Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst shared that DE Micah Parsons and TE Tucker Kraft are recovering well and the team expects both players to be "back early in the season."
Huddle Up: Kraft being back sooner rather than later is good news for fantasy players. Though without a timeline, folks in redraft should proceed with caution and make him a target for later rounds as he remains to have TE1 upside if his touchdown production remains.

Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension with the Packers Friday, April 24, worth $50.25 million. The extension includes $20 million in guaranteed money.
Huddle Up: Reed was limited by injuries this past season but has been a reliable option in the passing game since joining the Packers. He should be one of the main targets in the passing game next season and can be a No. 3 or No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden made the most of his opportunities as a rookie, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst. "But when he did, he performed, and he performed at a high level," Gutekunst said. "I'm really excited to see where he goes in Year 2. I think his ceiling is very, very high."
Huddle Up: With Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs no longer in the picture, Golden should have every opportunity improve on his rookie numbers, especially if he can stay healthy. He will be worth a look as a high-upside WR4 in 2026.

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) is making good progress in his recovery from a torn anterior cruciate ligament, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see what Kraft will be able to do during training camp and if he will be ready for Week 1. He should be an important part of the offense when healthy and can be a No. 1 fantasy tight end.

Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden is believed to have a bigger target share in the team's offense in 2026.
Huddle Up: Golden had a hard time finding his footing in the Packers' deep wide receiver room in 2025. With 2026 being his second year in the league, and roster moves expected, he could see the larger target share that is being projected. Until the depth chart settles down, though, he remains a flex play or WR3 in deeper leagues at most.

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (thumb, arm) did not need postseason surgery for either the thumb injury he suffered in training camp, or the ailment to his non-throwing arm sustained during the season.
Huddle Up: Love posted 101.2 passer rating in 2025, while racking up a 3.8-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He also threw for 323 yards and four touchdowns in the wild-card game loss against the Chicago Bears. Love was a borderline low-end QB1 or top QB2 in most fantasy leagues in 2025, and if Jayden Reed, Christian Watson and Tucker Watson can all get healthy, and stay healthy, Love could be a sneaky good fantasy option in 2026.

