Matthew Golden Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Packers WR Matthew Golden (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Eagles. He put in a limited practice on Thursday but was sidelined on Friday and Saturday. HC Matt LaFleur said Golden did not suffer the setback, but the rookie seems no better than 50/50 to play against Philadelphia. He should be on fantasy benches. WRs Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) are also listed as questionable. Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson are the only Packers WRs that are in consideration as fantasy starters this week.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (shoulder) did not practice on Friday. That followed a limited practice on Thursday. It's unclear if this was a planned day off for the rookie or if that shoulder didn't respond well to Thursday's workout. We'll see what Golden does on Saturday and how he's listed on the final injury report for Monday night's game vs. the Eagles, but he shouldn't be in your Week 10 fantasy plans.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (shoulder) got in a limited practice on Thursday. HC Matt LaFleur labeled the rookie "day to day" earlier this week, and it looks like he's on track to play vs. the Eagles on Monday night. WR Dontayvion Wicks (calf) was also limited on Thursday.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur said Monday that WR Matthew Golden's shoulder injury is not serious, per ESPN's Rob Demovsky. The rookie is considered "day to day," LaFleur added. Golden gets an extra day to heal up ahead of next Monday night's game vs. the Eagles. We'll track his status throughout the week.

Further testing confirmed that Packers TE Tucker Kraft tore his right ACL in the Week 9 loss to the Panthers. He'll miss the rest of the 2025 season. Kraft will have a little over 10 months to get ready for the start of the 2026 campaign. Assuming this was a relatively clean tear with no additional damage, Kraft should have a good chance to be ready for Week 1.

Packers WR Matthew Golden is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Panthers after injuring a shoulder in the third quarter. We'll update the rookie's status when we know more.

Update: Golden has been ruled out.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks (calf) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, and Christian Watson will again operate as Green Bay’s top three WRs in that one.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (hip) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He was added to the injury report on Friday, limited in practice, and then listed as questionable. So the rookie likely isn’t at 100% for this one – and will be contending with the return of WR Christian Watson (knee), who is also active. We’re expecting Watson to be on some type of snap count in his first action since tearing his ACL in January.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (hip) is expected to play vs. the Steelers tonight, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Golden was added to the injury report on Friday, limited in practice, and listed as questionable. That adds some risk to his fantasy profile, as does the return of WR Christian Watson. Golden sits in WR3 territory in the Week 8 rankings.

Packers WR Matthew Golden (hip) was added to the injury report on Friday, limited in practice, and listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Steelers. We’ll look for more info on his status, but the late kickoff could leave fantasy owners in a tough spot. WR Christian Watson (knee) is also listed as questionable. He has a chance to make his 2025 debut in this one but shouldn’t be in Week 8 fantasy lineups. WR Dontayvion Wicks (calf) has been ruled out.

Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Cardinals. He shouldn’t be in your Week 7 fantasy plans, but his absence would add some target upside to WRs Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden. WR Christian Watson’s 2025 debut will wait at least one more week. He’s been ruled out for the Cardinals game.

Packers WR Matthew Golden led the team with 86 receiving yards in Sunday's win over the Bengals. His five targets tied for second on the team, and Golden secured three of them. His playing time, however, might have revealed an issue.

The numbers for Matthew Golden in Sunday night's tie at Dallas would seem to indicate he's continuing his upward trend. Golden caught a season-high five balls on a season-high six targets, collecting 58 yards (most of that on a 46-yard catch on the third play of the game). But a boost in team volume helped pad those numbers and hide a bad signal for his playing time.

Packers WR Jayden Reed broke his collarbone in Thursday night's win over the Commanders, HC Matt LaFleur said. The "hope" is that Reed will be back in 6-8 weeks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

No Packers WR played more than 71% of the snaps in Week 1. Romeo Doubs led the group with 34 of 48 snaps (70.8%), about 5% below last year’s average. First-round rookie Mathew Golden was next at just 47.9%. Despite Jordan Love’s success, the inconsistent usage makes the Packers’ WRs tough to start.
