As Matthew Golden was the first wide receiver to be taken by the Green Bay Packers in the first round of the NFL draft since Javon Walker was selected 20th overall in 2002, there was naturally a lot of pressure on the Texas alum to come in and make an immediate impact. But that's not quite the way things worked out.
In the Packers' Week 1 win over the Detroit Lions, Golden was targeted only twice but did catch both balls for 16 yards. In Green Bay's Week 2 victory over the Washington Commanders, the 22-year-old was again targeted only two times but failed to catch either pass.
