Packers first-round draft pick Matthew Golden has checked every box through his first two days in pads. Route running. Hands. Physicality.

Week 1 of Packers Training Camp is in the books, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a player turning more heads than rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden. The Packers’ 23rd overall pick is already showing why GM Brian Gutekunst spent a first-rounder on a wideout.

Lukas Van Ness beat Jordan Morgan twice in pass-rushing 1-on-1s. Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN, Van Ness is 3-0 in the drill to start training camp. And the 2023 first-round pick has been active in 11-on-11 periods. Positive early signs.
