Matthew Golden: Matthew Golden Considered Day-to-Day

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur called rookie first-round wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) day-to-day on Monday after he suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. It's not a long-term injury for Golden, but how much he's able to do at practice this week will determine whether he's able to suit up in Week 10 on Monday Night Football in a showdown against the defending-champion Philadelphia Eagles. The 22-year-old pass-catcher caught two of his three targets for only nine yards on Sunday before getting injured, so he was a bust for any fantasy managers who started him in Week 9. There have been glimpses of the star potential that Golden has in 2025, but he hasn't been able to put it all together yet. The good news is that he should have a bigger role going forward with tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) now done for the year due to a torn ACL.
