GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) and tackle Zach Tom (oblique) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns.

Green Bay ruled out receiver Jayden Reed (shoulder/foot).

Kraft didn't practice on Friday after injuring his knee injury Thursday. Head Coach Matt LaFleur said the team doesn't believe it's a long-term injury, though Kraft's availability for Sunday remains uncertain.

"It's unfortunate. It is what it is," said LaFleur before Friday's practice. "I don't think it'll be long term. So, that's a positive. But he will not be out there today."

If Kraft can't go, his 2023 draft classmate Luke Musgrave likely will see a lion's share of Kraft's reps. The former second-round pick, who's battled injuries during first two seasons, has three catches for 36 yards this season.

"We all know the type of player that he is capable of being," LaFleur said. "It's just the availability has been in the past kind of derailed his progress. Whether Tuck can go or not, that'll be more opps for Luke and he's a guy that we obviously think very, very highly of and are confident that he can go out there and do a great job for us."

Tom missed his first game in two years against Washington due to the oblique injury he sustained in the opener against Detroit. He returned to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity.

"It's kind of hard to run. That's the main thing," Tom said. "I feel like moving side to side I'm good, but anything that involves me trying to get out and open up, that's kind of like where I can feel it a little bit. We've just got to work through it."

The Packers will have left guard Aaron Banks (groin) back after he missed the Commanders game. After telling reporters on Wednesday he plans to play against the Browns, the fifth-year veteran was removed from the injury report Friday.

In addition to Banks, Green Bay didn't issue a game status for the following players who'll be available Sunday: cornerback Bo Melton (shoulder), quarterback Jordan Love (left thumb), running back Josh Jacobs (ankle), cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee), and safety Zayne Anderson (knee).

Cleveland has ruled out defensive tackle Mike Hall (knee) and listed four questionable: guard Joel Bitonio (back), receiver DeAndre Carter (concussion), tackle Jack Conklin (elbow) and kicker Andre Szymt (left calf).

The Browns didn't issue a game status for the following players who will be available for Sunday: defensive lineman Maliek Collins (veteran rest), punter Corey Bojorquez (right ankle), safety Grant Delpit, guard Teven Jenkins (shoulder), and cornerback Denzel Ward (shoulder/cramping).
