Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been very vocal about what this team needs this offseason, even if it has rubbed some people the wrong way. Jacobs was probably the most important offensive player on the roster last season besides quarterback Jordan Love.

Green Bay Packers Running Back Josh Jacobs Makes Interesting Comparison About Tucker Kraft

One player on the Packers roster who blossomed in his second NFL season was tight end Tucker Kraft. Entering the 2024 season, there was a debate about who would be the number one tight end between Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft.

Well, Kraft separated himself from Musgrave when Luke Musgrave injured himself in Week 5 and the former South Dakota State Jackrabbits tight end took his game to another level. Josh Jacobs went onto Barstool Gruden to talk about Tucker Kraft. Jacobs said:

” tell him all the time, you have the potential to be top-2 in this league right now—— He reminds me so much of Kittle.”

This is an interesting comment from Jacobs. It is possible that Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs could be retiring before the start of next season. If Kelce retires, some will think that Sam LaPorta of the Detroit Lions or Brock Bowers of the Las Vegas Raiders will be the best tight end in the league.

Tucker Kraft last season caught 50 passes for 707 yards receiving and seven touchdowns, along with averaging 14.1 yards per catch. He was also targeted 70 times. Kraft will need to be one of the top targets in the Green Bay Packers offense next season.
