Fantasy Impact:

Laporta will now be sidelined for at least the next four games for head coach Dan Campbell, leaving the Detroit offense without a key weapon for quarterback Jared Goff. Brock Wright will likely move up to the No. 1 tight end slot beginning in a Week 11 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday night.
