What happened: Golden turned 23 on Aug. 1 and is entering his second NFL season. Week 1 offers his first opportunity to turn that confidence into production.
Why it matters: PFF framed Golden as both a breakout candidate and a second-year player under pressure. That split puts added weight on his early-season usage and production.
By the numbers: PFF's pressure designation came July 12; its All-Breakout selection followed July 30, 18 days later.
What to watch: Route participation and targets in Week 1 will provide the first read on Golden's role.
