The Green Bay Packers remain in playoff contention with a 10-4 record and third place in the NFC North, three wins behind the 13-2 Minnesota Vikings. NFL Monday Night Football against the New Orleans Saints will be a tough test for quarterback Jordan Love‘s team.

The Packers lost to the Detroit Lions last week and put their NFL future in jeopardy, but they are confident in Love’s ability to come through and beat one of the worst teams in the league. There is good news in Green Bay, and that is that a key player is back with the team.

The key weapon the Packers will get back for Love is tight end Luke Musgrave, who was activated from injured reserve and will play tonight against the Saints, NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported on his X (formerly Twitter) account.

Musgrave has made a remarkable tune-up considering the extent of his injury, as he had ankle surgery in October and has not played since Week 4, when he appeared in the Packers’ loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Musgrove’s return to the Packers

Musgrave had catch just five passes for 22 yards while taking the field with the Packers this season. He participated in 17 plays in Week 1, 31 plays in Week 2, 35 plays in Week 3 and 25 plays in Week 4. Currently, knowing that the team has had a long road without him on the field, Green Bay confirmed that they will fit Musgrave into the lineup.
