“I’m going to drop it, actually. It’s over. It’s done. Just going to move on from that. Not going to stoop down there anymore. I’m not going to talk about my opponents anymore. I’m just going to talk about us because the only thing that matters is the guys in this locker room,” Kraft said via The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman.
Before their Week 14 matchup against the Detroit Lions, Tucker Kraft got into a verbal back-and-forth with Kerby Joseph, as the former accused the latter of being a dirty player. Joseph got the last laugh after securing a 34-31 victory, and he trolled Kraft during the postgame interview.
