LaPorta sits firmly in a role, with 52 yards or less in each game thus far... His target share is a solid 18%; he's not just situational.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

LaPorta's 18% target share offers upside despite slow start and role compression.

LaPorta has not yet broken out and has lost luster since 2023 when Jameson Williams and Jahmyr Gibbs weren't in the forefront of the pass game; he's posted 52 yards or less in each game thus far. However, his target share is solid at 18% and he's not just situational. When Jared Goff is pressured, LaPorta becomes a frequent checkdown and is dynamic after the catch. He started slowly last year before scoring 16+ DraftKings points 3 times in 5 games before going on injured reserve.
