Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown hauled 13 catches for 102 receiving yards in Week 7’s loss vs. the Ravens. The third-year wideout’s 19 targets on Sunday set a new career-high mark after setting his previous best of 15 just one week ago against the Buccaneers. TE Sam LaPorta was also effective again, logging 6 catches on 7 targets for 52 yards in the contest. As unfortunate as it was for Detroit to post just 6 points in this game, at least their pass-catchers were useful for fantasy purposes. We’ll be excited to start these guys again in next week’s game vs. the Raiders.

Lions WR Sam LaPorta (calf) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. He was reportedly a game-time decision after hurting his calf in practice this week. There’s certainly elevated risk with LaPorta this week, but get him in your starting lineup if you were waiting on him.

ESPN's Jeff Darlington reports that the Lions are "planning" for TE Sam LaPorta (calf) to be active for this afternoon's game vs. the Bucs. It's not quite a guarantee -- but all signs point toward LaPorta playing. We'll get Detroit's inactives a little before 3 pm ET.

ESPN's Adam Schefter tweets that Lions TE Sam LaPorta (calf) is "trending in the right direction" for today's game vs. the Bucs. LaPorta is "expected to work out pre-game to finalize whether he can play," Schefter adds, so he's not a sure thing. It's a 4:25 pm ET kickoff, so we won't get Detroit's inactives until a little before 3 pm ET. LaPorta can be penciled into fantasy lineups, but it'd be wise to have another late-game TE rostered just in case the rookie ends up inactive.
