He caught five passes for 100 yards last Thursday, and it honestly could have been a better day. Golden recorded nearly 200 air yards, as he continuously gets behind the defense, often forcing defensive pass interference penalties. His 95 pass interference yards drawn are easily the most in the NFL.

Golden's 95 PI yards drawn and elite air yards signal WR1 upside amid Packers' historic passing volume.

Golden is delivering the second-year breakout many hoped for, catching five passes for 100 yards in Week 3 with nearly 200 air yards and multiple deep targets. He has drawn 95 pass interference yards (most in NFL), showing how close he's been to even more fantasy points. Golden is already WR14 in PPR PPG (15.4) with strong volume ahead. The Packers lead the NFL in dropback rate (76%) and dropback rate over expected (11%), a massive shift from typical Matt LaFleur schemes, driven by their defense missing Micah Parsons. This elevated passing volume should sustain Golden's production.
