Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta is dealing with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder, causing him to miss practice for the second consecutive day. His availability for the upcoming game against the Jaguars is in question, and if he cannot play, Brock Wright is expected to take over the tight end role. In a separate update, LaPorta returned to limited practice in January 2024 after recovering from a hyperextended knee and bone bruise, indicating he is still a key player for the Lions as they head into the postseason.
