Green Bay Packers sign tight end Tucker Kraft to four-year contract extension

The Green Bay Packers signed tight end Tucker Kraft to a four-year extension worth up to $92 million. The contract includes $26.5 million in guaranteed money structured as a signing bonus and carries an average annual value of $23 million at its maximum. Kraft, 26, is entering his third NFL season following a 2025 campaign that ended early due to an ACL injury. Prior to the injury, he recorded 32 receptions and six touchdowns in eight appearances. The deal ensures the Packers retain the former South Dakota State standout through the end of his career cycle before he reaches free agency. This commitment provides quarterback Jordan Love with a reliable target as the organization shifts focus toward heavier personnel packages. Kraft remains the highest-paid player at his position based on the maximum potential earnings outlined in the new agreement.
