Packers' Matthew Golden: Emerges late in loss
Matthew Golden recorded three receptions on four targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos.Golden had only two targets and one catch through three quarters, though he was forced to step up with Christian Watson (chest) sidelined early in the third quarter. Golden delivered a long 27-yard reception early in the fourth quarter to help set up a Green Bay field goal, and he managed his highest yardage total since Week 6. The severity of Watson's injury isn't clear, though Golden should have the chance to step up for a Week 16 matchup against the Bears if Watson is sidelined.

Packers' Matthew Golden: In clear for Sunday
Matthew Golden (wrist) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest at Denver, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Green Bay Packers' official site reports.Since he injured his shoulder Week 9 against the Panthers and then picked up a wrist issue after Week 11 action, Golden has missed three contests (Weeks 10, 12 and 13) and logged 23 combined offensive snaps and four targets in his two appearances. He finally was a full participant Friday for the first time since prior to Week 9, so he presumably will be able to take on whatever workload Sunday's game plan allows for. However, all of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed (shoulder), Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Bo Melton also will be available this weekend, meaning Golden could be reduced to certain sub-packages.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Stays limited at practice
Matthew Golden (wrist) was limited at Thursday's practice.Golden has been listed with a wrist injury since Week 12 prep that sidelined him for two games and capped him at five offensive snaps and one target, which he didn't catch, in this past Sunday's win over the Bears. He joins Jayden Reed (shoulder), Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Savion Williams (foot) as limited participants this week as the Green Bay Packers' receiving corps continues to be beset by injuries. Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not Golden enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest in Denver.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Limited due to wrist
Matthew Golden (wrist) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.Golden returned from a two-game absence to play just 10 percent of Green Bay's snaps on offense in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears. Reports have suggested that Golden and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) might have played more if they'd been healthy, but it also seems like Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed are the top three on the depth chart.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Limited by wrist issue
Matthew Golden was limited by a wrist injury in Sunday's 28-21 victory over the Bears, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com.Golden played only five snaps in Week 14 after missing a pair of contests with a wrist issue, and although his snap count may have taken a hit regardless with Jayden Reed returning, the lack of playing time was at least partly due to his injury. Golden could be more involved in Week 15 if he is able to shed his injury tag by Friday, but even still, his role will likely remain limited with all of Reed, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs healthy and ahead of him on the depth chart.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Falls out of favor
Matthew Golden (wrist) failed to bring in his only target in Sunday's 28-21 win over Chicago.Golden fell out of favor after returning from a two-game layoff due to a wrist injury. The first-round rookie watched six teammates finish with higher target counts in the win. This was the concern regarding Golden's usage now that Green Bay's receiver room is back at full strength. Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) was activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's contest and was far more involved than Golden, making the former the more desirable Green Bay Packers' returning receiver to go after on the wire ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Denver.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Returning to action Sunday
Matthew Golden (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Green Bay Packers' official site reports.Golden has missed three of the last four contests due to shoulder and wrist injuries, but in his return to the lineup Week 14, he'll welcome back third-year WR Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder), who has been sidelined since Week 2. Considering all of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks entered the weekend without designations, Golden and Reed may be capped to certain situations behind that trio. Having said that, Golden has managed just a 24-286-0 line on 32 targets in nine appearances to begin his career, so he's difficult to trust for consistent production.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Questionable for Week 14
Matthew Golden (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Green Bay Packers' official site reports.Golden has a chance to return following a two-game absence. He was a limited participant in all three of Green Bay's practices during Week 14 prep. If the rookie first-round pick suits up, it remains to be seen how much playing time he will see in a Packers receiving corps that will have Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks available, as well as possibly Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR).

Packers' Matthew Golden: Limited again Thursday
Matthew Golden (wrist) was a limited practice participant Thursday.Golden is one of three Green Bay Packers wide receivers that have been limited so far this week, with Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) being the others, while Savion Williams (foot) has been a non-participant. Golden has missed three of the last four games due to shoulder and wrist injuries, but Friday's practice report may provide insight into his odds to return to action Sunday against the Bears.

Packers' Matthew Golden: Stays limited Wednesday
Matthew Golden (wrist) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday.Golden has missed back-to-back games and three of the last four due to shoulder and wrist injuries. He's been listed with only the latter concern the last two weeks, but he has yet to be anything more than a limited participant during that time. He likely will need to get back to full participation in order to avoid a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Bears.
