Overview

  • The tight end injured his left knee during Thursday's practice and was added to the Week 3 injury report as a limited participant.
  • Post-practice tests indicated only a minor issue, with multiple reports describing the injury as a "little tweak" that is not believed to be long term.
  • His availability for the Browns game remains uncertain due to the timing, with clarity expected from Friday’s final designations and pregame inactives.
  • If he is held out, Luke Musgrave would take on a larger role, with John FitzPatrick and Ben Sims available for added snaps.
  • Kraft leads Green Bay through two games with eight catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns, heightening the impact as Jayden Reed and Christian Watson remain out.
