Packers rookie WR Matthew Golden catches TD pass during first training camp practice

It didn't take long for Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden to find the end zone at a professional practice. The team's first-round pick -- and first first-round pick at wide receiver since 2002 -- caught a touchdown pass during his first training camp practice on Wednesday at Ray Nitschke Field in Green Bay.

According to Ryan Wood of PackersNews.com, Golden beat third-year cornerback Carrington Valentine on a slant and caught a throw from backup quarterback Malik Willis for a touchdown in a red zone drill -- creating one of the highlight plays to open training camp on Wednesday.
