Green Bay Packers kehilangan dua pemain kunci akibat cedera pada musim lalu, yang berpotensi mengubah jalannya musim 2025. Tight end Tucker Kraft mengalami cedera ACL pada November, mengakhiri musim perdananya yang menjanjikan. Sementara itu, linebacker Micah Parsons juga cedera ACL pada Desember, memotong musim pertamanya yang impresif bersama Packers.
Namun, keduanya diprediksi akan kembali bermain di sebagian besar musim 2026, menurut pernyataan Brian Gutekunst, Manajer Umum Packers, dalam wawancara terbaru dengan SiriusXM NFL Radio.
“Mereka dalam kondisi yang sangat baik,” ujar Gutekunst. “Tuck sudah latihan setiap hari dan sedikit lebih cepat pulih karena cedera yang dialaminya lebih awal dibanding Micah. Tapi Micah memang luar biasa, dia seperti atlet super. Saat ini, dia juga sudah pulih dengan sangat baik.”
Lebih lanjut, Gutekunst menegaskan, “Kami sangat berharap keduanya bisa kembali di awal musim nanti. Mereka akan menjadi bagian penting dalam rencana kami ke depan.”
Pada musim lalu, Kraft bermain delapan pertandingan dan mencatat 32 tangkapan untuk 489 yard serta enam touchdown. Sementara Parsons, meski hanya bermain 14 pertandingan, berhasil meraih 12,5 sack, 12 tackle untuk kehilangan yard, dan 27 tekanan ke quarterback, serta dinobatkan sebagai AP First-Team All-Pro untuk ketiga kalinya.
