2025 winners and losers of week 2 of the NFL

Score: Packers 27, commanders 18

Winner: Te Tucker Kraft, Green Bay Packers

Kraft never achieved more than 88 reception yards during his first two seasons with the Packers. In week 2, the Third Round Draft selection of 2023 registered a personal record with 124 reception yards.

The importance of the closed wing should only grow to the offensive of the Packers since Jayden Reed, who was already dealing with a foot injury, left Thursday’s contest with a beaten shoulder.

Kraft prospered controlling seams, including a 57 yards reception That configured the first playdown of the game. In the fourth quarter, the objective of 6’5 “253 pounds provided Green Bay’s Final TouchDown of the night. It ended with a maximum of 124 yards, which is the highest total for a closed wing of the Packers since the 2015 campaign.

Loser: OT Josh Conerly Jr., Washington commanders

Some can describe the performance of Thursday of Conerly as their moment “Welcome to the NFL”, but already experienced last weekend against New York giants. On the other hand, the 29th selection of this year’s general draft endured a baptism by fire when facing the hutter dynamics of the Packers, Micah Parsons and Rashan Gary.

Conerly has not had time to develop any type of comfort on the right side after being a university left Tackle. The commanders tried to provide the 21 -year -old blocker help and runners during Thursday’s contest, but the effort was unsuccessful. Parsons and Gary regularly beat the rookie and provided pressure against Campo Mariscal Jayden Daniels. If it weren’t for a fast attack, the situation could have been much worse.
