Lions vs Bills Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks
Sam LaPorta Anytime Touchdown (+230)
This is a great matchup for Sam LaPorta.
Although he only scored three touchdowns last year, he looked great in Week 1 and appears fully healthy. Even though he didn't reach the end zone against the Saints, he still logged eight targets — including two in the red zone.
Tonight, he faces a Bills defense that had trouble slowing down the Texans' passing game last week.
We know LaPorta is firmly established as the TE1 in this offense, and he ran the third-most routes among all Lions pass-catchers in Week 1.
With 20 career touchdowns over a 42-game sample size, his TD odds haven't been priced above +250 since his rookie season.
At +220, I’ll gladly bank on LaPorta finding the end zone for his first touchdown of the year.
Pick: Sam LaPorta Anytime Touchdown (+230)
