Packers’ Tucker Kraft reveals his favorite NFL trash talk line, and it’s wild
Football players are not well-adjusted human beings
NFL trash talk can take on so many different forms. Players will jaw back and forth at each other in friendly competition, and it makes the game a bit more intense. But sometimes they cross the line.
Green Bay Packers’ tight end Tucker Kraft might have done just that.
While on teammate AJ Dillon’s podcast Toonen to Dillon, Kraft talked about how he throws off opposing players’ trash talk, and his strategy is a bit on the wild side.

...EXCUSE ME?
That man is a legitimate psychopath, because responding to trash talk by saying you’re going to burn down my childhood home is insane. We just playing a game, big homie, it don’t gotta get to that point. How do you even respond to that? There’s nothing you can say in that situation that would be ok. You just gotta try and match his insanity, but he’s a tight end who played for South Dakota State he might be Captain Crashout.
However, psychopath tight ends might be the way to go in a successful offense. Kraft has really emerged in his second season, leading all tight ends in Yards After the Catch.
Which is expected, because I wouldn’t want to tackle that guy anyway. He might try and light my house on fire.
