Detroit Lions<\/a> rookie tight end Sam LaPorta has become a favorite target of quarterback Jared Goff and it\u2019s shown over the first three weeks of the season.<\/p>\n

LaPorta had eight catches for 84 yards and a touchdown in the team\u2019s 20-6 win over the Atlanta Falcons<\/a>. He also entered the NFL record books.<\/p>\n

The former Iowa standout, who had five catches in Weeks 1 and 2, became the first rookie tight end with at least that many receptions in each of his first three career games, according to NFL Research. His 18 receptions surpassed Keith Jackson\u2019s 1988 mark for most receptions by a tight end in their first three career games.<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s a stud,” Goff said of LaPorta. “He has a great feel for the game. Great hands, obviously, and great speed.<\/p>\n

“The sky is the limit and hopefully I\u2019ll play with him for a long time.”<\/p>\n

Detroit selected LaPorta with the 34th pick of the draft this past spring. He played four years with the Hawkeyes and became a top target for the offense during his junior and senior seasons.<\/p>\n

In 2022, he had 58 catches for 657 yards and a touchdown. He had three touchdowns in 2021.<\/p>\n

LaPorta\u2019s emergence marks another name on the standout tight ends from Iowa. George Kittle<\/a>, Noah Fant and Dallas Clark are among the others.<\/p>\n