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) and the team have already begun talks about a potential contract extension. Prior to suffering a torn ACL on Nov. 2, Kraft was leading the team with 32 receptions, 489 yards and six touchdowns across eight games. "Obviously, he's a really important part of this football team," general manager Brian Kutekunst said. "We've obviously been in contact with him and just let him know how we feel and we'll kind of see how it goes."
Huddle Up: Kraft emerged as a TE1 in most fantasy leagues with his big-time production in 2025. He is aiming to be ready for the start of the regular season, and he could have a fatter wallet, too.
Posted 2/07/2026 3:18 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Christian Watson said he wants to sign a long-term deal to remain with the team.
Huddle Up: Watson is under contract for next season, but it remains to be seen if the Packers will lock him up beyond 2026. Injuries have been an issue with Watson, but he has been a big-play weapon for the Packers when healthy. He doesn't pile up a lot of receptions, but Watson should be a high-upside WR3 in 2026.
Posted 1/13/2026 3:13 am GMT
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) said Monday, Jan. 12, that he is aiming to be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener, which would be 10 months removed from his torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Huddle Up: Kraft was a legit TE1 prior to his injury, putting up some huge fantasy stat lines while developing a nice rapport with Jordan Love. The Packers offense really missed Kraft down the stretch and into the playoffs. He'll come with some risk on draft day 2026 in fantasy leagues, so proceed with caution, and plan to have some depth at the position in the event he has a setback, or simply cannot be ready for Week 1.
Posted 1/12/2026 6:50 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) said he is ahead of schedule in his recovery from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation during the offseason to see if Kraft will be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season. He was a big part of the passing game before his injury and will be a No. 1 fantasy tight end once he returns to the lineup.
Posted 1/08/2026 8:55 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden (Achilles) practiced in full all week and is no longer listed on the injury report.
Huddle Up: Golden has had a slow rookie season, so he can be avoided in playoff pools this postseason. However, Golden can earn a better role in the 2026 season with a strong showing in the playoffs.
Posted 1/07/2026 2:11 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden (Achilles) practiced in full on Tuesday, Jan. 6.
Huddle Up: Golden hasn't been a big factor for the Packers offense this season. He has 29 catches for 361 yards with no touchdowns.
Posted 1/04/2026 10:53 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden ended up with an 8-yard reception on his only catch on three targets in Week 18 against the Minnesota Vikings.
Huddle Up: Golden is a tremendous long-term keeper option in fantasy leagues, as the upside is there, and he'll be a late-round pick in fantasy playoff leagues, with some value in DFS leagues as a low-cost option.
Posted 1/04/2026 5:49 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (concussion, shoulder) will serve as the team's No. 2 quarterback for Week 18's game against the Minnesota Vikings, as a result of QB Malik Willis (shoulder) being ruled out for the contest.
Huddle Up: Since the Packers are locked in to the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs, QB Clayton Tune will start the regular-season finale this afternoon but he is not a recommended option in any fantasy format. Love would only see game action today if Tune was seriously injured but will be a starting option in DFS and playoff leagues next week.
Posted 1/02/2026 8:42 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed (illness) practiced in full on Friday, Jan. 2, and no longer appears on the injury report.
Huddle Up: Reed has not looked himself since returning to the lineup from injury. Despite that, he can serve as a flex option in Week 18.
Posted 1/02/2026 8:38 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (knee, ankle) practiced in full on Friday, Jan. 2, and no longer appears on the injury report.
Huddle Up: Jacobs can be an RB1 in Week 18 against a Vikings' defense that has been strong in recent weeks.
Posted 1/02/2026 12:53 am GMT
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (concussion, shoulder) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Love has cleared the concussion protocol but will not play in the Week 18 game since the team is not able to improve their playoff seeding. Clayton Tune will start but can be avoided in leagues.
Posted 1/01/2026 5:37 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol, but QB Clayton Tune will start in Week 18 against the Minnesota Vikings.
Huddle Up: The Vikings are the worst matchup in the league in terms of fantasy points allowed to the position the last five weeks. Tune would only be a desperation option in a superflex or two-QB league that your starter is sitting in.
Posted 1/01/2026 1:40 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed (illness) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 31.
Huddle Up: Reed has been a steady weapon in the passing game since returning from injury, and while he will likely be over the illness by the weekend, the Packers may still decide to rest Reed or at least limit his snaps. Green Bay is already locked into the No. 7 seed in the playoffs.
Posted 1/01/2026 1:37 am GMT
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (knee, ankle) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 31.
Huddle Up: Jacobs is coming off a quiet Week 17, and after battling injuries down the stretch of the season, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the Packers rest him in the finale.
Posted 12/31/2025 5:35 pm GMT
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (concussion) remains in the protocol, but he'll practice Wednesday, Dec. 31.
Huddle Up: That's a good sign for his Week 18 status. He'd be a midrange QB1 against the Minnesota Vikings.
Posted 12/28/2025 5:01 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden caught one of his three targets for 12 yards in a 41-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17.
Huddle Up: The rookie continues to struggle to find a role in the offense, and with Jayden Reed back in the mix, it doesn't seem like Golden is going to make a meaningful contribution the rest of the way. At this point, he is only an asset in dynasty formats.
Posted 12/28/2025 4:55 am GMT
Green Bay Packers TE Luke Musgrave was not targeted in a 41-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17.
Huddle Up: Musgrave's production had been trending up the last couple of weeks, but Malik Willis pushed the ball down the field to the wide receivers, leaving Musgrave to have a quiet night. Given how the Baltimore game played out, Musgrave will be tough to trust in any capacity in the season finale if Jordan Love isn't back under center.
Posted 12/28/2025 4:51 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed caught four passes for 41 yards in a 41-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17.
Huddle Up: Reed hasn't made many big plays since returning from injury, but he has had a steady role in the offense. He has caught at least three passes in all four games since his return, catching 16 passes on 17 targets. Reed's production isn't spectacular, but he can be a WR4 in deeper formats.
Posted 12/28/2025 4:44 am GMT
Green Bay Packers WR Christian Watson caught five of six targets for 113 yards and a touchdown in a 41-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17.
Huddle Up: Watson bounced back from a couple of rough outings and was showing excellent chemistry with Malik Willis before the latter left with a shoulder injury. Assuming Jordan Love or Willis is under center in the regular season finale, Watson has WR2 potential.
Posted 12/28/2025 4:34 am GMT
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs rushed four times for three yards and didn't gain a yard on his lone reception in a 41-24 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17.
Huddle Up: Normally a centerpiece of the Green Bay offense, Jacobs was barely involved as Malik Willis was able to move the ball with his arm and his legs before exiting. Jacobs has been dealing with a knee issue, but the lack of usage seemed to be more based on how the game developed than an injury issue. Regardless, Jacobs picked a brutal week to provide almost no production for fantasy owners.
