With Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft back for Year 2, the Green Bay Packers will start training camp on July 22 with a dynamic duo of tight ends.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers arrived at training camp last summer with high hopes for rookie tight ends Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft. When they arrive for the start of training camp this month, they will have high expectations for their dynamic duo.
“I think they both have a little bit different flavor to them, which allows for more flexibility on the offensive side of the ball. They’re both great dudes that love the game of football. To see where they are from a year ago, it’s night and day.”Tight ends who are 6-foot-6 with 4.61 speed in the 40 and 36-inch vertical leaps don’t grow on trees. That’s why the Packers selected him in the second round of last year’s draft despite a relatively nondescript career at Oregon State.
“Tyler’s a stud,” tight ends coach John Dunn said before OTAs. “There’s not enough good words I can say about Tyler, just him really being one of the veterans in the room, just the guidance. Obviously, before the injury, just the example on the field or in the meeting room how you go about your business, how to be a pro. He loves this game, he loves this team.”Musgrave seemed to be just hitting his stride with catches of 36, 26 and 25 yards in his last two full games before the injury.
