The Green Bay Packers brought in a ton of pass catchers for Jordan Love in the 2023 NFL Draft, but none of the incoming rookies have a story quite as interesting as former South Dakota State tight end Tucker Kraft.
The two-time FCS All-American has had a long journey to the NFL. From a difficult and tragic upbringing to NIL offers from top college programs like Alabama, Kraft has gone through enormous ups and downs prior to his pro career.
Now, after bringing the Jackrabbits their first FCS national title in program history, Kraft is ready for his next challenge after being taken by the Packers with the 78th overall pick in this year’s draft.
