The Green Bay Packers and their star tight end Tucker Kraft have reached a four-year, $75 million contract extension, making Kraft the highest-paid tight end in NFL history on a per-year basis. Despite missing half of the 2025 season due to a torn ACL, the Packers were confident in locking Kraft up for the long term. His 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns in 2024, had he not been injured, would have likely earned him a Pro Bowl or All-Pro selection.
