Tight end Tucker Kraft has emerged as a captivating figure for the Green Bay Packers over the past two seasons. His dynamic performances on the field, coupled with his vibrant personality, have garnered the admiration of both fans and teammates.
Kraft’s progression has been impressive, and he plays a significant role in the locker room. In 2024, he caught 70 passes for 707 yards and scored seven touchdowns, solidifying his status as the Packers’ leading tight end. On Tuesday, during the 2025 Tailgate Tour, he engaged with the media, reflecting on his life in Green Bay and the significance of being part of the team.
“I ended up exactly where I was meant to be,” Kraft expressed. “Green Bay, known as the smallest city with a franchise, is actually the largest city I’ve ever lived in; I’m thrilled about that.” When questioned about his future in Green Bay, Kraft simply stated, “I don’t know. I live here full-time.”
He is anticipated to assume a larger role in Green Bay’s offense and is prepared to embrace more responsibilities off the field. After the Packers’ 22-10 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card round, Kraft declared his intention to step up as a leader next season. With such a youthful roster, having more voices willing to lead is beneficial for the team’s development and direction.
Tucker Kraft feels at home in Green Bay and its community. If he maintains his 2024 performance level, the Packers will likely aim to make him one of the league’s highest-paid tight ends, ensuring his continued presence as a vital asset both on the team and within the community for at least another four years.
