Fantasy Life Articles on Sam LaPorta

LaPorta's elite play-action role supports top-5 TE valuation.

LaPorta remains a top-5 TE despite a quiet Week 7 against Green Bay; he ran a route on 91% of Detroit's dropbacks with 37% of routes off play-action (second-highest among 34 qualified tight ends). His 29% season play-action rate is second among qualified tight ends, and Jared Goff has targeted him on 27% of play-action routes versus 12% without it. Receiver Score sees no deployment changes and recommends buying LaPorta if you can move someone like Travis Kelce or Dalton Kincaid for him.
