        Sam LaPorta Posts His Best Fantasy Game Since 2023, Draws Cardinals Next

        LaPorta produced both a team and season-high 22.4 PPR points in the Lions’ primetime loss to the Panthers. He hauled in eight of his 13 targets for 84 yards and a TD to finish as the TE2 in Week 4 pending Monday Night Football. It’s his highest-scoring game since Week 15 of his rookie season in 2023.

        If you drafted Jameson Williams and started him against the Saints in Week 1, you're probably not too happy about his mere 4 catches for 45 yards. That landed Williams outside the top 40 across fantasy formats for the week. But his 9 targets ranked second on the team, one ahead of TE Sam LaPorta. Williams landed eighth among WRs in expected PPR points for the week.

        Lions TE Sam LaPorta was back on the practice field on Tuesday, less than a week after HC Dan Campbell was non-committal on his Week 1 availability due to a hip injury. LaPorta took part in individual and team drills, per The Detroit Free Press' Dave Birkett. Barring a setback, LaPorta is on track to be a full-go come Week 1.

        Lions HC Dan Campbell said Thursday that TE Sam LaPorta is dealing with a hip injury after taking a hit in practice earlier this week. The injury doesn't sound serious, but Campbell admitted he's not sure if it'll impact LaPorta's Week 1 availability, per insider Tim Twentyman.

        Lions TE Sam LaPorta has gained full clearance for the start of training camp, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. LaPorta dealt with a fully herniated disk last season that required a microdiscectomy procedure. That injury cost him the final eight games.
