Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was able to ride a bike to the practice field — and to practice on it — on Friday, his first work since suffering a torn ACL on November 2. With the primary goal having him ready to go for Week 1, Kraft could be back in the mix when the Packers engage in a joint practice with the Cardinals on August 26. Coach Matt LaFleur said it's a realistic target.

Kraft cleared for practice after torn ACL; Week 1 return realistic per LaFleur.

Packers tight end Tucker Kraft suffered a torn ACL on November 2, 2025, and returned to practice on Friday by riding a bike to the practice field and participating in practice. Coach Matt LaFleur stated the primary goal is having him ready for Week 1, and said it's a realistic target that Kraft could participate in the joint practice with the Cardinals on August 26, provided he hits all benchmarks along the way. LaFleur praised Kraft's handling of the recovery process, saying 'I think we're obviously taking it slow with him because he's such an important player to us. But, yeah, I think he handled everything great.' Kraft is in the final year of his rookie deal at $3.6 million in 2026.
