Tucker Kraft Expects to Come Off PUP List "Very Soon"

Wednesday, July 29, 11:29 AM

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) said he will "probably come off the PUP here very soon," according to Ryan Wood of the USA Today Sports Network. The Packers placed Kraft on the Physically Unable to Perform list to open training camp as he continues to rehab from a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 9 of last season. General manager Brian Gutekunst said on Wednesday that Week 1 of the 2026 regular season is "very much a possibility" for Kraft, especially if he rejoins the team at practice soon. The 25-year-old former third-rounder in 2023 from South Dakota State was one of the top players at his position before his season-ending knee injury in 2025, and he's poised for a breakout campaign in 2026 once he's back to full speed. Kraft had 32 catches for 489 yards and six touchdowns on 44 targets through only eight games last year. Despite coming off a serious knee injury, RotoBaller has Kraft ranked as its No. 5 fantasy TE as he heads into Year 4. The Packers are going to be cautious with Kraft once he returns to the field, and they could also make him the league's highest-paid tight end before the start of the regular season.

Tyler Warren Has High Hopes for Colts Offense in 2026

Tuesday, July 28, 6:03 AM

Indianapolis Colts veterans have reported for training camp, and second-year tight end Tyler Warren shared his excitement about the team's offense, telling a group of gathered reporters, "I think everybody's really excited... from an offensive standpoint, coming back with the same coaching staff, same core group of guys. It's always exciting to be able to build off of what you were able to do last year." The Colts had one of the league's most potent offenses before quarterback Daniel Jones went down with a torn Achilles in Week 14, with Warren pacing as the fantasy TE3 to that point as a rookie. With Michael Pittman Jr. no longer part of the team, Warren is expected to see heavy usage in the intermediate area of the field, and with Alec Pierce beginning training camp on the PUP after undergoing ankle surgery in March, the second-year tight end could build a sizable role throughout the summer. Warren is RotoBaller's TE4 and a player who could see enough volume in year two to make him a legitimate threat to finish at the top of the position in 2026.
