Luke Musgrave

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave needed to be hospitalized after suffering a “significant” abdomen injury during Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

“He’s got a pretty significant injury. I think it speaks to his toughness,” LaFleur said Tuesday. “He didn’t say anything all game but then something came up and he called Flea (head athletic trainer Bryan Engel). He’s been in the hospital. It’s been pretty significant. This kid is as tough as they come.”

Coach Matt LaFleur said Musgrave played through the injury on Sunday but has since spent time in an area hospital. LaFleur said the Packers know the injury and Musgrave is now out of the hospital, the story went on to say. Obviously his status for Thursday is in doubt. Owners should continue to keep an eye on this.
