At 6-foot-4 and 275 pounds, Golden is a strong and powerful defensive lineman prospect, who has the potential to line up at different spots along the defensive front. He previously shared he felt the Alabama defense would be a good fit for him.
“Their (Alabama) defense is very versatile,” said Golden. “I am a versatile defensive lineman. That would definitely be a good fit for me because I like to play three tech, all depends on the situation. I’m very versatile. I can go at any position on the defensive line and dominate, no matter where I’m at.”
