Trey McBride Stands Out in Joint Practice With Packers

Wednesday, August 26, 11:35 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride was the team's standout during Wednesday's joint practice with Green Bay, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. That's not exactly a surprise after the season McBride just put together. He caught 126 passes on 169 targets for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2025, setting the NFL single-season record for receptions by a tight end. McBride was also a near-unanimous first-team All-Pro, receiving 49 of 50 first-place votes. Arizona has treated him like one of its established stars this preseason, including holding him out of Saturday's game against Dallas. He has now posted at least 100 catches and 1,000 receiving yards in back-to-back seasons, becoming the first tight end in league history with consecutive 100-catch campaigns. Wednesday's showing doesn't change much for fantasy purposes. McBride already enters 2026 as the clear centerpiece of Arizona's passing game.

Luke Musgrave News

Luke Musgrave Likely to Begin the Season on PUP List

Tuesday, August 18, 6:01 AM

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave (neck) is currently on the physically unable to perform list due to a neck injury sustained during the team's mandatory minicamp in June, and there's a growing belief he could carry the designation into the regular season. In a recent 53-man roster projection, CHTV co-founder Aaron Nagler and Justis Mosqueda of Acme Packing Company have Musgrave starting the regular season on the PUP list, making him ineligible to play in the team's first four games. Multiple tight end sets project to be a major part of the Packers offense in 2026, but with Musgrave potentially unavailable to begin the year and Tucker Kraft (knee) facing a potential snap count as he works back from the ACL injury that ended his 2025 campaign, that plan could be put on pause. With the team potentially leaning on three-receiver sets early in the season, the trio of Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, and Jayden Reed all become attractive targets at their current draft costs.
