Sunday was a bad day for the Green Bay Packers. Along with being upset by the visiting Carolina Panthers, the Packers saw talented tight end Tucker Kraft go down with a significant knee injury. Tests have since confirmed the team’s initial fears that Kraft suffered a torn ACL, according to ESPN.

Kraft was carted into the locker room after getting hit on a running play during the third quarter. Shortly afterward, he was declared out for the remainder of the game with a knee injury. Packers coach Matt LaFleur told reporters after the game that Kraft’s injury “did not look good.”

A third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Kraft caught two of his three targets for 20 yards on Sunday night prior to getting injured. He entered the game with four touchdown catches in Green Bay’s last three games, emerging as one of the most impressive tight ends this season.
