Nixon couldn’t help but joke about Golden while praising the first-year downfield weapon.
“He sometimes acts like he’s a vet but I try to remind him that he’s a rookie,” Nixon said (h/t Mike Spofford of the Packers’ official website). “Other than that, M.G., helluva player. You can tell why he went first round. Strong at the catch point, strong hands, strong upper body. I think he’ll have a really good year.”
Green Bay Packers fans react to Golden’s touchdown score in practice
The Packers shared a slo-mo video of that connection between Willias and Golden, leaving fans with all sorts of excited reactions to it.
“malik is the guy
no one wants to admit it,” said a fan on X.
Another one said: “Malik for starting QB”
From a commenter: “IVE SEEN ENOUGH MALIK WILLIS 4X MVP”
“Finally
we might have a 1000+ yard receiver,” a social media user posted.
Via a different commenter: “@eamaddennfl He ran 4.2 how tf is he a 91 speed on madden boost his speed.”
Said another: “Hey 2 throwing it to 22 might be the answer.”
Willis and Golden could have more magic in store for the Packers, as there’s a chance they could see action this coming Saturday’s NFL preseason finale against the Seattle Seahawks at home.
