Kraft seeking $20M+ extension to reset tight end market; Packers targeting Week 1 deal.

Tucker Kraft is in active extension discussions with the Green Bay Packers and seeking to reset the tight end market above the $20 million per year threshold, which would make him the highest-paid tight end in the league despite coming off an ACL tear. The Packers hope to finalize a deal by the end of Week 1, though negotiations have been a standoff so far. Kraft's camp is targeting a deal in line with or exceeding George Kittle ($19.1M) and Trey McBride ($19M), positioning him to become the position's first $20M+ earner.
