Packers' LaFleur defends Tucker Kraft's low block vs. Vikings

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- A day after Vikings linebacker Jonathan Greenard criticized Packers tight end Tucker Kraft for a low block that injured Vikings linebacker Pat Jones II in Sunday's game, Packers coach Matt LaFleur defended his player's actions.

LaFleur called it "a totally legal play" and said it was "the same thing their guys were doing to our defensive ends."

Greenard posted on social media that Kraft should, "Be a man block up high" and called for the NFL to get rid of that kind of block.
