Surprising 2023 playoff run has Packers believing they're capable of bigger things

Jordan Love's emergence as a top-flight starting quarterback has the Green Bay Packers confident they're ready to make a legitimate run at a Super Bowl

Released by Jacksonville The Jaguars released Deguara on Tuesday.
Impact Deguara inked a one-year deal with the Jaguars back in March after spending the first four seasons of his career with Green Bay. The Jaguars opted to retain Evan Engram, Luke Farrell and Brenton Strange at tight end over Deguara.

Limited practice Wednesday Deguara (hip) was a limited participant at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
Impact Deguara was unavailable for the team's 29-22 win over the Lions on Thanksgiving due to a hip injury, so his ability to practice in any capacity to open the week is a step in the right direction to be available for Week 13. The tight end will have two more chances to increase his workload prior to Sunday's matchup with the Chiefs.

Sidelined again Deguara (hip) was a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.
Impact That marks two straight DNPs for Deguara, as he is nursing a hip injury sustained in Sunday's win over the Chargers. With Luke Musgrave nursing a serious abdominal issue, Tucker Kraft and Ben Sims would be the only healthy tight ends if Deguara is unable to give it a go.
NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with hip issue Deguara is questionable to return to Sunday's game after suffering a hip injury.
Impact Deguara remains on Green Bay's sideline, and he's getting looked at by the team's medical staff. For the time being, Tucker Kraft should see increased opportunities on the Packers' offense.

Packers trust Josiah Deguara to know it all at tight end Fourth-year pro back in multi-pronged role after missing time in training camp
AUGUST 15, 2023 • PACKERS.COM
Josiah Deguara, Green Bay Packers, Tight End Josiah Deguara is a 6-2, 190-pound Athlete from Folsom, CA. He has committed to Cincinnati Bearcats.
JULY 24, 2023 • 247SPORTS.COM
Steps back in third season Deguara was targeted 15 times and caught 13 passes for 114 yards over 17 games in the 2022 campaign.
Impact Deguara appeared in every game for the first time in his three-year career, but he finished with roughly half the number of receptions and yards as he did in 2021, and he also failed to find the end zone after doing so twice in the previous season. He will almost certainly be back with Green Bay for a fourth go-around, but chances are he will remain in a complementary role.

Active in Week 18 Deguara (calf) is listed as active Sunday against the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Impact After sitting out Thursday's practice due to a calf injury, Deguara returned to a limited session Friday and entered the weekend listed as questionable for Week 18 action. Now that his status is confirmed, he'll continue to play a key role as a blocking tight end for the Packers offense, which doesn't hold much sway in fantasy considering he has a 13-114-0 line on 15 targets in 16 games this season.
JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tabbed as questionable for Sunday The Packers list Deguara (calf) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions.
Impact Heading into a win-or-go-home matchup with the Lions in the regular-season finale, the Packers will have all members of the 53-man roster available aside from potentially Deguara, who is tending to the calf injury. After failing to practice Thursday on account of the injury, Deguara at least managed to take a step forward Friday by practicing on a limited basis. When available, Deguara has handled a small role as a depth tight end, never playing more than 50 percent of the offensive snaps in a given week while drawing two or fewer targets in 15 of his 16 appearances on the season.
JANUARY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with injury Deguara did not participate during the Packers' practice Thursday due to a calf injury.
Impact Deguara popped up on Green Bay's injury report with this issue for the first time Thursday. The 25-year-old was seen working on a stationary bike and stretching during Thursday's session, according to Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site, so it appears he may have picked up the injury at some point during practice Wednesday. Deguara has recorded 13 catches on 15 targets for 114 yards, and his biggest contributions have come as a blocker and core special-teamer. He'll have one opportunity to increase his practice activity Friday, or else he could be in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season during Sunday's crucial regular-season finale.

Draws five targets in defeat Deguara caught all five of his targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 15-9 loss to the Lions.
Impact The tight end entered Sunday's contest with just six receptions for 65 yards over eight games, but the Packers needed more from him Sunday after rookie wideouts Romeo Doubs (ankle) and Christian Watson (head) exited early, and Deguara nearly doubled his production on the season. The Packers may continue looking for ways to get him more involved due to the attrition at wide receiver, but he is sharing snaps at tight end with Robert Tonyan and Marcedes Lewis and thus remains on the fringes of fantasy utility.

Notches reception in Week 8 Deguara recorded a nine-yard reception in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Bills.
Impact Deguara played a season-high 28 snaps (44 percent share) in the Week 8 loss, surpassing Marcedes Lewis as the Packers' No. 2 tight end for the first time all season. It's unclear if that trend will continue moving forward or if it was more of a result of the Bills having the game in hand by the fourth quarter, but either way, Deguara and Lewis will both be firmly behind starter Robert Tonyan in the pecking order for snaps at tight end.
NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Fills several roles in scrimmage Deguara led Packers tight ends in first-team reps during Green Bay's Family Night event Friday, according to Justis Mosqueda of acmepackingcompany.com.
Impact Deguara lined up as a tight end on only five plays Friday night, but be it in the backfield or in the slot, he was on the field for 10 others. When it was all said and done, only two Packers skill players -- and no one listed as a tight end -- racked up more snaps. Deguara started getting more involved later in his second season, and unless fellow tight end Robert Tonyan (knee) makes rapid progress in the weeks ahead, Deguara seems poised to be the Packers' top option at his position Week 1.
