The Green Bay Packers will visit the Detroit Lions in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Matthew Golden.
Is Matthew Golden Playing in Week 13?
Golden (wrist) was a limited participant in Tuesday’s walk-through practice.
We’ll continue to monitor the Packers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Golden in Week 13?
Golden was inactive on Sunday (shoulder/wrist) and hasn’t had a game with 40 receiving yards since the middle of October.
This is a low-volume passing game that has shown no interest in getting its first-round pick involved consistently, so why would we hold out hope with him at less than full strength?
Dontayvion Wicks looked reasonably healthy over the weekend, and Jayden Reed is going to be worked into an offense that already lacks definition in terms of their target hierarchy. The juice simply isn’t worth the squeeze as you look to refine your roster for the playoffs: you can find more targets or more per opportunity upside on your wire without much trouble.
