From NFLN:
The #Packers are activating TE Luke Musgrave from injured reserve and he’ll play tonight against the #Saints, per source.
A remarkable return for Musgrave, who had ankle surgery in October and hasn’t played since Week 3. They’ll ease him in. pic.twitter.com/dQ4LtWVOns

The second year tight end's 21 day practice window was opened when he stepped on the practice field last Wednesday. The team has an open roster spot so there is no need for a corresonding move.
Musgrave caught 33 passes for 352 yards and one touchdown in his first 10 games last year before a lacerated kidney interrupted his rookie season. He played the final three games of 2023 and caught seven passes for 77 yards and one touchdown.
Prior to this year's ankle injury, Musgrave had five catches for 22 yards and no touchdowns.

The guy has excellent speed for a TE. If he stays healthy he could be a valuable player along with my new favorite Packer, Tucker Kraft. Maybe 3 games of action will be enough for Musgrave to be a plus in the playoffs, but I think he still needs a lot of playing time before he reaches his ceiling. He's basically only had a year of experience.
