Dontayvion Wicks Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Bears vs Packers game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 27, 2025
Scores twice in Thanksgiving win
Wicks caught six of seven targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions. He also rushed once for six yards.
ANALYSIS
Wicks recorded a 22-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter and scored a one-yard touchdown in the third quarter. He also maintained his concentration despite losing his shoe to secure a game-sealing 16-yard catch in the fourth quarter, which converted on fourth down for the Packers and allowed them to run out the clock with a pair of kneel downs on the following two plays. That final reception also helped Wicks edge out Christian Watson (80 yards) for the team lead in receiving yards, though Watson led the Packers with 10 targets Thursday. Wicks hadn't scored a regular-season touchdown since Week 16 of the 2024 season, so it remains to be seen if he can build on this Thanksgiving Day breakout when the Packers host the Bears in Week 14.
Nov 26, 2025
Cleared to play Thursday
Wicks (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice and does not carry an injury designation for Thursday's road matchup against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was listed as a limited participant on Green Bay's first two practice reports of Week 13, but he's now been cleared to play through his lingering calf injury, as usual. The third-year wideout looks set to benefit from increased opportunities n Thanksgiving Day, with Savion Williams (foot) and Jayden Reed (shoulder/foot), the latter of whom remains on IR, both ruled out to face Detroit, and Matthew Golden (wrist) listed as questionable. Though Wicks hasn't yet scored or logged a single game with at least 50 receiving yards across nine regular-season appearances so far, he'll be worth consideration as a pivot option in deeper fantasy formats if Golden is unavailable Thursday.
Nov 25, 2025
Reps capped in walkthrough
Wicks (calf) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was one of four Packers listed as limited Tuesday in what's expected to be the team's most extensive workout of the week prior to Thursday's game against the Lions. Along with Wicks, Jayden Reed (shoulder/foot) -- who remains on injured reserve -- Savion Williams (foot) and Matthew Golden (wrist) had their reps capped Tuesday. Green Bay's final practice report will be issued Wednesday and will reveal whether Wicks or any of the other three wideouts nursing injuries will carry designations into the Thanksgiving Day game.
Nov 24, 2025
Still managing calf injury
Wicks (calf) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has managed to play through his calf injury in each of Green Bay's last three games, but he now faces a short week of prep ahead of Thursday's divisional contest against the Lions. Matthew Golden (wrist) and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) are both also listed as limited Monday and could be candidates to retake the field on Thanksgiving Day, though the latter playmaker officially remains on IR. If Golden and/or Reed remain sidelined, though, Wicks will get a chance to handle expanded target volume versus the Lions, provided he's able to suit up.
Nov 24, 2025
Two catches in Week 12 win
Wicks brought in two of four targets for 32 yards in the Packers' 23-6 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Wickes finished with the second-most receiving yards and targets on the day for the Packers despite his modest output in both categories. The third-year pro has dealt with a lingering calf issue and has missed two games overall, but Wicks does have multiple catches in seven of the nine games he's appeared in. He'll have a chance at more volume during a Week 13 Thanksgiving Day showdown against the Lions that could develop into a high-scoring affair.
Nov 23, 2025
Active in Week 12
Wicks (calf) is active for Sunday's game versus the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Fellow WRs Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) were cleared Friday, and now Wicks and Savion Williams (foot) also are confirmed to be available Week 12. Meanwhile, Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist) won't suit up. Wicks thus will be on hand for targets from QB Jordan Love alongside Watson, Doubs and even Williams, but the third-year pro hasn't scored a touchdown or surpassed 50 receiving yards in any of his eight appearances this season.
Nov 21, 2025
Status in question for Sunday
Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Among seven wide receivers listed on the Packers' Week 12 injury report, Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) don't have designations, while Wicks, Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist) and Savion Williams (foot) are listed as questionable, and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) was ruled out. Wicks' status will be clarified approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he's available he's mustered just an 18-181-0 line on 30 targets across eight appearances this season.
Nov 20, 2025
Limited Thursday
Wicks (calf) was limited at Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has yet to upgrade to full during Week 12 prep as he deals with a lingering calf injury. He was joined as limited Thursday by fellow WRs Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist), Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist), Savion Williams (foot) and even Bo Melton (shoulder). Ultimately, Friday's practice report will unveil who among the group doesn't carry a designation ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Vikings.
Nov 19, 2025
Limited in practice Wednesday
Wicks (calf) did not practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks managed to play through his calf injury Week 11, when he secured one of two targets for nine yards during Green Bay's win over the Giants, but he's still managing the issue ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against the Vikings. He will have two more chances to upgrade to full practice reps before the Packers are forced to decide whether to tag Wicks with an injury designation for Week 12.
