The Green Bay Packers will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding TE Tucker Kraft.
Is Tucker Kraft Playing in Week 8?
Kraft is not listed on the injury report this week, so barring any setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.
We’ll continue to monitor the Packers’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Tucker Kraft in Week 8?
They say that we don’t know if a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if no one is around to hear it. The fantasy equivalent is as follows:
“If a tight end fails to pick up yardage but manages to score, does anyone notice?”
The answer is no. Kraft has now scored four times in four games and is firmly on the low-end TE1 radar as a result — not bad for a player who has yet to reach 40 air yards in a single game. His touchdown on Sunday was the result of his first end-zone target this season.
While the sheer number of viable pass catchers in Green Bay these days makes a reasonable target or yardage share difficult to project, this offense (sixth-most red-zone trips per game since the start of 2023) threatens paydirt enough to justify going in this direction.
Kraft is my TE8 for this week and will find himself in that 8-12 range more often than not — he’s part of the “I’ll play him every week and take my chances” tier that now includes David Njoku, Cole Kmet, Dalton Kincaid, and the emerging Hunter Henry.

Green Bay Packers at Jacksonville Jaguars Insights
Green Bay Packers
Team: The Packers have won three straight games and are seeking their first four-game win streak since December 2022.
QB: Jordan Love has thrown multiple TD in eight straight games. That’s the fourth-longest streak by a QB age 25 or younger, behind Patrick Mahomes (14), Brett Favre (12), and Dan Marino (10).
Offense: The Packers are explosive, but since 2022, they have ranked 23rd in red zone offense (54.2% this season, ranking 18th behind the Panthers, Titans, and Jets).
Defense: Green Bay is allowing the fourth-lowest third-down completion percentage (46.7%) and has yet to allow a third-down touchdown pass.
Fantasy: Josh Jacobs caught the first touchdown of his career on Sunday and now has at least four catches or 18 carries in all four games since Jordan Love returned.
Betting: The Packers beat the Rams 24-19 (closing total: 49.5) in Week 5, snapping a streak of six straight overs in Jordan Love road starts.
Jacksonville Jaguars
Team: This team returns from London to begin, without much question, their most difficult four-game straight of the season (vs. Packers, at Eagles, vs. Vikings, and at Lions).
QB: Trevor Lawrence has posted three straight passer ratings north of 90 on the heels of three straight under 90 (Jacksonville is 2-1 after an 0-4 start).
Offense: By EPA per game, this is the worst offense in the league (7.6% worse than the Panthers).
Defense: The Jaguars own the league’s worst red zone defense, allowing a touchdown on 78.3% of such drives.
Fantasy: Tank Bigsby has multiple rushing scores in two of his past three and at least 90 rushing yards in three of four. His role is trending toward that of a bellcow (Travis Etienne – hamstring), but with just one catch against his 67 carries this season is a ceiling capper.
Betting: In their three games before the London trip last season, the Jags were 1-2 ATS (average cover margin: -8.5 points). In their first three games back in the States, they went 3-0 ATS (average cover margin: +10.0 points).
