A positive update on Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft: according to both Ian Rapoport of NFL Network and Adam Schefter of ESPN, Kraft is "OK" after an injury scare during Thursday's practice.
Kraft was added to the injury report on Thursday with a left knee injury suffered at practice, but Schefter reported the third-year tight end will be "all good" after tests on the injury post-practice. Rapoport called the knee injury a "little tweak" but said Kraft "checked out OK" after testing.
It remains unclear if Kraft, who leads the Packers in receptions and receiving yards through two weeks, will play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. However, it is clear that the worst-case scenario -- such as a season-ending ACL tear -- has been avoided. With only three days of recovery available before kickoff on Sunday, Kraft is probably unlikely to play against the Browns, but the final injury report on Friday afternoon will provide an official status designation.
According to Matt Schneidman and Dianna Russini of The Athletic, Kraft still has a chance to play Sunday, but how he feels on Friday will play a big factor in his availability.
Kraft, a rising star at tight end to start 2025, has eight catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns through two games. He caught six passes for a career-high 124 yards and a touchdown against the Washington Commanders in Week 2.
The Packers and Browns are scheduled for a noon CT kickoff from Huntington Bank Stadium in Cleveland on Sunday. Inactives will be due 90 minutes before kickoff.
