Not only are the Green Bay Packers expecting to place tight end Luke Musgrave on injured reserve with a serious ankle injury, but the team’s ascending star at the tight end position — Tucker Kraft — now has a groin injury.
The Packers added Kraft to the Week 6 injury report on Thursday. He was listed as limited during Thursday’s practice.
The injuries to Musgrave and Kraft help explain why the Packers are signing tight end John FitzPatrick off the practice squad of the Atlanta Falcons.
Musgrave and Kraft were the only updates to the injury report on Thursday.
