Sam LaPorta on track for Lions training camp after back issue fades
Tight end cleared for limited minicamp action as Detroit eyes full clearance before camp opens next month.

Head coach Dan Campbell confirmed LaPorta took part as a limited participant in the team’s mandatory minicamp, signaling progress toward a full return. Campbell’s assessment was blunt: the tight end is trending the right way and on track to be fully cleared before training camp opens next month.
