Six receptions for Tucker Kraft in prime time

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft had six catches, 53 yards, and a touchdown against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8.

Why It Matters: It has taken some time for Kraft to resemble the breakout star he was becoming before tearing his ACL almost a year ago to the day. He seems to be rounding into form, however, catching 10 passes for 101 yards and a pair of touchdowns over the past five days. Kraft has simply looked stronger, and there have been no signs of the dropped passes that dogged him earlier this season. While he hasn’t entered that top echelon of fantasy tight ends with the likes of Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, Kraft has solidified his spot as a top-10 option at the position.
