From the video

or it means that they have to keep Sam LaPorta in to block more. So I I guess what I'm saying is I think that there are structural risks from like a pass protection responsibility standpoint that could affect Gibbs or LaPorta.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Pass protection risks vs. Vikings blitz; reduced route participation.

LaPorta faces structural pass protection risks against the Vikings' aggressive blitz scheme. The Lions may need to keep him in to block more frequently, which could reduce his pass game involvement and route participation in this matchup.
