The New York Jets put Allen Lazard on the spot, and Aaron Rodgers was not impressed
If you’re familiar with the New York Jets‘ social media, you know that players are forced to make quick decisions. Whether it’s Halloween candy, music, or pizza, we’ve seen the Jets’ social media team put players on the spot.
In one of their latest videos, the team put WR Allen Lazard to the test, asking him to rank Adele, Drake, Luke Combs, Taylor Swift, and Post Malone in order from his favorite to least favorite.

Lazard listed Drake as his favorite, with Post Malone and Taylor Swift rounding out the top five. Lazard originally placed Luke Combs second with Adele third, but he switched the two after thinking about it. However, his longtime teammate and quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, was not impressed with the rankings.
The Jets’ new quarterback responded promptly to the video. And while there remains nothing but love between the two, Rodgers didn’t hesitate to give a playful jab to his friend.
“Love Allen, awesome guy, but Allen doesn’t know music. Or fashion,“ tweeted Rodgers.
That’s gotta hurt.

It may be all fun and games in the offseason, but Rodgers and Lazard know there’s plenty of work to do with the Jets this season.
Lazard signed a four-year, $44 million deal with the Jets this offseason. The 27-year-old wide receiver cited both Aaron Rodgers and OC Nathaniel Hackett as major reasons for signing with Gang Green.
While Hackett and Rodgers both had a forgettable 2022-23 season, it was a different story for the former Green Bay Packers wide receiver. Lazard led the Packers and set career-highs in targets, catches, and receiving yards while also securing six touchdowns.
With Rodgers, Hackett, and Lazard now reunited in New York, the trio will look to lead the Jets to their first playoff appearance since the 2010-11 season.
