Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft had his worst fantasy performance in the past four games and looks to right the ship against the New Orleans Saints in Week 16. Kraft has been a solid tight end option for fantasy managers this season but laid an egg last week as he caught both targets for just 34 yards against the Seattle Seahawks. With Romeo Doubs making his return from concussion protocol, the pass-catching group got a bit more crowded with Doubs adding back into a group that features Kraft, Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks. Not only that, but Jordan Love and the Packers have featured the run game more prominently. Kraft is going to have to make his opportunities count when he gets them, but he has an excellent matchup with the Saints on tap as the Saints are a middle-of-the-pack defense against fantasy tight ends on the season. Consider Kraft a low-end fantasy TE1 for Week 16.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft had a pedestrian night at the office in the Packers' 30-13 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Kraft did not see a lot of volume, as he only had two passes come his way. He caught both for 34 yards as he was lost in the shuffle with Romeo Doubs (concussion) returning as another pass-catching weapon for quarterback Jordan Love. Kraft's fantasy value has been solid for much of the season so to leave this dud in the fantasy playoffs is a bit disappointing. The Packers head back home to Lambeau Field and will take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 16, where fantasy managers hope he is able to put forth more production. Consider Kraft a low-end fantasy TE1 for that matchup.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has been a solid fantasy tight end for much of the season and looks to keep that run going as the Packers face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Kraft has put together three straight double-digit fantasy performances, including last week against the Lions where he scored a touchdown on three catches for 41 yards. With seven touchdown grabs this season, Kraft is tied with Mark Andrews for second in touchdowns among tight ends, only behind George Kittle. With Kraft getting in the end zone and earning some consistent volume for the Packers, Kraft is plenty startable in Week 15 for fantasy managers.
Dec 13, 2024 6:18 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft continued his fine fantasy season as he got into the end zone in the Packers' 34-31 loss to the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions in Week 14. Kraft caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jordan Love in the third quarter; his only touchdown pass of the night. With only 20 passing attempts, there wasn't much volume to be had by the Packers' pass-catchers, but Kraft reeled 3-of-5 targets for 41 yards. Next up for the Packers is a date with the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15 where Kraft should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft will have his work cut out for him in Week 14 as the Packers travel to Detroit to take on the division-leading Lions. Kraft has been a solidly producing fantasy tight end for much of the season and returned top-12 value at the position last week with a 6-78 line against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. Up next are the Detroit Lions, who help Kraft in check in Week 9, to the tune of just four receptions for 34 yards. The Lions have given up the fewest fantasy points per game to the tight end position this season. If you're starting Kraft in fantasy lineups this week, you're hoping for a touchdown as a high-end streaming option.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was involved plenty in the Packers' passing game as the team beat the Miami Dolphins 30-17 on Thanksgiving night. Kraft's penchant for gaining and earning volume was on full display as he earned seven targets, catching six of them for 78 yards; all team-highs on the night. Running hot and cold for fantasy purposes, this was the rare game where Kraft put up a usable stat line without scoring a touchdown, so this game could be some growth in Kraft's role moving forward. Looking at Kraft's next matchup in Detroit against the rival Lions, he should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy purposes.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft is a high-end TE2 for his outing against the visiting Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving. Kraft had a stretch earlier this season between Weeks 4-8, where he was the TE4, but has seen his production tick down a bit as quarterback Jordan Love's pass attempts have scaled back amid a string of tough matchups. With wide receiver Romeo Doubs (concussion) ruled out for the matchup, Kraft and fellow pass-catchers Jayden Reed and Christian Watson should all get a slight bump in target share. However, fantasy managers can likely do better than the 24-year-old, as he's little more than a touchdown-dependent option unless the game evolves into a shootout. With two defensive units solid against the pass, it seems unlikely. He's RotoBaller's PPR TE14 in Week 13's ranks.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft found his way back into the good graces of fantasy managers as Kraft got into the end zone in the Packers' 38-10 rout over the San Francisco 49ers. Kraft did not earn a bunch of volume in the Packers' victory, as he caught both of his targets for 26 receiving yards, but his first catch was an 11-yard strike from quarterback Jordan Love to kick off the scoring for the Packers. There hasn't been much target volume to go around for the Packers, so Kraft has been more of a "touchdown-or-bust" tight end rather than an every-week starter. With the Packers hosting the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving in Week 13, Kraft is a high-end streaming tight end option for fantasy managers given that all 32 teams are playing next week.
