AutoDraft Pro AI

Following Tucker Kraft's season-ending ACL tear, Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave has emerged as the clear lead tight end. In the team's first game without Kraft, Musgrave played 52 total snaps, trailing only Christian Watson and Jordan Love among non-linemen on offense. While the Packers' offense struggled, Musgrave drew three targets, catching all three for 23 yards, and also drew a crucial 21-yard pass-interference penalty that led to the team's only touchdown. He was previously considered a potential "move tight end" in 12 personnel.
