Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (back) has officially been ruled out for his team's Week 11 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a back injury. The exact nature of LaPorta's back injury is unclear, but it prevented him from logging a single practice this week. It's a frustrating development for fantasy managers, as LaPorta has been playing some of his best football of late. Over his last five games, LaPorta has recorded 24 catches for 312 yards and three touchdowns on 28 targets. Without him, veteran tight end Brock Wright (ankle) will likely see the majority of the tight end snaps for Detroit. Wright is listed as questionable for Week 11 due to an ankle injury, but is expected to play. Still, Wright does not profile as a fantasy-relevant tight end even without LaPorta in the lineup. Lions wideouts Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, as well as running back Jahmyr Gibbs, are the most likely players to benefit from LaPorta's absence from a target volume perspective.--Will Brady
