Packers' Luke Musgrave: Working with first-team offense
Musgrave has been getting reps with the first-team offense at OTAs this week, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
After letting Robert Tonyan walk in free agency, the Packers didn't sign any veteran tight ends but used second- and third-round picks on Musgrave and Tucker Kraft, respectively. Playing time at tight end thus appears to be up for grabs, with fourth-year player Josiah Deguara also in the mix for reps. As for Musgrave, head coach Matt LaFleur has praised the rookie for the speed and size (6-foot-6, 253 pounds) he brings to the table, and he likely profiles as the top receiving threat among the three tight ends competing for the top spot on the depth chart.

Packers' Luke Musgrave: Reeled in to Green Bay
The Packers selected Musgrave in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 42nd overall.
Musgrave (6-foot-6, 253 pounds) has prototypical size for a starting tight end and boasts plus athleticism on that frame, logging a 4.61-second 40-yard dash and 125-inch broad jump out of Oregon State. Musgrave's athletic testing and frame make him a credible seam threat, especially on play-action calls. The question with Musgrave is to what degree his skill set can develop -- a player as athletic as him should have caught more passes at Oregon State, but Musgrave finished his college career with just 47 receptions in 20 games over four years. However, given the state of the position for the Packers, he seemingly still stands a good chance of emerging as Green Bay's starting tight end in the near future.
