the team takes on the visiting Atlanta Falcons, so Cobb will go back to being a healthy scratch yet again. The 33-year-old was mainly brought in over the...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb is active for the Week 12 game on Friday against the Miami Dolphins. Cobb is active for the first time since Week 6 because the Jets decided to make struggling wideout Allen Lazard a healthy scratch for this one. Cobb has just three catches on 12 targets for 20 yards and no touchdowns in six games played for the Jets this year, but his role could be expanded on Friday with Lazard riding the pine. Garrett Wilson should remain the top targeted receiver ...

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard (knee) is officially active for Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. Meanwhile, veteran receiver Randall Cobb is a healthy scratch. Lazard popped up on the Week 9 injury report on Saturday and was limited in practice, but it was more of a precaution than anything. The 27-year-old will be on the field as New York's No. 2 wideout behind Garrett Wilson in an excellent matchup against the Chargers defense. Lazard's fantasy stock took a ...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Thursday. Cobb should be healthy enough to play on Monday Night Football to close out Week 9 action against the Los Angeles Chargers, but the 33-year-old could be a healthy scratch for the second straight week. Cobb's chances of being fantasy relevant in 2023 pretty much went out the window when quarterback Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles on the first offensive series of the year. Cobb has been active for ...

When the New York Jets signed wide receiver Randall Cobb this offseason, it felt like he would serve as more of a veteran mentor than have a prominent offensive role. However, by the end of training camp, it was clear that not only will he play a role, but he'll likely start in Week 1 of the regular season, according to The Athletic. He has looked like the team's best option in the slot and the best replacement for the retired Corey Davis in the running game. The 33-year-old could still have ...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb is entering his 13th NFL season and has not posted over 450 receiving yards since 2019. However, Zack Rosenblatt of the Athletic reports Cobb has been getting more repetitions with quarterback Aaron Rodgers than Mecole Hardman Jr. in recent practices. Rodgers and Cobb spent 10 seasons together in Green Bay and are close friends, but it'd be a surprising development to see the 33-year-old wideout play a larger role than Hardman this season. This is just a ...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb (ankle) will be activated from the PUP list and practice on Sunday. The 32-year-old, who signed with the Jets in the offseason, underwent ankle surgery in March after playing in Green Bay in 2022. Unfortunately, he didn't have his best year, totaling 34 catches for 417 yards and a touchdown in 13 games. Without question, Cobb has plenty of experience to help mentor a young Jets receiving corps. But that won't mean he'll be a consistent fantasy producer ...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb (ankle) landed on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Wednesday. The 32-year-old is coming off an uneventful season in Green Bay, amassing 34 catches for 417 yards while scoring only one touchdown. He underwent ankle surgery in March. However, the Jets still signed Cobb to a deal, keeping him alongside close friend and teammate Aaron Rodgers. Nonetheless, he can come off the PUP list at any point leading up to Week 1. But regardless of when the ...

New York Jets wide receiver Randall Cobb seems to understand that his role will be limited this year. "I know this isn't the prime of my career," Cobb said. "But I still have a lot left in the tank. If you watch what I've done the last few years, I'm really efficient." He brings valuable veteran leadership and depth as a slot receiver and kick returner, and he's also one of quarterback Aaron Rodgers' best friends. The 32-year-old finished 2022 with 34 receptions, 417 yards and one touchdown in...
