The Packers tight end posted the “YAC and Cheese” haul on his Instagram stories this week
If Craig T. Nelson singing the national anthem for Sunday’s game wasn’t a random enough start to 2025 for the Green Bay Packers, Kraft Foods is here to pile on!
Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has become a fan favorite for his antics such as chugging a Spotted Cow at an autograph signing and his crazy trash talk, but he’s also been making a statement with his play on the field too. In particular, he’s currently leading the league in both yards after catch (YAC) and yards after contact (YACON) this season, earning him the rightful nickname of Kraft YAC and Cheese (shoutout to our very own Tyler Brooke).
That nickname has gained some steam outside of the fandom too, even reaching Kraft Foods itself. Back in November, they shared a photo to their Instagram of a box of their iconic macaroni and cheese (edited to say “yac and cheese”). They tagged Tucker Kraft in the post and asked their followers if they should make an 85-pack of their mac and cheese in honor of his jersey number.
Well, Kraft put their money where their mouth is and had one made specifically for the second-year tight end. Tucker Kraft posted the massive pack of Kraft YAC mac (is that you, Dr. Seuss?) to his Instagram stories with the caption “Officially 85 boxes of mac and cheese richer!”
Eat up, Tucker! The team needs you and all that YAC and cheesy goodness for the playoffs!
