Golden tied a career-high with 13 targets and set a new career-high with seven catches, racking up 79 yards and a touchdown. It was Golden's sixth game this year with a catch rate under 65% as his season-long mark of 52.4% ranks third-lowest among players with at least 30 targets. Drops continue to dampen what could be even greater fantasy production; he's up to a league-leading seven drops and 772 incomplete air yards.

Golden's 52.4% catch rate and league-leading 7 drops limit production upside.

Golden tied a career-high with 13 targets but set a new career-high with seven catches, yet his catch rate remains problematic. His season-long catch rate of 52.4% ranks third-lowest among players with at least 30 targets. Drops continue to dampen what could be even greater fantasy production; he's up to a league-leading seven drops and 772 incomplete air yards—the third-most by a player in Weeks 1-8 of a season since 2016.
