2026 Fantasy Outlook
Kraft was enjoying a third-year breakout prior to tearing his ACL in Week 9 last year, catching 30 of 41 targets for 469 yards and six touchdowns in seven games, with Kittle-esque antics in the open field (10.7 YAC average) resulting in an eye-popping 15.3 yards per catch. Kraft is optimistic he’ll be ready by Week 1, but it will likely take longer than that for the 25-year-old to regain his pre-injury form. Green Bay is largely returning the same personnel on offense, minus 2025 target leader Romeo Doubs and depth receiver Dontayvion Wicks, thus leaving WRs Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden as the main competition for targets from QB Jordan Love. Fellow 2023 Day 2 draft pick Luke Musgrave now seems like a non-factor for Kraft's fantasy outlook, with Musgrave no longer even assured of starting when his talented teammate is unavailable. The Packers hope Kraft will be ready for Week 1, but their medical staff has a long-running reputation for caution and has seen good results in recent years (namely Christian Watson) with less aggressive rehab timelines.

Signed a four-year, $72 million contract extension with the Packers in September of 2026. Deal is worth up to $92 million with a $26.5 million signing bonus.Kraft brought in six of seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed once for three yards.
ANALYSIS
Kraft set the pace for the Packers in receptions and tied with Matthew Golden for the team lead in targets on the afternoon while also finishing as the runner-up in receiving yards for Green Bay. The talented tight end also notched his first touchdown of the season with a two-yard catch early in the second half that was originally ruled out of bounds before being overturned on replay. Kraft has made a remarkable recovery from last year's season-ending knee injury, producing a 15-148-1 line over his first four games heading into a Week 5 home matchup against the Bears next Sunday.

2023
After splitting snaps with fellow 2023 Day 2 pick Luke Musgrave as a rookie, Kraft started every game for the Packers in 2024 and played at least 79 percent of snaps in all but two of those. He broke out for 50 catches, 707 yards and seven touchdowns on 70 targets, while Musgrave missed 10 games with an ankle injury and drew just 10 targets in seven regular-season appearances. Kraft's most impressive trait was his elusiveness after the catch, with a 9.6 YAC average leading all qualified tight ends, well ahead of second-place George Kittle’s 7.3. Even with the assumption of some regression to his YAC numbers, Kraft has established himself as a key piece of a Packers passing game that figures to spread the ball around again in 2025 after having four players (Dontayvion Wicks, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs and Kraft) finish between 70 and 76 targets last season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might get extension before Week 1
Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said Tuesday that the team was "working towards" a contract extension with Kraft, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year tight end was headed for a breakout 2025 season before suffering a torn ACL in Week 9, finishing the year with a 32-489-6 line on 44 targets over eight games. Kraft is in the final stages of his recovery from the injury and looks like he'll be ready to go for the season opener against the Vikings, and he might have an extension in his back pocket by then as well.
