LaPorta missed eight games last season with a back injury. Yet, he finished as the TE7 on a points-per-game basis, averaging 11.9 PPR fantasy points per contest. LaPorta is healthy and in line for a significant role in Drew Petzing's offense, making him one of my favorite players to draft.

LaPorta's TE7 PPG average and reported health make him a favorite in FFPC flex.

LaPorta missed eight games last season with a back injury but finished as the TE7 on a points-per-game basis, averaging 11.9 PPR fantasy points per contest despite totaling a career-low three receiving touchdowns. Reportedly, LaPorta is healthy and in line for a significant role in Drew Petzing's offense. Fanelli notes that the tight end premium scoring makes playing a tight end in the flex spot appealing and considers LaPorta one of his favorite players to draft.
