But that changed with Golden, who played his first two seasons in college with the Houston Cougars before transferring to Austin with the Texas Longhorns, where he turned even more heads.

In his lone season with the Longhorns, Golden amassed 987 receiving yards and nine touchdowns on 58 receptions.

Golden has big dreams not just for himself in the NFL but for the Packers, who are looking to win their first Super Bowl since 2011.
