#Lions TE Sam LaPorta (shoulder) is off the injury report and good to go Sunday vs. the #Colts.

Related Players: Brock Wright

Fantasy Impact:

LaPorta looks like he'll be a full-go for Week 12, and he gets a Colts defense that ranks 30th in TE aFPA. He should be considered above streaming options as a TE1.

DET TE Sam LaPorta - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Buffalo Bills
Sam LaPorta has been a little more touchdown-dependent than we had thought heading into the season, eclipsing 50 yards on only four games all year while falling below 30 on five occasions. Though, if you had to aim for any single "touchdown-dependent" tight end option on a weekly basis, you may as well choose the one that plays for the explosive Detroit Lions offense. His floor might seem a little iffy for this fantasy playoffs matchup against a Bills defense that ranks 6th in TE aFPA, but LaPorta should still be considered a TE1 in Week 15.
