It's always tough to sit tight ends with good track records, as tough matchups aren't always going to lock them down. But, the Viking defense has been so good that I'd worry about LaPorta this week. They have been the best at stopping tight ends this season, as they've allowed the fewest yards, receptions, touchdowns (0), and fantasy points.
