RecapMatthew Golden caught 5-of-9 targets for 70 yards in the Packers’ Week 10 loss to the Vikings.
One of the Packers’ two three-and-outs in the first half can be blamed on Golden, who dropped back-to-back passes on second and third downs that would have resulted in first downs had he hauled them in. As one might expect, Golden was one of several players who was held in check in the Vikings’ 30-10 win, but he did manage to catch a few passes in the second half to salvage an otherwise forgettable fantasy day. Green Bay’s explosive passing game was nearly a non-factor in this one, as Jordan Love completed just one of his two pass attempts of 20-plus yards, after going 6-of-9 on deep attempts last week. Golden and the Packers now head into their bye week, but he will be in the fringe WR1/WR2 mix in Week 12 when the Packers return to take on the Rams.
