The Seahawks have been tough when it comes to defending tight ends, boasting a streak of eight games without allowing a tight end to score 14 or more PPR points. On paper, they’ve been particularly harsh this season, granting tight ends the fourth-fewest PPR fantasy points. A closer look reveals that three of those games were against tight end groups ranking in the bottom 10 for fantasy points.

In contrast, Sam LaPorta’s performance against the Seahawks in Week 2 stands out. He managed to secure five receptions for 63 yards on six targets, totaling 11.3 PPR fantasy points. What makes this feat noteworthy is that LaPorta is the only tight end to have seen more than three targets against the Seahawks this season.
