Golden emerges as Packers WR1 with 30 targets, 83% route share; WR13 in PPR.

Golden has taken on a true WR1 role with 30 targets through three games, an 83% route share, and 25% target share, putting him on pace for 170 targets this season. He's the PPR WR13 through three games with receiving yards of 95, 58, and 100 in his first three contests. After a disappointing rookie campaign, Golden has burst out of the gate. Josh Jacobs could return at any time, but for now the Packers are thrust into a pass-first offense with little talent at running back, leaving opportunity for the receiving room to keep shining. The source has moved Golden up to WR24 and identifies this as the official dawn of his breakout.
