00:00 the season. Let's start at the
00:08 top with the Detroit Lions
00:10 outstanding rookie tight end
00:12 Sam Laporta on one of his first
00:14 catches of the game, he said a
00:16 rookie tight end record with 82
00:18 grabs in a single season that a
00:20 new NFL record his 10th
00:21 receiving touchdown of the year
00:23 tying Mike Ditka and Rob
00:25 Gronkowski for the most
00:25 receiving scores by a rookie
00:27 record. The first time he
00:30 scored a touchdown in a single
00:31 season last year, it had to be
00:33 corded off into the halftime
00:35 locker room. Dr Chow. What is
00:37 Sam Laporta's forecast for this
00:37 postseason with the Detroit
00:41 Lions? First Let me say this.
00:43 Of course, there's lots of
00:44 different philosophies about
00:46 rest versus rust. But the fact
00:49 is, you cannot rest everyone.
00:51 There's 53 active guys on the
00:53 team on the roster and you
00:53 activate 46 guys to play the
00:57 game. And then you have to
00:59 activate the rest of the
01:00 players. You have to activate
01:01 the rest of the rookies. So
01:03 it's really easy to second
01:05 guess and say, Oh, he shouldn't
01:06 have been out there. But the
01:08 reality is you had to put
01:09 somebody out there and quite
01:11 honestly, the lines started the
01:12 game short it tight in at the
01:14 tight end position with number
01:16 two and four already out. I
01:17 would expect they need to add a
01:19 tight end. Now is it Zach hurts?
01:20 I mean, he's been sitting on
01:22 the sidelines. I don't know.
01:24 But Sam Laporta will be out for
01:27 the rest of the season. I
01:28 actually want to share with you
01:29 guys in game video what Dan
01:32 Campbell said afterwards.
01:33 Actually, we said it first.
01:35 It's not a good injury, but
01:37 it's not surgical, but he's
01:38 going to miss some significant
01:40 time, unfortunately, and Dan
01:42 Campbell said it's not as bad
01:44 as it looked. And I'm
01:45 paraphrasing, but the news
01:47 isn't good either. And they're
01:48 waiting officially MRI by video.
01:51 We believe it was a lateral
01:52 collateral ligament poster
01:54 lateral corner sprain,
01:55 which is a very common injury
01:57 in the Super Bowl. And if you
01:58 go to the Twitter timeline, you
02:00 can see the video of knees not
02:02 supposed to bend that way.
02:04 Maybe associated bone bruise.
02:05 Look, if the Lions can make it
02:07 to Las Vegas in the Super Bowl,
02:09 is it possible that Sam Laporta
02:11 could come back? I think it's
02:12 possible, but remains to be
02:14 seen.
