Connor Golden brings veteran safety play and all-around reliability to Bucknell
In the 2025 season, Bucknell safety Connor Golden is a seasoned, high-activity defender who has piled up 120 career tackles, 12 pass breakups, 3.5 tackles for loss, one sack, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, and one blocked kick across 26 games with 20 starts[1]. At 6-0, 195, he profiles as a physical, versatile back-end player who shows up around the ball and has the kind of steady, assignment-sound presence coaches love in the secondary[1].
