Two South Dakotans celebrated National Tight Ends Day in style. 

Timber Lake’s Tucker Kraft and Britton’s Dallas Goedert shined during National Tight Ends Day, an unofficial NFL holiday celebrated on the fourth Sunday in October to recognize the tight end position. 

Goedert, an eighth-year tight end, caught three catches for 28 yards and two touchdown receptions in the Philadelphia Eagles’ 38-20 win over the New York Giants. 

Goedert has hauled in 30 receptions for 289 yards and seven touchdown catches this season. 

Kraft, a third-year tight end, racked up career-highs in receiving yards (143), receptions (seven) and caught two touchdown passes in the Green Bay Packers’ 35-25 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. 

Kraft has caught 30 passes for 469 yards and six touchdown receptions this season. 

Kraft’s hometown was featured several times on NBC’s Sunday Night Football broadcast, including a video of his supporters from the Corner Bar & Grill. 

Kraft and Goedert were both nine-man football players, and later starred at South Dakota State University.
