Lions TE Sam LaPorta unfazed by smaller Year 2 stat line: 'Everybody deserves the ball'
Our Summary
In his second year with the Lions, tight end Sam LaPorta saw a dip in his passing stats but remains unfazed, focusing on his progress as a blocker and team player. Despite fewer receptions, LaPorta contributed to a potent offense that led the league in scoring. He aims to enhance his game understanding and hopes for a healthier season ahead. LaPorta's versatility and team-oriented mindset bode well for the Lions as they aim to address unfinished business in the playoffs under new offensive leadership.
