Packers' Tucker Kraft 'hoping' to get a record-setting $20 million extension

The Green Bay Packers are in discussions with tight end Tucker Kraft about a significant contract extension, with the hope of securing a record-setting $20 million deal, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. This offseason, the Packers let go of two key receivers, Dontayvion Wicks to the Philadelphia Eagles and Romeo Doubs to the New England Patriots.

However, Kraft and the Packers remain optimistic about reaching an agreement, despite current negotiations being at odds. The Packers hope to finalize the deal by the end of Week 1. Kraft, who returned from a torn ACL injury last season, had a strong performance in 2023, catching 32 of 44 targets for 489 yards and six touchdowns.
