Fantasy Impact:
LaPorta is a new surprise addition to Detroit's injury report, being listed with a calf injury of some kind that left him sidelined. This is the first we're hearing of his injury, and that's now a good sign. Calf injuries tend to linger, so unless this is a very minor issue that the team is just being careful with, there is some cause for concern for his Week 6 availability. Fantasy managers should pay attention to his practice participation on Friday and status heading into the weekend to get a better idea about whether or not he'll be healthy for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
