Lions' Sam LaPorta Active for Playoff Game Against Rams Despite Knee Injury

Rams' Jordan Fuller Ruled Out as Lions Play First Postseason Game in Detroit in 30 Years

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta, who suffered a knee injury last week, is active for the wild-card playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams.
Despite the injury, LaPorta is expected to play a crucial role in the game, potentially with a knee brace to prevent further injury.
LaPorta had a standout rookie season, setting franchise records for receptions (86), yards (886) and touchdowns (10) by a Lions tight end.
Rams safety Jordan Fuller, the team’s second-leading tackler, is ruled out due to an ankle injury.
This is the Lions' first playoff game since 2016 and the first postseason game in Detroit in 30 years.