Nov 17, 2025
Limited to one reception
Wicks was targeted twice and caught one pass for nine yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Wicks finished third among Packers wideouts in snaps, but he saw only a quarter of the season-high eight targets he drew in Week 10. Wicks is getting some opportunities, but he has racked up only 18 receptions and 181 yards through eight appearances this season, and his playing time will likely take a hit when Jayden Reed (collarbone/foot) is ready to rejoin the fray.
Nov 14, 2025
Cleared for Sunday
Wicks (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Christian Watson (knee/hamstring) and Romeo Doubs (chest) also avoid injury designations, while Matthew Golden (shoulder) is listed as questionable. Wicks seems most in danger of losing snaps to Golden if the rookie returns after missing Week 10.
Nov 13, 2025
Remains limited in practice
Wicks (calf) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.
ANALYSIS
For four weeks in a row, Wicks has been listed with the calf injury that sidelined him Weeks 8 and 9. In his return to action Monday against the Eagles, he hauled in four of eight targets for 38 yards on a 65 percent snap share, which is more or less in line with his typical workload. The Packers continue to deal with a number of injuries in the receiving corps -- also, Christian Watson (knee/hamstring), Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot) -- all of whom were limited Thursday. The statuses of all four players may be clarified ahead of Sunday's game at the Giants once Green Bay posts its final Week 11 practice report Friday.
Nov 12, 2025
Still dealing with calf issue
Wicks (calf) was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.
ANALYSIS
Wicks sat out Weeks 8 and 9 due to a calf injury but returned to action Monday against the Eagles, hauling in four of eight targets for 38 yards while playing 67 percent of the snaps. His return coincided with an absence from Matthew Golden (shoulder), and both of them plus Savion Williams (foot) logged capped sessions Wednesday, while Romeo Doubs (chest) was listed as full. In the end, the state of the Packers' receiving corps is up in the air ahead of Sunday's contest at the Giants.
Nov 11, 2025
Busy night in return
Wicks hauled in four of eight targets for 38 yards in the Packers' 10-7 loss to the Eagles on Monday night.
ANALYSIS
Wicks' return from a two-game absence due to a calf injury saw him log a team-high number of targets while also finishing as the runner-up in receptions and receiving yards. Matthew Golden's (shoulder) inactive status and Romeo Doubs' exit with a chest injury both helped Wicks' cause Monday night, and the latter could be in for an expanded role again in a Week 11 road matchup against the Giants if at least one of his two teammates is sidelined.
Nov 10, 2025
Suiting up Monday
Wicks (calf) is active for Monday's game against the Eagles, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is returning to action for the first time since he injured his calf Week 7 at Arizona. With rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden (shoulder) inactive Monday, Wicks likely will be a key part of Green Bay's passing attack, as only Romeo Doubs didn't endure some type of practice restrictions during Week 10 prep. All of Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath (hip) and Savion Williams (foot) also are available along with Wicks and Doubs.
Nov 8, 2025
Status in question for Monday
Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Eagles, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is aiming for his first game action since Week 7, when he injured his calf during a win at Arizona. He wasn't able to log more than a limited session this week, leaving his status for Week 10 up in the air. Fellow WRs Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot) also are questionable, while Christian Watson (knee) and Malik Heath (hip) don't have designations. It remains to be seen who among Golden, Wicks and Williams are available along with Romeo Doubs, Watson and Heath on Monday.
Nov 7, 2025
Remains limited at practice
Wicks (calf) practiced in a limited capacity Friday.
ANALYSIS
After missing the last two games without practicing in advance of both, Wicks now has logged back-to-back capped sessions as he seeks his first game action since he tweaked his calf during a Week 7 win at Arizona. Saturday's injury report will reveal his odds to suit up Monday against the Eagles along with the Packers' other banged-up WRs: Matthew Golden (shoulder, DNP on Friday after LP on Thursday), Christian Watson (knee, LP both days), Malik Heath (hip, added as LP on Friday) and Savion Williams (foot, LP on Friday after DNP on Thursday).
Nov 6, 2025
Set for limited practice
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Wicks (calf) will be a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
After tweaking his calf in the Packers' Week 7 win over the Cardinals, Wicks sat out both of Green Bay's subsequent two games while not practicing in any fashion ahead of either contest. The third-year wideout's ability to take the field in a limited capacity as the Packers begin Week 10 prep thus amounts to progress, though Wicks may still need to upgrade to full participation by Saturday in order to gain clearance for Monday's game against the Eagles. Wicks could find himself a spot lower in the pecking order at receiver once he returns, as the Packers have since welcomed Christian Watson back from the PUP list while Wicks has been on the mend.
