The Kansas City Chiefs have been linked to a hypothetical trade for Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta as a potential successor to Travis Kelce. The proposed deal would send a first- and third-round pick to Detroit for the 25-year-old Pro Bowler, who is entering the final year of his rookie contract.

While LaPorta's recent injury history raises questions, his talent and long-term upside make him an intriguing target for Kansas City.