Nov 24, 2024 10:53 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft looks to get out of his production slump as the Packers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. If you've started Kraft in fantasy football over the past couple of weeks, you've no doubt been disappointed. Just before the Packers' bye in Week 10, Kraft was held to four catches for 34 yards on six targets. Last week after the team's bye, Kraft was completely stymied with just one target and no catches. The Packers' offense has been in a funk lately with quarterback Jordan Love not throwing for double-digit touchdowns in the last three games. With the Packers set to tangle with a tough pass defense in the 49ers, Kraft is in the streaming category of fantasy tight ends this week, where you're hoping for a touchdown to make starting him worth it.
Nov 22, 2024 6:18 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was a non-factor in the Packers' 20-19 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 11. Kraft only earned just one target, a short target that was intercepted by Chicago's Terell Smith in the second quarter. The lack of involvement was felt in the Packers' passing attack which only had 17 pass attempts through the entire game. With the number of quality pass-catching options available for quarterback Jordan Love, there will be games like this by Kraft. With the Packers heading back home to host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12, Kraft should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy football.
Nov 17, 2024 6:34 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has been a very solid tight end for fantasy purposes this season and looks to keep up that standing when the Packers head to Chicago to take on the Bears in Week 11. Coming off the team's Week 10 bye week, Kraft is in a good spot to keep up his strong season where he's been a top-12 tight end in four of the last six games. While the target-earning potential hasn't quite been there for Kraft this season, he's making the most of his touches with four touchdowns in his past five games as a clear outlet for quarterback Jordan Love. The Bears are just middle of the road when it comes to defending tight ends as they're 15th in the NFL in tight end fantasy points allowed. Consider Kraft a low-end TE1 worth starting in the Packers' matchup with Chicago in Week 11.
Nov 15, 2024 4:34 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft blended into the background a bit as the Packers suffered defeat at the hands of the Detroit Lions 24-14. Kraft has been very productive for fantasy managers this season but his Week 9 output was very quiet. With six targets on the afternoon, Kraft put up just four receptions for 34 yards. Kraft also had one rushing attempt for two yards to convert a fourth-down conversion early on in the game. With the wide array of pass-catchers on the Packers, it can be a bit easier to blend in and with the Lions pressuring quarterback Jordan Love, that's exactly what happened. Kraft and the Packers will have Week 10 off on bye, but will be back on the field in Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. For fantasy purposes, Kraft should be viewed as a low-end TE1 in that matchup.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft looks to keep his awesome run of fantasy production going as the Packers host the Detroit Lions in Week 9. Kraft has been awesome for fantasy managers this season, but especially since Week 4, as Kraft has been a top-12 or better fantasy tight end in four of the last five weeks with five touchdowns in that span. He's averaged almost five receptions and 53 receiving yards in that span as well, so despite having the touchdowns propping him up a bit, the volume has been there for him each week in this potent Packers offense. Packers quarterback Jordan Love (groin) was listed as questionable in the team's final practice report and if he doesn't play in Week 9, Malik Willis will start. Willis at quarterback downgrades the pass-catchers across the board, but Kraft should be a near-universal TE1 start in fantasy no matter who is starting at quarterback for the Packers in Week 9.
Nov 1, 2024 6:44 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was very productive for the Packers as they were victorious on the road over the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-27. Kraft caught the only touchdown pass on the afternoon from Malik Willis, who entered the game following Jordan Love's exit with a groin injury. With 78 receiving yards, Kraft led the team on the receiving side in Week 8. The Packers' targets are typically spread out among many options, but Kraft has been a consistent contributor throughout the season for fantasy. With the Detroit Lions heading into town for a Week 9 NFC North showdown at the top of the division, consider Kraft a TE1 and as close to a must-start option as it gets at a weak tight end position.
Oct 27, 2024 5:04 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft returned to the scoring column in Week 7 and looks to repeat that this week as the Packers head down to Jacksonville to play the Jaguars in Week 8. Kraft caught a touchdown pass to save his week in Week 7 where he had three receptions for 33 yards on four targets. He's been excellent for fantasy managers over the past month, as since Week 4, Kraft has been the overall TE3 in fantasy points per game with two overall TE1 weeks in Week 4 and Week 5. Sometimes, it can be difficult for Kraft to stand out in a crowded pass-catching group that the Packers have, but he's reliably on the field a ton and is targeted plenty by quarterback Jordan Love. Against the Jaguars, Kraft should have less resistance than in most matchups as Jacksonville has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points per game to the tight end position. Kraft is a TE1 in Week 8 in a game where passing volume could be very high between both the Packers and Jaguars.
Oct 25, 2024 7:02 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft provided a quality game, highlighted by a touchdown catch in the team's 24-22 victory over the Houston Texans in Week 7. Kraft disappointed fantasy managers in Week 6 following the two consecutive weeks where he had been the overall TE1, but Kraft found the end zone in the second quarter for the first Packers touchdown of the game. Kraft caught 3-of-4 targets for 33 yards and a 14-yard touchdown grab that saw him lay out in the end zone to make the catch. It's a battle every week amongst the Packers' pass-catchers and with so many quality targets for quarterback Jordan Love, Kraft has been solidly involved more often than not. With the Packers heading to Jacksonville with a Week 8 matchup against the Jaguars, Kraft should be considered a low-end fantasy TE1.
Oct 20, 2024 6:30 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (groin) came off the Packers' final injury report after turning in three limited practices and is good to go as Green Bay takes on the Houston Texans in Week 7. After two consecutive overall TE1 performances in Weeks 4-5, Kraft came back down to earth with just two receptions for 13 yards in the Packers' win over the Cardinals. Kraft's down game had to do with the returning options back for the Packers, as Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson both came back to combine for three touchdowns. With so many weapons in tow for the Packers, Kraft's floor may be a bit lower than we'd like, but those two weeks where he was overall TE1 show the potential when he is targeted. Because of how shallow tight end is in fantasy, Kraft is a low-end TE1 against the Texans this week.
Oct 18, 2024 6:18 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (groin) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Kraft dealt with a groin injury during practice last week but managed to suit up for the Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals while playing 81% of the offensive snaps. The 23-year-old disappointed fantasy managers looking for a second straight big performance, as he caught just two of his four targets for a season-low 13 yards. Kraft scored three total touchdowns the previous two games, but this is a reminder that he's a volatile low-end TE1 for fantasy managers in an offense with a lot of mouths to feed through the air as long as Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks are all healthy. Barring a setback, Kraft should be active this Sunday against the Houston Texans.
Oct 17, 2024 3:34 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (groin) was listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week. Kraft popped up on Green Bay's injury report last Thursday with a groin injury, logging two limited sessions before suiting up for the Packers' Week 6 win over the Cardinals. The 23-year-old played a full complement of snaps (82%), though he disappointed with his performance, catching 2-of-4 targets for just 13 yards -- a season-low output -- as is the case sometimes in a deep Rolodex of competent Packers' skill players. However, his designation for the following two practices will be telling about his status ahead of Week 7's home tilt against the Houston Texans. If Kraft plays, he could be in store for a busy day with a litany of Packers' wideouts dinged up this week. If he can't, tight end Ben Sims would likely handle most of the TE duties with Luke Musgrave (ankle) on injured reserve.
Oct 16, 2024 9:27 PM EST
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was the odd man out from the big production in the Packers' 34-13 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6. Kraft, who had been the overall TE1 the last two weeks in fantasy football, was kept to a relatively quiet day, bringing in just two receptions on four targets for 13 yards. He also added a rushing attempt for two yards as he watched Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and Jayden Reed score receiving touchdowns from quarterback Jordan Love, who had four touchdown throws on the day. With the returning weapons back in the lineup for the Packers, it was possible that the targets would be spread out once again and that's exactly what happened as 10 Packers notched at least one target. Even after a quiet game from Kraft, he's still a low-end TE1 option when the Packers stay home to face the Houston Texans in Week 7.
