Packers fans lose it over Tucker Kraft's way-out-of-line trash talk: "The new George Kittle except he's a f**king lunatic"

Tucker Kraft recently appeared on Aaron Jones' 'Toonen to Dillon' podcast. When asked if he was a trash talker during the game, Kraft responded that if an opponent talks to him during the game, he screams at them and tells them that he is going to 'burn their childhood home down'.

The Packers tight end's comments went viral on social media and received various kinds of responses. Some people took issue with what he said on the podcast.

Here's how they reacted:

"The TE factory is operating at full force with perhaps our greatest export yet. The new George Kittle except this time he’s a f**king lunatic", said one fan

"Wow maybe the packers really do have the next Gronk and Hernandez in their TEs", added another fan

Some Packers fans loved Kraft's response. Here's how they reacted:

"That's my tight end. he might be a little crazy but that's my tight end", said one fan on X

"He’s a psychopath, but he’s our psychopath and we love him", added another

As is customary on social media, people had differing opinions about Kraft's comments. If this technique consistently allows him to outperform his opponents, few fans will object to it in the long run.

The Packers selected Kraft with the 78th overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, and he emerged as a key player for the team. Alongside Luke Musgrave, Kraft forms one of the most exciting young tight-end duos in the league.

In four games this season, Tucker Kraft has 16 receptions for 218 yards and three touchdowns on 22 targets. Kraft scored two touchdowns in the Packers' 24-19 win against the LA Rams.

He's on track to significantly surpass his previous season's total of 31 receptions for 355 yards and two touchdowns on 40 targets in 17 games. With Jordan Love back to full health, the Packers offense will improve as the season progresses, and Kraft might have an exceptional season for the team.

The Packers have a lot of talented young players on offense. They all make the quarterback's job easier and contribute significantly. Green Bay is 3-2 heading into Week 6, where they will face the Arizona Cardinals at home.
