The smile on his face the entire interview is just amazing. Dude is going to be a freaking legend
He's always smiling always. 😃 what a great Pick up for us.
That’s why we call him the golden receiver
he seems like he's trying to hold it back at times. that tells you that it's REAL and he's SUPER happy to be with Coach Dan and the Lions. Love it.
He’s everything I wanted out of a TE.
I don’t expect Kelce numbers but he can BLOCK, have good receiving hands, run good routes, CLUTCH, and an outstanding rookie coming in. Thank you Sam Laporta!
From a Eagles Fan I Agree With U 100% About Sam Even Though He’s a Detroit Lions Player!
Thanks friend! Best of luck to you guys next year. I Love the Eagles wings on the helmet
@@joncena168 No Problem and Thanks Shame My Eagles Are Out of The Playoffs!
He out played Kelce this year…
@@FanGirl9463I think he meant prime Kelce numbers
Seems like a genuinely good guy. Glad he’s with us
If you get a chance, go watch his pro day interview for the Lions and hear him talk with Dan Campbell. He comes across so well.
In a couple years I believe Sam LaPorta will be considered the best TE in the game. Another brilliant move by Brad Holmes. Trades Hockenson and drafts Sam at a fraction of the cost of what TJ got paid by the Vikings.
Dude is baby gronk, never imagined he would be so good on the run blocking side. He likes hitting dudes just as much as catching TDs. What a beast!!
Agree 100%❤
I am a born and bred Wolverine bit Iowa is my #2 in the BIG 10. Great program, turns out talent and good men!
If things go to plan he's gonna cost more than TJ did, but it will actually be worth it
I am ridiculously glad he is a Lion
They win games because he plays
👍👍👍👍
This Lions team is just full of great humble dudes who are smart enough to take coaching
BH looks for certain qualities in the guys he drafts. If you look at every pick he’s made, they’re all solid character guys. They come across as genuinely good dudes, aside from being good players. From Penei, Iffy, McNeill and Saint in 2021, Hutch and Jamo in 2022, Jahmyr, Campbell, Branch and Sam, they’re all for lack of a better word, “happy”. They’re happy playing football. They’re having fun. Whenever they’re interviewed, they’re cheesing the entire time. It seems like the type of locker room a player would love.
@@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogson That is why CJ does not fit in. Hopefully we say sdios to him next year
GREAT analogy. I love these guys, humble, GREAT GUYS these young Lions.
@@edbarnard7157sometimes a guy like Cj is helpful to bring out the dog in guys. When players have that dog in em, they tend to be a certain way. I'll agree I was reticent at first but CJ seems to have the ability to temper that dog a little bit (at least externally) to have some professionalism and respect and I think that's what makes him different then say a guy like antionio brown or vontez burfect
@@edbarnard7157 Every team need a CJ.
I remember the draft aficionados questioning why the lions drafted him instead of the ND TE.... Can't remember that dude's name & LaPorta had one of the best seasons by a rookie TE ever.
Right. WHO?! Although in fairness I think any of those dudes would have benefitted from the situation in Detroit, but maybe not able to take advantage as much
Lions team is greater than any of its individual parts. Kinda reminds me of the 04 Pistons. One Pride baby, Let’s Go!!!!!!!
I said the same thing in a previous post. I think you're spot on.😊 let's go Lions!
Bro said “George is a hoot” no other TE I’d rather have
What an interview, Sam seems like a intelligent person. Refreshing! Rich seemed to enjoy talking to him
This kid is the TE we’ve needed for years!! LFG!! 🔥
Sam sounds like a man wiser than his young age and intelligent. Rookie TE with his level of production, in a position that takes years to master, super impressive.
Good Job Sam thank you for a great season GO LIONS
This kid is a beast 🦁
He will be the best tight end in the league sooner than later. Already a Stud.
Yeah like next year, dude is so legit.
Great interviewer and great interviewee.
What a great interview. He sure did win me my Fantasy League as Rich mentioned! Pulling for them in the playoffs
Had the fortune of meeting his parents and his sister at the season opener at arrowhead when they sat a few rows up from us. Very classy family and Sam Laporta has quickly become one of my favorite lions after that chance encounter! Go Lions!!
Absolutely Love that Guy His Route Running his attitude on and off the field his Respect for Coach Campbell Jared and St Brown just top notch I am So proud to have him here in Detroit with us. We'll see you Next week Stud in Detroit when we take on TB.
His run blocking!! Never expected him to be so good at that part. He smokes dudes
We call him the “golden receiver” in Detroit cuz the man never stops smiling like my pups. Love this dude
Hes a hoot! I love this guy!!!!
I love being able to watch the ballad of sammy the door be written. Dude is gonna be a legend when it's all said and done. First ballot
LaPorta is the best! Love that dude. go lions!
Man I freakin love this kid 🔥 we’re in good hands
as a Bills fan it is easy for me to say that the Lions are easy to like..they all have stories of rising above the fray and carve their own path..hope they meed the Bills in the SB..would be epic..
Damn, Brad hit this pick out of the park, Sam has been incredible since day one. He seems wise beyond his years too, very well spoken.
GREAT KID...GREAT PLAYER.....hope he stays healthy and remains a viable piece to Detroit's success for next ten years....
The LaPorta pickup is unexplainable with the importance in the aspect of where the Lions are @ right now in this moment. This young man is an absolute STUD
He's already the greatest TE in Lion's history. Keep it up Sam LaPorta! Go Lions!
From Parks and Recreation to Tight End for Detroit Lions! Chris "Sam LaPorta" Pratt, is awesome!
