Malik Heath - Tacks on three receptionsHeath was targeted four times and caught three passes for nine yards in Sunday's 17-9 victory over the Bears.
ImpactHeath opened Sunday's contest as the fifth option at the wideout spot, and he finished it fourth with fellow wideout Romeo Doubs (chest) exiting early. Heath caught at least one pass in the final eight games of the regular season, but he will remain primarily a depth piece when the playoffs get underway.

Tucker Kraft - Remains primary tight endKraft was targeted three times and caught three passes for 31 yards in Sunday's 17-9 victory over the Bears.
ImpactFellow rookie tight end Luke Musgrave returned to action Sunday after missing six games with a lacerated kidney, but Kraft remained Green Bay's starting tight end, and he played 54 snaps to Musgrave's nine. Kraft produced steadily during Musgrave's absence and caught a crucial pass late in Sunday's contest, so although Musgrave opened the season as the starter at his position, it seems likely Kraft will hold onto the job for the upcoming playoff matchup with the Cowboys.

Bo Melton - Another productive appearanceMelton had five receptions for 62 yards and two carries for 14 yards in Sunday's 17-9 victory over the Bears.
ImpactMelton did not start Sunday's contest, but he wound up leading Packers wideouts with 45 snaps and tying for the team lead in targets. He made a major mark late in the campaign, tallying 22 targets, 15 receptions, 211 receiving yards, a receiving touchdown, three carries and 21 rushing yards over the final three weeks of the regular season. His prospects continue to hinge on the availability of those above him on the depth chart, but he has proven he can be relied upon when called on.
