Every week, it's either Golden or Christian Watson creating big plays downfield...Golden's usage on routes across the middle of the field (32% on the season) will be another way for the Packers to create big plays against Dallas.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Golden's consistent 5+ target floor and middle-route usage offer WR2 upside vs. Cowboys.

Golden sits on fringe of Top 12 rankings but deserves higher placement based on target share. Since Week 1, he's earned no fewer than 5 targets per game and maintained 32%+ air yard share all season. Last week both Golden and Christian Watson created big plays downfield. Against Dallas, Golden's usage on in-breaking routes (similar to how Nico Collins ran 62.5% of targets on in-breaking routes for 105 yards and TD) will be another way Packers create plays against Cowboys secondary. Golden's 32% route rate on middle-of-field routes aligns with OC Nick Caley's playcalling style (shared with HC Matt LaFleur in LA).
