Brock Wright News
The Detroit Lions officially placed tight end Brock Wright (forearm) on Injured Reserve and signed defensive lineman Tyson Alualu to the 53-man active roster from the practice squad and signed tight end Zach Ertz to the practice squad in corresponding moves. Wright will miss the rest of the postseason with a fractured forearm that he suffered in the Divisional Round win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 25-year-old finished the regular season with only 13 catches for 91 yards and one touchdown in a backup role behind impressive rookie Sam LaPorta. Ertz will give the Lions some veteran depth the rest of the way, but it's unclear if he'll even be active in the NFC Championship this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Anthony Firkser figures to be the primary backup behind LaPorta.
Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright (forearm) apparently suffered a broken forearm in Sunday's Divisional Round win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It's a tough break for Wright, as he had just come back to play against the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the playoffs after suffering a hip injury in the Week 15 win over the Denver Broncos. Wright is now unlikely to play in the rest of the postseason. As a result, the Lions have signed veteran Zach Ertz for extra tight end depth behind rookie Sam LaPorta for the NFC Championship this Sunday night. Detroit also has Anthony Firkser as a backup option behind LaPorta. The 25-year-old Wright caught his only target for a big 29-yard gain in Sunday's win over the Bucs, and he finished the regular season with just 13 catches for 91 yards and one touchdown in his third NFL campaign.
Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright caught just 13 passes for 91 yards and a touchdown during the regular season, but if Sam LaPorta (knee) cannot suit up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, he will enter the DFS radar. LaPorta suffered a minor knee injury in the Week 18 win over the Minnesota Vikings, but he ultimately played and scored a touchdown in the win over the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the NFL Playoffs. He logged a full practice on Wednesday this week but was downgraded to limited practices on Thursday and Friday. There's a chance he suffered a setback, which could explain why he's listed as questionable for the Divisional Round. If Wright draws the start, he could have limited upside, but he's a fine dart throw against a Tampa Bay defense that allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to the position in the regular season.