Oct 31, 2025
Won't play in Week 9
Wicks (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has missed the last two weeks of practice due to the calf injury that he sustained during a Week 7 win at Arizona. He'll now sit out a second contest in a row as a result, making his next chance for game action Monday, Nov. 10 versus the Eagles. The Packers' Week 9 receiving corps will be composed of Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath and Savion Williams.
Oct 30, 2025
No practice Thursday
Wicks (calf) isn't practicing Thursday, Dominique Yates of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks hasn't been able to practice since injuring his calf Week 7 in Arizona, already missing one game as a result. He thus has one more chance to mix into drills this week before the Packers potentially make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's contest against the Panthers. Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath and Savion Williams represent the other wide receivers on Green Bay's active roster.
Oct 29, 2025
Not practicing
Wicks (calf) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks missed a Week 8 win over the Steelers after hurting his calf Week 7 at Arizona. He may not have much of a role even when he's healthy, as the Packers just got Christian Watson back in the lineup and then saw him put up 84 yards in his first game of the year.
Oct 29, 2025
Won't practice Wednesday
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Wicks (calf) will not practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is working his way back from a calf injury suffered Week 7 versus Arizona, and he didn't practice at all Week 8 en route to being ruled out versus the Steelers. He appears to now be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game against the Panthers. That said, Wicks will have two more chances to get back on the practice field before Green Bay decides whether to assign him a game-day injury designation for Week 9.
Oct 24, 2025
Not playing in Week 8
Wicks (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks exited in the second half of last Sunday's win at Arizona due to a calf injury, and coach Matt LaFleur told Zach Kruse of USA Today on Wednesday that the third-year wide receiver wasn't in line to practice this week. Wicks indeed didn't mix into drills Wednesday through Friday and thus will miss his first game of the season. The Packers have two other question marks in the receiving corps, with Christian Watson (knee) awaiting activation from the reserve/PUP list and Matthew Golden (hip) added to the injury report Friday as limited. Green Bay's current healthy options at the position are Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams.
Oct 23, 2025
On track to miss Week 8
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Wicks (calf) isn't in line to practice this week, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Though LaFleur didn't definitively rule Wicks out for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, the third-year wideout is highly unlikely to play while he continues to manage a calf injury he sustained in last week's win over Arizona. Wicks' expected absence could be offset by the potential return of fellow wideout Christian Watson (knee), who is in the midst of his third week of practicing with the team and may be activated from the PUP list ahead of Sunday's contest.
Oct 22, 2025
No practice Wednesday
Wicks (calf) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks remains sidelined due to a calf injury sustained during Green Bay's win over Arizona in Week 7. In the event that Wicks isn't able to return to health in time to suit up on the road against Pittsburgh during Sunday Night Football, additional reps at the wide receiver position will be made available to Malik Heath, Savion Williams, and perhaps even Christian Watson (knee), who remains on the the reserve/PUP list but has been practicing on a limited basis.
Oct 19, 2025
Injures calf Sunday
Wicks sustained a calf injury during Sunday's game at Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Wicks dealt with an ankle injury during Week 7 prep but was able to suit up Sunday. If he's unable to return to action, he'll end the contest with one catch (on two targets) for five yards.
Oct 19, 2025
Suiting up Sunday
Wicks (ankle) is listed as active Sunday in Arizona, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks made an early departure from last Sunday's win against the Bengals due to an ankle injury and subsequently was limited in all three of the Packers' Week 7 practices. However, the issue won't impact his availability for Sunday, and he'll be among Green Bay wide receivers suiting up for QB Jordan Love along with Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams.
Oct 17, 2025
Deemed questionable for Week 7
Wicks (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Bo Brack of PHNX Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was limited in all three of Green Bay's practices leading up to Sunday's clash with the Cardinals. If healthy, he should operate as Green Bays No. 3 wide receiver behind Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden.
Oct 16, 2025
Limited again Thursday
Wicks (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has logged back-to-back limited practice sessions since sustaining an ankle injury during Green Bay's win over the Bengals in Week 6. In order to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's road matchup against the Cardinals, Wicks will likely need to upgrade to full practice reps Friday. Malik Heath and Savion Williams will benefit from added opportunities behind Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden if Wicks misses any time.
Oct 15, 2025
Limited in practice
Wicks (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks suffered an ankle injury during this past Sunday's win against the Bengals, but his ability to handle some reps to kick off Week 7 prep generally is a good sign that it isn't a long-term concern. Having said that, he likely will need to practice fully by Friday in order to avoid heading into the weekend without a designation for Sunday's road matchup with the Cardinals.
