Tucker Kraft News
Wednesday, May 27, 12:59 PM
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said he is "hopeful" that tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) could be back "by training camp or during training camp," per Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. Kraft is currently recovering from the torn ACL that ended his 2025 season in Week 9. The 25-year-old looked to be on his way to a breakout season before the injury, recording 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns on 44 targets across eight games played. While Kraft hasn't been the highest-volume target-earner to this point in his career, his career average of 13.7 yards per reception is remarkably efficient for the tight end position. Additionally, Kraft could play an even larger role in the Green Bay offense in 2026 following the team's offseason subtractions of wide receivers Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks. Assuming Kraft remains on track in his recovery for the start of the 2026 season, he profiles as a steady fantasy TE1 with upside.

Brock Bowers News
Thursday, May 28, 11:31 AM
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) is participating in OTA practice this week and was getting open with ease on Thursday, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Bowers was the consensus top fantasy TE going into last season after he caught 112 passes on 153 targets for 1,194 yards and five touchdowns in 17 games in his rookie campaign. However, the 23-year-old former 13th overall pick out of the University of Georgia initially injured his knee in Week 1 and missed Weeks 5-7 as a result. He was never the same the rest of the way and finished with a disappointing 64-680-7 line in 12 contests (eight starts) in his sophomore campaign. Now apparently fully healthy and dominating in practices already, Bowers is a clear bounce-back candidate with league-winning upside at the position in a new offense led by head coach Klint Kubiak and new quarterbacks Kirk Cousins and rookie first overall pick Fernando Mendoza. Last year's down year due to injuries isn't really going to allow fantasy managers to purchase Bowers at a discount in 2026. He's currently ranked as the No. 2 overall TE, behind only Arizona's Trey McBride.
