Golden's injury status uncertain, but WR1 upside if active with more targets than Watson.

Matthew Golden has a foot injury and shoulder injury and hasn't been practicing yet this week; his status for the weekend is uncertain and needs to be monitored. However, if he does play against the Panthers, the source loves him and notes he has even more targets and receptions than Christian Watson this year, making him a wide receiver one option.
