Expert Note
View More NotesSam LaPorta didn't do much last week with a wonderful matchup. Over his last three games, he has had a 73.9% route share with only a 13.3% target share, 1.22 YPRR, two red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a 12.2% first-read share. It's been shocking how little he has been utilized. LaPorta looks like he's headed for another down game this week. Over their last five games, New England has allowed the tenth-fewest yards per target and the ninth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends.

Fantasy Impact
Fowler notes that teams have gotten the impression that Detroit "would like to keep him and try to work out a long-terms deal eventually." It appears LaPorta is likely to remain in Detroit long-term.
