The Green Bay Packers will visit the Detroit Lions in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Luke Musgrave.
Is Luke Musgrave Playing in Week 13?
Musgrave is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.

Should You Start or Sit Musgrave in Week 13?
As it turns out, Tucker Kraft might just be #good.
At the running back position, a backup can step in for an injured starter and often return 80-90% of the value if given the opportunity. It rarely works that way at the receiver position, and at tight end, it has been all over the place historically.
For every Isaiah Likely that seems poised to take a leap when Mark Andrews sits, there’s a Brock Wright that isn’t used the way that Sam LaPorta is.
I think we are seeing that the latter is more descriptive of the situation in Green Bay than the former.
Musgrave has been held to just 19 routes over the past two weeks, and while I’d usually tell you that earning four targets in those games is a great sign, the fact that he’s turned them into just six yards is what has me trending far away from this situation.
He did force a 24-yard DPI penalty on the first drive last week, so all is not lost, but for those hoping Musgrave would walk into a viable role every week, that dream is gone, and with Jayden Reed trending in a positive direction, things might get worse before they get better.
