LaPorta expected to break out under new OC Petzing; should reclaim volume.

LaPorta is expected to have a breakout year in 2026 under new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing. LaPorta missed the final eight weeks of 2025 with a back injury, during which Jameson Williams saw increased volume (7.4 targets, 15.2 PPR per game). When healthy in the first 10 weeks, LaPorta averaged 5.4 targets and 11.9 PPR per game. The expectation is that Petzing's scheme will unlock LaPorta's potential, which would reduce Williams' target share and make Williams a bust at his WR25 ADP.
