The Green Bay Packers know that the 2025 off-season will be big for their offense. After their defense (and rushing attack) was solid nearly the entire year, Green Bay’s passing attack suffered mightily at times.
Injuries certainly played a role in their struggles, and those injuries will linger into 2025. Christian Watson is expected to miss a significant part of the 2025 season due to his torn ACL in Week 18.
However, there could be some pretty fast help on the way.

All 32 NFL teams have officially begun their offseason after the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
We are exactly 73 days away from the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay. Having plenty of time to add through free agency or to develop a draft plan, Green Bay won’t leave any stone unturned:
Sporting News: Texas WR Matthew Golden
Vinnie Iyer ignored history in going for the gold with Texas receiver Matthew Golden.
“The Packers need to get a true No. 1 wide receiver who can be available more than their current, oft-injured core of youngsters,” Iyer wrote. “Golden stood out for the Longhorns late with his versatile big-play ability along with flat-out being a speedy field-stretcher on vertical routes.”
Listed at 6-foot and 195 pounds, Golden caught 58 passes for 987 yards (17.0 average) and nine touchdowns in 2024. He played mostly on the perimeter at Texas but has proven inside-outside versatility.
He plays with “polish, instincts and toughness,” NFL.com’s Daniel Jeremiah said.