Chris Evans is Captain America, you are thinking of Chris Pratt lmao
@@taylorsova2594 what are you talking about?.. (pay no attention to the "edited" part). 😁
He reminds me of Ben from always sunny when I see him talk
Sam is a true pro. So good! Love my Lions! Super Bowl bound
LaPorta is a beast. The Lions draft class has played such a big part of the success this year. I've been happy since Day 1 of the draft. Holmes and MCDC have done a great job building a winner.
Rich, you’re not supposed to be helping Iowa with recruiting 😂😂
Sam so reminds me of gronk. He's a little smaller but man he looks just like him when he's got the ball in his hands. He's so hard to tackle. What a find
He's a beast
Sam LaGOATa > TJ Dropenson. Love the upgrade by Brad Holmes
Crazy to think he's already a top 3 TE in the league
Thanks for the Michigan love, Rich. I love Sam! Rookie season and he's the best TE in Lions history...at least in my 52 years.
Love that dude. What a player!
He helped me win my NFL fantasy league this was my second championship in 4 years. I was .6 from 3 out 4.
My favorite tight end in the league since gronk! And what makes it even better he’s a LION!
Gibbs and LaPORTA is going to be big for us this next decade! Thank you Mr.Holmes
This Detroit team has at the very least 5 future HOFers..Mark this comment.
Sewell Hutch st brown
Branch LaPorta
Holmes Campbell
Hamp
Sewell should have got a gold jacket on draft day.
@@AaronDrofwarc Sewell is 23 years old and has allowed only ONE sack all year. Great draft pick.
I was excited when we drafted him after I learned a little about him and what he could bring to the table. And damn, talk about exceeding expectations. This dude is already a super dependable playmaker! Making big catches is big situations! And ppl were saying we should have took Michael Mayer from ND.
Sam is a rare one, he constantly applies constructive criticism to himself. Completely humble and driven! He will be all pro by year 3 as well!
Brad Holmes finds the guys built like this and have athletic talent. Dan expects no less, to quote, "no turds".
Dudes an absolute stud
That Guy!
Absolutely love this guy!
Great Interview man.
Remember when everybody was confused why we didn't draft Michael Mayer. They definitely made the right choice
He’s a sweet kid and a total monster on the field. Love that he is our guy
Let's go Lions!
Very cool kid, great interview. Still rooting for the Bucs 💪
I remember I was shocked when they traded TJ. Then after watching Sam play, I was like “ oh, I get it now.”
Love YEW Sam! Thank YEW Sam!
LaPorta rocks!
Whether it's Oline, Dline, LB, or of course TE, it's hard to go wrong with a Ferentz-coached kid!
I never pick Lions in fantasy. This year I had Gibbs, LaPorta, and Montgomery.... and I won my league.
Honored to have him as a Lion
Join me in the LaPorta Party🎉
That was the name of my fantasy team this year LaPorta Party
Dan Skipper is 6' 10" 330lb. That is a BIG man.
Let’s go Sam!
He’s the epitome of the player type that Dan & Glen are wanting on the field. Roll up your sleeves, hard nose humble professionals.
Sam is a beast!
He seems like a good dude
Isnt this a re upload? I swear i wayched this earlier.
No ur just slow
Sam LaGoata 🐐
Thats my fantasy football CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING dynasty TE right there
Why's rich call him Sam or Sam laporta after 98% of the questions like he ain't the only one he's talking to?
Ya, rather annoying
He does that with every guest, its infuriating. I wonder if he needs to remind himself of who he's talking to or letting them know he's done talking?
❤
Hey Taylor.. He's single
Why does he look like Mike Birbiglia hahaha
I thought he was exaggerating -- Dan Skipper is indeed 6'10"
Holy smokes
Does anyone else get creeped out every time Rich says a guy’s name two seconds after he asks a question?
No. Must be you. Take a pill ?
listen to what sam says about goff and fucking tell me you don't want to extend that man!
Goff ? Joe Cool. He was a huge star in high school and college and pros in California and did not whimper when he got traded to Detroit. He will get the last laugh.
If the Lions play 3 playoff games almost every player on the team will hold Lions franchise playoff records.
sammy the kid
Sam LaGOATa
Quirky and original Sam.
Every house In the state was full of crying men… one pride!
Rich stop saying his name after every question! Lol
Lagoata
LAPORTA
Idk why, but Rich seemed a little rude to Sam at times.
Does anyone else find it extremely annoying how Rich has to add “Sam” at the end of every single question? So awkward.
One of a handful of annoying tics he has. I just laugh now.
Really no idea why he does it. So unnecessary and just weird
No
What filter is he using?
where are the clowns who laughed at lions for taking him over ND guy? or Gibbs at 12
Stop saying his name after every question!!
Pretty messed up rich is trying to jinx the lions
Did you know the ref who screwed the Lions with that call Brad and the NFL said he will not do a playoff game was spotted on the sidelines of the Steelers game talking to Mike Tomlin in the playoffs and the NFL is a joke
proof ?
It's on tape when he was talking to the coach I believe it is on Utube and I believe you can find it
And his face was covered but that was him
@@ericescruggs2554 I don't believe you. It could have been putin for all you know.
It was him check the video and you must be a Trump supporter
Go bulldogs
Do you remember eric ebron. always dropping passes and jessie james a overrated and overpaid TE from the quinntricia era,😢
Goff Was fortunate enough to play a rams team with basically no pass rush and a defensive coordinator that doesn't like to blitz And was lucky to win the game by one point.
Bottom line? They won.
So what you are saying is that the Lions were divisional Champions, and won their first round! You are a great Lions fan! Go Lions!
now say this without crying please
You better hope the 49ers win Saturday night. Otherwise we are going to Vegas
Great interview. Thanks
