Tucker Kraft Should be "Full-Go" by Week 1

Tuesday, June 23, 10:15 AM

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) could start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list this summer, but he should be "full-go" by the time the team visits the division-rival Minnesota Vikings in the 2026 regular-season opener in September, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Kraft was arguably the league's best player at the TE position in 2025 before he suffered a season-ending torn ACL in Week 9, as he had 32 catches on 44 targets for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight starts. The 25-year-old former third-round pick (78th overall) in 2023 out of South Dakota State has looked swift while rehabbing on a side field during offseason workouts, and he said he recently hit 21.5 mph on foot. As long as Kraft doesn't suffer any sort of setbacks during training camp and the preseason, he'll be a popular breakout candidate at the TE position after his strong showing in eight games a year ago. The Packers let receiver Romeo Doubs walk in free agency and traded Dontayvion Wicks to the Philadelphia Eagles, so even more targets could be coming Kraft's way in 2026. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 5 fantasy TE.

Kenyon Sadiq News

Kenyon Sadiq Expected to be Ready for Training Camp

Monday, June 29, 8:58 AM

New York Jets rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) missed organized team activities and minicamp after having hernia surgery that stemmed from an injury in college, but the Jets said they were aware of it during the pre-draft process earlier this year. Sadiq is expected to be ready for training camp this summer, although he'll be a bit behind, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Offensive coordinator Frank Reich envisions the University of Oregon product as a mismatch because of his speed and explosiveness, so he should have a role in his first year in the NFL alongside second-year TE Mason Taylor. The 16th overall pick in this year's NFL draft is an athletic freak at 6-foot-3 and 241 pounds and will be a popular selection in rookie-only dynasty/keeper leagues, but fantasy managers in redraft formats might want to temper expectations a bit in an offense with veteran quarterback Geno Smith leading the charge. At RotoBaller, Sadiq is ranked as the No. 17 fantasy TE. There's obvious pass-catching upside due to his athleticism, but there are plenty of questions as to how involved he'll be every week.
