Packers' Luke Musgrave Hospitalized with 'Pretty Significant' Abdomen Injury, HC Says

Green Bay Packers rookie tight end Luke Musgrave suffered a "pretty significant" abdomen injury that led to him being admitted to the hospital.

Numerous Packers beat reporters relayed the news from Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur, who noted the injury occurred during the Pack's 23-20 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Musgrave reported the injury one day later.

Per Eric Boynton of WBAY-TV 2, FOX cameras showed Musgrave grabbing his side after falling hard following a diving third-quarter catch. He finished with four receptions for 28 yards.

The Packers play the Detroit Lions on Thursday at 12:30 p.m. ET. Green Bay is not conducting practices this week leading into the game, so practice reports are an estimation of a player's participation level. However, Musgrave was listed as a DNP (did not practice) Tuesday.

Hopefully Musgrave is able to return to full health soon. He's obviously made a good impression during his rookie year after the Packers selected him No. 42 overall in the draft out of Oregon State. For the season, he's caught 33 passes for 341 yards and one score.

In the meantime, the Packers must figure out a new plan at tight end. With second-stringer Josiah Deguara (hip) also a DNP, the only remaining active tight ends on the roster are Tucker Kraft and Ben Sims, per Zack Kruse of Packers Wire. At this point, it would seem like that duo will be leading the way at the position versus Detroit.
