Brian Gutekunst finally admits what Packers fans knew all along about Matthew Golden Packers fans were calling out for Matthew Golden to get more opportunities last season, and it sounds like the team has finally learned.

Records one catch in preseason Golden finished the Packers' preseason schedule with one catch (on one target) for 19 yards across two games.

Impact Golden was held without a target in the team's exhibition opener but was on the receiving end of a dot from QB Jordan Love in Denver in preseason Week 2, displaying the duo's growing rapport. Green Bay invested a first-round pick in Golden during the 2025 Draft, but a crowded receiving corps capped him to just a 29-361-0 line on 44 targets in 14 regular-season games as a rookie. With Romeo Doubs having moved on to the Patriots in free agency and Dontayvion Wicks getting traded to the Eagles this offseason, the WR options for Love are more clear cut between Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Golden, giving the latter a better chance to tap into his potential in the upcoming campaign.

Big gain on one reception Golden secured his only target for 19 yards in the Packers' 33-13 preseason win over the Broncos on Friday.

Impact The speedy wideout's one catch was nothing if not noteworthy, as it came on fourth down and against Broncos All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain. Golden put together an inconsistent but serviceable 2025 rookie campaign where he generated a 29-361-0 line on 44 targets over 14 regular-season games, but he posted a four-catch, 84-yard, one-touchdown tally in the wild-card loss to the Bears, and he's expected to take on a much bigger role this season following the offseason departures of Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks.

Gets snaps Thursday Golden failed to see a target in Thursday's 28-9 preseason loss to the Steelers.

Impact The Packers began the game with most of their offensive starters on the field, including QB Jordan Love, but they all made quick exits. Golden, the 23rd overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, is coming off a disappointing rookie campaign in which he failed to find the end zone in 14 regular-season contests. He'll battle Christian Watson and Jayden Reed for looks from Love, but as in years past in coach Matt LaFleur's offense, who the actual top option is could change from week to week.

Returns to practice Tuesday Golden (toe) returned to practice Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact With Golden and Jayden Reed (ankle) both returning to practice after brief absences, the Packers are mostly healthy at wide receivers. QB Jordan Love is expected to start Thursday's preseason game against the Steelers, but it isn't clear if Golden and Reed will be available after dealing with minor injuries earlier in the week.

Working through toe issue Golden did not practice Sunday due to a toe injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 2025 first-rounder can be considered day-to-day due to his toe issue, though it wouldn't be surprising if he were held out of Thursday's preseason opener against Pittsburgh. Golden is coming off an underwhelming rookie season but has generated some positive buzz in training camp, including Saturday night's training camp practice, per Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site. Golden is pencilled in as the Packers' WR3 behind Christian Watson and Jayden Reed (ankle), with Savion Williams, Bo Melton and Skyy Moore all in the mix for rotational reps.
