Need him healthy. If he misses a couple of games it's ok but we need Jacobs and Kraft in the playoffs.

Guys get hurt. NFL is a sport of attrition.

All you can hope for is that it isnt a overly serious injury (it doesn't appear so) and that you have depth to withstand them (so far our injuries seem mostly regulated to our positions where we have the most depth)

This is an interesting watch. Golden was used on a ton of deep routes which makes sense since he is the only real deep threat on the roster. You can also see how badly Love underthrew the pass into the endzone and how open Golden was on the deep pass Love overthrew. You can also see several other deep routes where Golden would have been open if Love had more time.

It is unfortunate he's being relegated to these routes because he's the only WR on the roster who is an actual threat running deep. On almost every single snap in this video, you can see that Washington is playing only 1 deep safety because they don't respect the deep ball. I'd love to see Golden get a shot to run more short and intermediate routes with Reed out, but no one is going to respect Doubs, Wicks, and Heath running deep and so teams are going to continue to push safeties up to stop the run and stop underneath stuff.

This also shows why Watson is so valuable. He's even move explosive than Golden running these routes which opens up so much for everyone else. What I really want to see is Watson, Golden, and Reed all healthy by the end of the year so teams can't just pack the box like they have so far this year.

Good luck playing one deep safety all game with Watson and Golden outside, with Reed and Kraft running underneath routes. We've seen the speed on defense so far this year. Hopefully, by the end of the year we see the speed on offense.

True just don't need to have a serious injury like this every week. Already lost Reed last week, losing Kraft this week makes our wr/TE core so thin. Thankfully he's ok, keep him out 1-3 weeks if needed.

It's inevitable. Best case scenario is none of the openings are desirable and he decides to hang around for 1 more season.

Biggest gripe through the first two games by far, and this really dates back to last season where I echoed the sentiment that MLF and Love tend to overly focus on being "too egalitarian" to the detriment of the offense. I don't wanna see him with another 2-3 target outing here. Golden is an absolute stud in the making. Get him the **** ball.

Packers are signing OT Brant Banks to the 53 from the practice squad.

[Matches Malone]

Good for banks. I wonder if that means Tom is heading to IR for a bit even being under 53 active players.

Good for banks. I wonder if that means Tom is heading to IR for a bit even being under 53 active players.

It definitely feels either injury related, or possibly another team was trying to poach him
