Packers' Luke Musgrave's Season in Jeopardy After Kidney Injury
Rookie tight end, close to breaking franchise records, aims for return despite severe injury.
- Green Bay Packers rookie tight end Luke Musgrave suffered a lacerated kidney during a game against the Los Angeles Chargers last month, derailing an excellent debut season.
- Musgrave spent about a month on the sideline, and while he has returned to football activities, he has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Carolina.
- Given the severity of the injury and the fact that only two games remain after Sunday, there's a chance Musgrave's season is over.
- In 10 games, Musgrave caught 33 passes for 341 yards and one touchdown, coming close to breaking franchise records for rookie tight ends.
- Despite his injury, Musgrave's goal is to return to the field as soon as possible.
