Calf injury
Lions’ TE Sam LaPorta, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a calf injury, is expected to work out pre-game to finalize whether he can play, but it is trending in the right direction, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)
Nerdy Football Analysis: LaPorta missed practice Thursday but did practice Friday so it seems like he’ll be out there against the Buccaneers on Sunday. The Lions play in the late-afternoon window. LaPorta has been a nice surprise in the tight end landscape barren of playable options.
