Packers Unsung Heroes: Luke Musgrave

Everyone recognizes Luke Musgrave for his athleticism and pass-catching potential (he has 18 receptions for 159 yards this season). I mean, he’s a 6-foot-6, 253-pound stud who runs like a wide receiver. It’s hard not to miss him.

However, his blocking has flown under the radar, so I included him on this list. He’s been much better at blocking than expected, especially for a rookie tight end. Don’t get me wrong, he still has room to grow in this area, but he’s off to a nice start and has given himself a solid foundation to build upon.
