Green Bay Packers: Tucker Kraft Shares Incredible Helmet Photo With First Child

Originally posted on WI Sports Heroics | By Robin M Adams | Last updated Jul 10, 2025 3:16 AM ET

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has gone through two seasons in the NFL, and to many, it feels like he’s on the verge of breaking out in the 2025 NFL season.

Kraft has gradually improved in his time in the pros. He had 355 receiving yards and two touchdowns in his rookie campaign in 2023. The following season, he nearly doubled his receiving yards with 707 while coming away with seven touchdowns on 50 receptions and 70 targets.

Given what he’s shown on the field for the Packers in the last two seasons, Kraft can expect a bigger role in Green Bay’s passing attack, and that’s despite the Packers adding some new weapons in the wide receiver room in the offseason.

Moreover, Kraft has a new inspiration, as he and his wife, Baylee, welcomed their first child, Charlotte Claire, on July 2.

On Wednesday, Kraft shared an adorable photo showing him with Charlotte, who’s sleeping on a Packers helmet. The photo is in black and white, but it clearly paints the happiness and the high emotions Kraft must be feeling about being a dad.

With his family behind him, Kraft will look to have a bigger 2025 season with the Packers, who are counting on him to contribute to their offense that averaged 222.1 passing yards and 26.1 points per game in 2024.

Kraft, who played college football for the South Dakota State Jackrabbits, was selected by the Packers in the third round of the 2023 NFL draft.
