Rookie from the Packers, Matthew Golden brings joy to his grandma by presenting her a fresh new home: "She's thriving delightfully."
Matthew Golden Aims High with Green Bay Packers
Matthew Golden, the 23rd pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has set his sights on the Lombardi Trophy with the Green Bay Packers. The Houston-based football star made this clear in a recent interview, expressing that the team's ultimate goal is to win the Super Bowl[1].
Golden's journey with the Packers began at Lambeau Field, where he received a rousing ovation upon taking the stage at the draft. His preseason performance has been impressive, showcasing his elite speed and ability to create separation on short and intermediate routes[2].
The Packers, who haven't selected a wide receiver in the first round since 2002, are counting on Golden to contribute significantly to their offensive efforts. He's proving to be versatile, capable of playing across the field[3]. This development, coupled with the team's reliance on quarterback Jordan Love to lead the offense, forms a dynamic duo focused on elevating the Packers to championship contention[4].
Off the field, Golden's heart is as golden as his name. He made a promise to himself as a child to give back to his family after they struggled throughout his upbringing. This promise found fruition when he purchased a new house for his grandmother using his NFL earnings[5]. The house, located in Houston, was the setting for a heartwarming "closet dance" celebration, with his grandmother expressing her emotions upon receiving the new home[6].
Golden's grandmother lost her home years ago, a loss that deeply affected the family. But Golden, true to his word, made good on his promise, buying the house with the help of RE/MAX[7]. This act of kindness is a testament to Golden's character and his deep-rooted connection to his family.
As the season progresses, Golden and the Packers will continue to work towards their shared goal. With their sights set on the Lombardi Trophy, they are undoubtedly a team to watch in the upcoming season.
