TheSam La Porta Award is given to the Rookie TE, who performs exceptionally each week. It is named after the dominating Rookie who won the award five consecutive weeks to start his career. After a two-week hiatus, Sam La Porta is back as the Sam La Porta award winner; with eight catches for 57 yards and a touchdown, La Porta made his presence felt hard in Week 8.

La Porta's performance showcases his ability to secure catches and gain significant yardage. His touchdown, a result of his precise route running and excellent catching knowledge, further demonstrates his impact on the Lions' offense.

As the Sam La Porta Award recipient, we expect La Porta to continue his impressive performances. His ability to secure catches and find space in the opponent's defense will be crucial for the Lions' passing game. This is Laporta's 6th Sam La Ports, and he could become the first TE to win the ORotY if he maintains his current form.
