They used a first-round pick on Matthew Golden out of Texas and also have Romeo Doubs to round out a solid 1-2 tandem.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>However, Green Bay lost Christian Watson to a torn ACL in last year&#8217;s season finale.

However, this is big news for the Packers and Jordan Love.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Watson has become the premier deep threat for the Packers&#8217; offense in the last two seasons. In 2024, he hauled in 29 receptions for 620 yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s 21.4 yards\/reception.
