Kraft (groin) is participating in Tuesday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft missed practice Saturday due to a groin injury, but he now appears to be back on the field without limitations. The 2023 third-round pick impressed in terms of YAC in 2024 while mostly garnering receptions close to the line of scrimmage, but heading into Year 3 there's been some buzz that Kraft could get more involved downfield, a development that would increase his odds of truly breaking out for fantasy purposes. Still, in Green Bay's crowded receiving corps, it could be a struggle for Kraft to command consistent targets on a weekly basis, even if he does take another step forward.

Kraft was unable to practice Saturday due to a groin injury, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft had gotten through training camp with a clean bill of health prior to this injury, and there had been some buzz about him becoming a more impactful member of the Packers' offense this season. There's no indication that this injury will threaten his status to begin the campaign, but little is known at this point.

Coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that the Packers "absolutely" believe they can get Kraft more involved in the downfield passing game this season, Mark Oldacres of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Among 45 qualified tight ends last season, Kraft's average depth of target (4.7 yards) was 42nd at the position. He did most of his work on underneath looks at or close to the line of scrimmage. As a result, Kraft led all NFL tight ends in yards after catch per reception (8.8 yards) and was 14th in yards per route (1.55). The Packers have a ton of mouths to feed in the passing offense, so getting Kraft more involved down the field may be easier said than done. Kraft is being selected as a borderline TE1 in early fantasy football drafts this summer.

Kraft recorded five receptions on five targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles. He added two rushes for 10 yards.

EDGE Analysis

The Packers dealt with a rash of injuries among their pass catchers, and Kraft was able to lead the team in receptions as a result. He was used primarily in short-area situations, which led to a modest yardage total. Despite the mediocre close to his second pro season, Kraft increased his production across the board and clearly wrestled the top spot on the depth chart from Luke Musgrave. He should remain a key contributor to Green Bay's offense in 2025.

Kraft caught four of seven targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft led the Packers in targets as Green Bay played without Romeo Doubs (illness) and lost Christian Watson (knee) in the second quarter. Fellow second-year tight end Luke Musgrave missed most of the regular season due to an ankle injury, allowing Kraft to blossom in the lead role. Kraft capitalized on his opportunity with 50 catches for 707 yards and seven touchdowns on 70 targets. As the No. 7 seed, the Packers will travel to Philadelphia in the wild-card round.

Kraft recorded two catches on three targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft saw limited opportunity in the close loss but made the most of his targets. He accounted for Green Bay's two longest plays from scrimmage with 35- and 18-yard receptions to finish second on the team in yardage. Kraft's volume remains limited due to the range of pass-catching options in the Packer's offense, though he's emerged as a big-play threat by recording a catch of at least 20 yards in four straight contests.

Kraft (hip) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest in Minnesota, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft followed an LP/LP/FP practice regimen this week, while fellow tight end Luke Musgrave was listed as limited on all three Week 17 practice reports. Both players have been cleared for Sunday's game, which should result in Kraft taking on a majority share of the Packers' TE reps. Over the last five games, Kraft has combined for a 16-242-2 line on 20 targets.

Kraft (hip) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The Packers have capped the practice reps of both Kraft and Luke Musgrave (ankle) this week, but there's been no indication that the second-year tight ends are in danger of sitting out Sunday in Minnesota. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not either player has a designation for that contest.

Kraft was listed as limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a hip injury.

EDGE Analysis

Luke Musgrave (ankle) had the same listing, which is no surprise coming two days after his first game action since Week 4. As for Kraft, the hip issue is a new health concern, so the statuses of both tight ends will be watched as the week goes on. Since getting blanked on one target Week 11 at Chicago, Kraft has reeled off a 16-242-2 line on 20 targets over the last five contests.

Kraft caught three of four targets for 63 yards while gaining two yards on his only carry in Monday's 34-0 blowout win over New Orleans.

EDGE Analysis

Kraft tied Jayden Reed in receptions while finishing just 13 yards behind the wideout for the team lead. The tight end's production was especially positive given the fact that Green Bay threw for just 216 yards. Kraft also recorded his third rushing attempt of the season, all of which have gone for two yards apiece. The 24-year-old brings a solid floor to the table for fantasy managers against the Vikings on Sunday.
