1 year agoDetroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta leads all tight ends in receiving yards (242) this season, so he's a must-start fantasy option against the Carolina Panthers in Week 5. Although Carolina has surrendered the eighth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends through four weeks, the rookie from Iowa has proven he has upside in all matchups. Given the scarcity of fantasy production from tight ends. LaPorta has already done enough to qualify as a must-start player at the position. Jameson Williams' return from suspension could cause him to see fewer targets, but the two pass-catchers are likely to operate in different areas of the field, so that's not much of a concern. If Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) misses Sunday's game, LaPorta could see double-digit targets.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller
