Luke Musgrave Could be Dealing With Long-Term Neck Injury

Wednesday, July 29, 11:42 AM

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said that tight end Luke Musgrave (neck) is dealing with a neck injury, and the team is proceeding cautiously while trying to determine if it's a long-term injury, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The Packers tend to be extra cautious with neck injuries, meaning it's unlikely that the 25-year-old will come off the Physically Unable to Perform list during training camp anytime soon. Fellow TE Tucker Kraft (knee) is also on the PUP list to start camp after tearing his ACL in Week 9 of last year, but all indications are that he should be ready to practice sooner rather than later. Musgrave failed to take advantage of Kraft's knee injury in 2025, catching 24 of his 31 targets for 252 yards and zero touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (10 starts), and the former second-rounder in 2023 from Oregon State has found the end zone just once in his three NFL seasons. Even if Musgrave is ready for the 2026 regular-season opener in early September, he'll be off the fantasy radar in all redraft formats as long as Kraft is active as well.

Noah Gray Has Limited Dynasty Appeal

Sunday, July 26, 9:50 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray remains more valuable to his real-life team than to most dynasty managers. He played 545 offensive snaps last season, nearly half of Kansas City's total, but turned 37 targets into only 21 catches for 178 yards without a touchdown. That came one year after he posted career highs with 40 receptions, 437 yards, and five scores. The drop was not about getting pushed off the field. Gray simply did not see enough useful targets to repeat the fantasy production. Kansas City still lists him among its primary tight ends entering camp, but Travis Kelce remains the clear focus after catching 76 passes for 851 yards and five touchdowns in 2025. Jared Wiley is also entering his third season after playing only 28 offensive snaps last year. Gray can stay on deep contending rosters, particularly in tight end-premium leagues or as insurance for Kelce managers. Rebuilders have little reason to wait on a 27-year-old whose best season still produced modest volume. He is a hold in very deep formats, not a dynasty target.
