Tight end Tucker Kraft has revealed having suffered a nasty injury while working out that might turn your stomach just reading about it.
The TE, heading into his second year in the pros, told Sports Illustrated he was bench pressing when he tore his pectoral muscle, claiming it “popped right off the bone.”
“Just a regular lift,” he explained. “It was my last rep of the day on bench. Nothing crazy, not heavy weight. We were speed-benching and it just popped right off the bone.”
It’s uncertain as to when he will be able to return to playing, but such injuries typically take a few months to heal. Depending on his treatment, Kraft could be ready to play for the Packers by the beginning of next season and will have his fingers crossed.
“I’m just ready to take off in this league and establish myself as a football player, really. That’s where my frustration lies,” he said.

Tucker Kraft Had A Solid Rookie Season With The Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers drafted Tucker Kraft in the third round last year following a standout career at South Dakota State.
He had a solid rookie season, hauling 31 catches for 355 yards and two touchdowns.
Following their exploits in the playoffs, the Packers are considered contenders and could use a player like Kraft to further their ambitions. He has proven he can be depended upon in key moments.
They will hope to have him back by the time the season starts.
Prince Harry and Meghan was left "in tears" and "furious" after he was evicted from Frogmore Cottage, with the Duke of Sussex feeling his father King Charles was being "vindictive"

Prince Harry was left "absolutely furious and in tears" following the eviction from Frogmore Cottage, a Royal expert has claimed, shedding light on the Sussexes' distressing experience.
Over a year ago, in March 2023, after Prince Harry's explosive memoir 'Spare' was published, it emerged that King Charles had requested his son and daughter-in-law Meghan Markle to leave Frogmore Cottage. This reportedly incensed Harry.
A source informed The Standard at that time: "The Sussexes are no longer leasing Frogmore Cottage. That privilege has been removed."
Additionally, the source mentioned: "It's over for them in the UK. If they want a residence in the UK they will have to buy one privately," reports the Mirror.
Subsequently, in June 2023, Meghan and Harry returned the keys to Frogmore Cottage, with their belongings being transported to California.

Royal commentator and writer Tom Quinn told the Mirror: "Harry was absolutely furious and in tears about being evicted from Frogmore he felt his father had no right to do it and that it was purely vindictive."
Quinn further explained that Harry failed to understand how stepping down as a working Royal would naturally lead to losing his Royal home, interpreting the move as a "cruel rejection" by his father, King Charles III.
Mr Quinn revealed: "Harry took it as a cruel rejection a painful reminder of all that he felt when his father fought with his mother during their long drawn out, painful divorce.

"Whenever Charles puts his foot down, it seems unfair to Harry who feels that after everything that has happened to him, he should always get whatever he wants whether that be security paid for by the British taxpayer or a luxurious UK home."
He summarised his insights stating: "For many Harry is just a poor little rich kid behaving like a spoiled brat, but Harry sees himself as the eternal victim."
Thomas Markle has been estranged from his youngest daughter Meghan Markle since shortly after her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018.

Thomas Markle is likely "very sad" to be missing out on yet another special family occasion because of his strained relationship with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, a royal expert claimed.
The former television lighting director has been effectively estranged from his youngest daughter since after her wedding to Harry in 2018.
He was due to fly to the UK to walk her down the aisle, but news of an agreement with the paparazzi paired with a heart attack days before the ceremony prevented him from attending.
Markle is not believed to have seen the Duchess of Sussex since – and he has repeatedly complained about never meeting his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
With Lilibet's birthday looming, royal expert Phil Dampier spoke of the distress Mr Markle shares with King Charles as he misses out on yet another special occasion.

Speaking to The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Mr Dampier said: "It is amazing that she's already three but there is this underlying sadness of course because of the rift that the King is not seeing his grandchildren.
“I think he's only met Lilibet possibly once and Archie only a couple of times and they are seventh and eighth in line to the throne, growing up in California on the West Coast of America with American accents and they just don't see them.”
During her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, the Duchess claimed her father had lied to her about speaking to the British press in what she dubbed a "betrayal" she couldn't "reconcile."
Mr Dampier added: "So that is the underlying sadness and whether they're going to one day heal this rift, we don't know, but at the moment I don't think there's much prospect.”
The royal expert also argued Harry and Meghan face the prospect of intense questioning from Lilibet and Archie when they are older on the lack of contact with both families.
He said: "When they get a bit older, are they going to start asking questions ‘How have we got to this situation’, ‘How is it I don't see my grandparents’, ‘How is it I don't have anything to do with the Royal Family?’
“When they get old, that's probably when the problem is going to start and it's going to be difficult for them.”
Lilibet, who will be turning three on June 4, is believed to have met the King in person only once when her parents brought her and Archie to the UK to celebrate the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022.
While Archie was born in the UK and met his grandfather on multiple occasions, he was barely six months old when he moved to North America with his parents.
