Tucker Kraft Week 2 Outlook - Colts at Packers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

I have always been a proud card-carrying member of the Tucker Kraft hive. Despite this, it surprised me that Kraft was Green Bay's clear starter at tight end in Week 1. He had a 56.8% route run rate, an 8.6% target share, 1.76 YPRR, and a 4.2% first-read share. He entered the game banged up, which could also account for the route run rate not being higher. Kraft is a dart throw only, though, this week with Malik Willis under center. The entire passing attack is in question. This is a good matchup for Kraft, though, if Willis can somehow provide competent quarterback play. Last year, Indy allowed the 10th-most receiving yards and fantasy points to tight ends.
