From the episode
Laporta, he should be back. And that's important. They missed him when he was out. He's important in the red zone. He's important on third downs. Goff has a 138 quarterback rating when throwing to Sam Laporta... I do think he's a tight ends guy. So I really like Sam Laporta this year, particularly.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalProjection
LaPorta positioned for big season with Petzin's tight-end-friendly scheme.
The source projects LaPorta for a strong season under new offensive coordinator Drew Petzin, noting he 'should be back' and is 'important in the red zone' and 'important on third downs.' Goff has a 138 quarterback rating when throwing to LaPorta, and Petzin's track record with tight ends (Trey McBride in Arizona) suggests LaPorta will benefit from the scheme fit.
