Adam Stenavich, Green Bay's offensive coordinator, when asked this week about Kraft and his role in the offense said: "Anytime we can get Tuck the ball is great for our offense. Obviously, he's one of our top playmakers"... With Matthew Golden dealing with foot and shoulder issues, the Packers are going to need someone to step up.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Kraft positioned as red zone beneficiary with Golden injured; source backs anytime TD prop.

Kraft has been a solid contributor through six games with 29 receptions on 43 targets for 297 yards and two touchdowns. Last week against Detroit, he recorded four catches for 48 yards and a score, finishing fourth in targets (six) when Love threw 45 times. Green Bay offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said "Anytime we can get Tuck the ball is great for our offense. Obviously, he's one of our top playmakers" and indicated target volume should be "around 10-ish." With Matthew Golden dealing with foot and shoulder issues, the source projects Kraft will be the beneficiary in the passing game, particularly in the red zone, and backs him to score for the second consecutive week at +170 (FanDuel).
