Packers 53-Man Roster Projection Entering Final Preseason Game
Tight End (3): Luke Musgrave, Josiah Deguara, Tucker Kraft
Cut: Austin Allen, Henry Pearson
IR: Tyler Davis
The Tyler Davis season-ending injury really messed with this position group, and I’m surprised they didn’t bring in another player at the position.
Luke Musgrave has been amazing and could have a long career in the NFL ahead of him. He’s a monster with elite size and speed, creating mismatches everywhere he lines up. Kraft isn’t as ready as Musgrave, but has had flashes of brilliance. Deguara has made strides in his blocking and will be used more like a fullback than a tight end.
That brings us to Austin Allen. I don’t want to believe Green Bay will give him a roster spot because he’s the only other tight end on the team. They could do a lot better and might add someone after cutdown day.
