Luke Musgrave

Musgrave was barely involved as the Packers' wide receivers stole the show against the Lions. Packers QB Jordan Love did give him one opportunity, flinging a play-action pass his way on the fourth drive. Musgrave dove and successfully secured the pass, bringing the ball down to the Lions' 11-yard line.

Packers TE Luke Musgrave seemed poised for an at least decent offensive role after Tucker Kraft's ACL tear. Musgrave caught three passes in the game Kraft left -- the Week 9 loss to Carolina -- and another three in the loss to Philadelphia. That contest also found him playing a season-high 76.5% of the offensive snaps. But Musgrave has declined to snap shares of just 34.5% and 37.9% the past two weeks. Sunday's win over the Vikings also marked the second straight game in which Musgrave ranked third among TEs in playing time.

Since taking over for Tucker Kraft in Week 10 as the full-time starter at Packers tight end, Musgrave has 29 yards on seven targets. You can do better.

Musgrave's "missed connection" frankly probably should have been a lost fumble, but the review command center predictably decided he didn't "complete the process." Stuck on four catches for 22 yards over the past two weeks, Musgrave so far isn't stepping up during Tucker Kraft's absence. With tight end deep if not necessarily productive this year, Musgrave isn't really forcing his way into the top 24. That includes for Week 12 against the Vikings.
