Sam LaPorta, the tight end for the Detroit Lions, was a full participant in practice on Friday, indicating he is set to play against the Seahawks on Monday. This comes after he dealt with an ankle sprain that limited his snaps in the previous game. Despite disappointing fantasy managers this season, the struggles at the tight end position suggest patience may be necessary. Additionally, LaPorta had a limited practice earlier in the year due to a hyperextended knee but is expected to fulfill his role in the upcoming conference title game.

• Sam LaPorta is recovering well from his ankle injury and is expected to play.
• Fantasy managers should consider patience with LaPorta despite his struggles this season.
