Sam LaPorta Aims For Bigger Role Against Chicago
2 mins agoDetroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta will look to step up as the Lions host the Chicago Bears in Week 13. In his first game back from a shoulder injury, LaPorta was targeted six times—third most on the team—but managed just three receptions for 19 yards. It marked the fourth time this season he's been held under 30 receiving yards, continuing a season where he's reached double-digit fantasy points only three times. The Bears defense has been vulnerable to tight ends, allowing the 10th-most receiving yards per game to the position. With another week to recover, LaPorta has a favorable matchup to improve his production and return to form as a key part of Detroit's passing attack. In Week 13, he remains a low-end TE option for fantasy managers.
