Allen Lazard, 29, Calls Off Engagement to Miss Peru 2023 Camila Escribens

Q: What triggered a sudden canceled wedding and an NFL release for the veteran wide receiver all in the same turbulent offseason?

There is no confirmed single trigger. Public reporting indicates Allen Lazard’s turbulent offseason involved two separate developments: a reported breakup with fiancée Camila Escribens and his release after an unproductive run with the Jets. On the personal side, TMZ reported that Lazard and Escribens, Miss Peru 2023, called off their engagement after already sending wedding invitations. The pair had gotten engaged in Montauk in May 2025 and welcomed a daughter in October 2025. Neither has publicly explained the split, and reports say the cause remains unclear. The main public signs were that both removed most references to each other from social media, apart from posts tied to their gender reveal. On the football side, the reason for Lazard’s release appears more straightforward: performance. After following Aaron Rodgers from Green Bay to New York on a four-year, $44 million deal in 2023, Lazard never produced at the level the Jets expected. In 36 games with New York, he had 60 catches for 841 yards, including just 10 receptions for 70 yards last season. That decline made him a likely cap and roster casualty this offseason. So, the canceled wedding appears to have been driven by an undisclosed personal split, while the NFL release was tied to disappointing production and the Jets’ roster decisions.

Q: After a massive contract bust and a shocking personal split, who will gamble on Aaron Rodgers' former favorite target?

The most plausible gamble is Pittsburgh, if Allen Lazard gets another NFL shot at all. On football merit alone, Lazard is no longer a clear starter. His four-year, $44 million Jets deal turned into a major miss, and after following Aaron Rodgers from Green Bay to New York, he produced only 60 catches for 841 yards in 36 Jets games, with just 10 receptions for 70 yards last season before being released. That profile makes him a low-cost veteran flier, not a priority signing. What still gives him a path is Rodgers history. Lazard was a trusted target in Green Bay, where he posted 169 catches for 2,236 yards and 20 touchdowns in 57 games and showed value as a big-bodied possession receiver and blocker. Teams tied to Rodgers remain the obvious landing spots because his value is highest where quarterback trust already exists. That is why the Steelers stand out. Recent reporting around Pittsburgh has already linked the fit: Rodgers is there, the back end of the receiver room appears unsettled, and the Steelers have shown a willingness to add familiar Rodgers pass-catchers such as Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Robert Tonyan. Lazard would not be arriving as a headline addition, but as competition for a depth role. The personal split from Camila Escribens is notable off the field, but it is unlikely to determine his market. His next opportunity, if it comes, will be decided by whether a team believes Rodgers-era familiarity can still outweigh the steep decline in production.

Q: Why did this celebrity couple suddenly scrap their wedding plans and scrub their social media just months after welcoming a child?

There is no confirmed public reason. Multiple reports, led by TMZ Sports, say Allen Lazard and Camila Escribens have ended their engagement, called off a wedding for which invitations had already been sent, and removed most references to each other from social media, but neither has explained why. What is clear is the timeline. The former New York Jets receiver proposed in Montauk in May 2025, the couple held a gender reveal in July 2025, and they welcomed a daughter in October 2025. Less than a year later, they reportedly split. Escribens deleted her engagement post and mentions of Lazard, while Lazard also appears to have scrubbed most relationship posts, leaving mainly content tied to their child. That kind of coordinated social-media cleanup usually signals a breakup and an effort to privately close out a public relationship. Some outlets have speculated the split may not be especially amicable because of how thoroughly the posts were removed, but that remains inference, not confirmed fact. So the direct answer is that the wedding was scrapped because the couple reportedly broke up. As for why they broke up, no verified explanation has been given by Lazard, Escribens, or their representatives.

Lazard now enters free agency off the field and on it after a disappointing Jets stint in which he posted 60 catches for 841 yards in two seasons, including just 10 receptions for 70 yards last year.
The 29-year-old receiver previously broke out with Green Bay, where he totaled 169 catches for 2,236 yards and 20 touchdowns in 57 games before following Aaron Rodgers to New York in 2023.
