Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden is again absent from practice as the team prepares for their Thursday Night Football matchup against the Carolina Panthers. The injury report released by the Packers on Tuesday reveals that Golden has been sidelined for two consecutive days due to foot and shoulder problems. Although the Packers did not conduct a full practice session on the field, they did hold a walkthrough.
Golden, a former Texas Longhorns star, is in the midst of a remarkable season, emerging as a dependable deep threat for quarterback Jordan Love, who ranks fifth in the league with an average of 268.6 passing yards per game. Last Sunday, Golden played through a shoulder injury in the Packers' 20-17 defeat against the Detroit Lions, contributing 39 receiving yards on six catches and 12 targets.
He left the game briefly after being rattled but managed to finish the match. With just a single day of practice remaining before the Panthers game at Lambeau Field, Golden must demonstrate his presence and willingness to participate to alleviate concerns about his readiness for the Week 8 contest. Golden, selected as the 23rd overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has amassed 512 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 34 receptions and 69 targets thus far in his second professional season.
