ANALYSIS: With news breaking that Green Bay tight end Luke Musgrave will be placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a lacerated kidney in Week 11, rookie Tucker Kraft is in line to be the Packers' new starting tight end.

Kraft was selected 38 picks after fellow rookie Musgrave in the 2023 NFL draft after putting together an impressive college career at South Dakota State, posting 1,218 yards and nine TDs on 99 career receptions with the Jackrabbits.
He's been firmly behind Musgrave on the Green Bay depth chart but has started to earn playing time recently and logged a career high 32 yards on two catches in the Packers Week 11 win over the Chargers.
With Musgrave now sidelined for at least the next four games, Kraft will slot in as the squad's clear TE1. He should only be considered in deeper or TE-premium leagues at the moment, though he's a name that fantasy managers should file in their memory banks, as he has pass-catching ability and could soon be equaling Musgraves' production.
