In a strong performance during Week 7, Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw for 280 yards and two touchdowns, leading his team to victory against the Vikings. Despite the win, tight end Sam LaPorta struggled to make an impact, catching only one pass for 25 yards, while other Lions players received more targets and receptions. This was particularly notable given the Vikings' weak defense against tight ends.
