Jordan Love confirmed Matthew Golden is "locked down over there at X" during training camp, indicating Golden has secured the X receiver position in the Packers offense. In the LaFleur-era Packers system, the X is the weak-side receiver tasked with winning one-on-one matchups and isolated situations; the role requires sure hands and the ability to win off the line. Golden's assignment to this position suggests he will be a featured target in contested-catch situations and pre-snap reads, similar to how Romeo Doubs and Davante Adams have filled the role previously.
