Matthew Golden won't be wearing the No. 2 he wore at Texas. A former Packer who once wore Golden's new number reacted in real time.

Green Bay Packers first-round pick Matthew Golden was assigned the No. 81 uniform by the team on Friday. It's a big aesthetic change for Golden, who wore No. 2 in high school, as a sophomore at Houston and as a junior at Texas.

Matthew Golden was well aware that the Green Bay Packers hadn’t selected a wide receiver in the first round since 2002. But that didn’t shake his confidence.
