The highest-drafted tight end in Oregon State history, still searching for his breakout season after injuries have limited his role in Green Bay.
Luke Musgrave arrived in Green Bay as a second-round pick with rare size and athleticism for the tight end position. Injuries, first to himself and then to fellow tight end Tucker Kraft, have shaped an up-and-down start to his career that has yet to produce the featured role many expected.
Path to the league
A Bend, Oregon native, Musgrave played four seasons at Oregon State, catching 47 passes for 633 yards and two touchdowns across 34 games, though a season-ending knee injury limited him to just two games in 2022. The Packers selected him with the 42nd overall pick in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, making him the highest-drafted tight end in program history.
Career highlights
As a rookie in 2023, Musgrave tied the franchise rookie record for receptions by a tight end with 34, despite missing six games due to injury. An ankle injury limited him to just seven games in 2024, producing seven catches for 45 yards.
2025 season recap
Musgrave played all 17 games in 2025, finishing with 24 catches for 252 yards on 31 targets and no touchdowns, topping 50 receiving yards in only one contest. His workload increased late in the year after Tucker Kraft tore his ACL, but the production did not follow, leaving Musgrave's role in Green Bay's offense unsettled.
