Who Should I Start? Luke Musgrave or Tucker Kraft

Friday, January 9, 2:12 PM

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave has not scored double-digit fantasy points in any game this season, failing to register a single reception in four different games, including Weeks 17 and 18. Musgrave was a popular waiver wire add following Tucker Kraft's (knee) season-ending injury in Week 9, but he failed to capitalize on the expanded role, and he should be viewed as an afterthought in most fantasy playoff formats. Musgrave finished the 2026 season with 24 catches for 252 yards and no touchdowns, and he is RotoBaller's TE12 for a Wild Card Weekend that sees 12 teams in action.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) suffered a torn ACL in Week 9 of the 2025 season, putting an early end to a promising breakout campaign. Across his eight games played before getting hurt, the 25-year-old recorded 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns on 44 targets. Even with the injury, recent reporting indicates that the Packers have begun extension negotiations with Kraft, signaling that the young tight end remains a big piece in the team's plans. Green Bay traditionally spreads the ball around to a multitude of pass catchers, which limits Kraft's volume-related production. However, he has proven the ability to be highly efficient on a low number of targets. For his career, Kraft is averaging 13.7 yards per reception and has hauled in 15 touchdown grabs on just 154 total targets. Given the timing of his injury, Kraft has a chance to be ready for the start of the 2026 season. Despite the unfortunate injury setback, Kraft remains a high-end tight end option for dynasty fantasy managers coming out of 2025.
