Packers place Luke Musgrave on reserve list but anticipate his return

The Green Bay Packers placed tight end Luke Musgrave on the reserve/physically unable to perform list to open the regular season. General Manager Brian Gutekunst confirmed that the team remains optimistic regarding the second-year player's recovery from a neck injury sustained during a June minicamp. Musgrave did not participate in any training camp sessions or preseason contests as he managed the ailment. While the injury sidelined the former second-round draft pick for the initial portion of the schedule, team officials expect him to return to the active roster before the season concludes. The organization is now overseeing his rehabilitation to ensure he reaches game fitness. Last season, Musgrave appeared in all 17 games for the Packers, contributing to 41 percent of the offensive snaps.
