Yahoo Sports NFL on Tucker Kraft

ArticlePackers 2025 Callsheet: Low Red ZoneJuly 25, 2026

From the article

In these formations, you'd see Tucker Kraft as the inside man. On run plays, that puts the strongest blocking TE closer to the formation, but it makes him more difficult to cover on pass plays.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Kraft's dual-threat role in YY Wing formation creates coverage mismatches.

Kraft operates as the inside man in the Packers' 12 personnel YY Wing formation (1 RB, 2 TE, 2 WR with both TEs tight to the line on the same side), positioning him as the strongest blocking TE closer to the formation on run plays while making him more difficult to cover on pass plays in the low red zone.