Oct 15, 2025
Practicing Wednesday
Wicks (ankle) took part in practice Wednesday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks made an early exit from Sunday's win against the Bengals due to an ankle injury and didn't return to action. Getting back on the practice field just three days later generally is a good sign of his health, but Wednesday's injury report ultimately will reveal his activity level to begin Week 7 prep.
Oct 12, 2025
Injures ankle Sunday
Wicks sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's game versus the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Prior to departing in the third quarter, Wicks notched two catches (on two targets) for 15 yards. The Packers will be rolling with Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams at wide receiver while Wicks is sidelined.
Sep 30, 2025
Another two-catch contest
Wicks was targeted four times and caught two passes for 19 yards in Sunday's 40-40 tie with the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Wicks would have had a chance for a long-gainer had teammate Matthew Golden not been in the same area on a deep ball from quarterback Jordan Love early in the contest, but he would up finishing with just a pair of catches for the third time in four games. The playing time has slowly ticked up for Wicks, but the production hasn't followed suit, and he could be joined at practice by fellow wideout Christian Watson (knee) following Green Bay's Week 5 bye.
Sep 21, 2025
Two grabs in Week 3 loss
Wicks brought in two of four targets with 21 yards in the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks retained a minor role in the Packers' first full game without Jayden Reed (IR, collarbone/foot), actually seeing a two-target drop from Week 2. Wicks has at least two catches in each of his first three games, but he's yet to top 44 receiving yards in any contest as the Packers prepare to head to Dallas for a Week 4 matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday night.
Sep 12, 2025
Four catches in Week 2 win
Wicks brought in four of six targets for 44 yards in the Packers' 27-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Wicks appeared to benefit from Jayden Reed's first-quarter exit due to a shoulder injury, as the former finished second across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets to Tucker Kraft. The third-year pro outpaced both Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden by one- and four-target margins, and it remains to be seen if he'll remain a primary beneficiary beginning with a Week 3 road matchup against the Browns on Sunday, Sept 21 after Reed was diagnosed with a broken collarbone that's expected to land him on injured reserve, per Zach Jacobson of 247Sports.com.
Sep 10, 2025
Ready for Week 2
Wicks (calf) doesn't have a designation for Thursday's contest against the Commanders, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was listed as limited on all three Week 2 practice reports, but he'll continue to play through the calf injury that has bothered him since late July. Fellow WRs Jayden Reed (foot) and Matthew Golden (ankle) also have been cleared for Thursday's game, so a similar workload to Week 1 for Wicks may be on tap. During Sunday's 27-13 victory versus the Lions, Wicks earned a 46 percent snap share, ran nine routes and finished with two catches (on two targets) for 30 yards.
Sep 9, 2025
Limited again Tuesday
Wicks (calf) was a limited participant during Tuesday's walk-through practice.
ANALYSIS
Though Green Bay listed Wicks as a limited participant on its second straight practice report, head coach Matt LaFleur hasn't indicated that the third-year receiver is in any real danger of sitting out Thursday's game against the Commanders. Wicks saw modest involvement while he was part of a deep rotation of pass catchers in Sunday's season-opening 27-13 win over the Lions, playing 21 snaps on offense on his way to a 2-30-0 receiving line on two targets.
Sep 8, 2025
Remains limited by calf
Wicks (calf) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Packers didn't hold practice Monday, but Wicks was joined by two position mates on the report, as Jayden Reed (foot) was listed as a DNP and rookie Matthew Golden (ankle) was tagged as limited. Wicks himself has been tending to a calf injury since the early days of training camp, but he suited up Sunday versus the Lions and gathered in both of his targets for 30 yards while playing 46 percent (22 of 48) of the offensive snaps. Wednesday's practice report may give some clarity on his status in advance of Thursday's contest against the Commanders.
Sep 8, 2025
Makes two receptions
Wicks was targeted twice and caught two passes for 30 yards in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
ANALYSIS
A calf injury left Wicks uncertain for Week 1, but he suited up for the season opener and worked as a reserve wideout. Wicks could get a bit more involved after averaging 4.5 targets per game a season ago, but even with Christian Watson (knee) sidelined he seemingly remains the fourth option among Packers receivers behind the trio of Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden and Romeo Doubs.
Sep 7, 2025
Available Week 1
Wicks (calf) is active for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was sidelined for the entire preseason due to a calf injury, but after getting back on the practice field as of Aug. 27, he logged limited sessions during Week 1 prep, leaving his status in question for Sunday. With his availability now confirmed, he'll be among the wide receivers at the services of QB Jordan Love along with Jayden Reed (foot), rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Savion Williams (hamstring) and Malik Heath.
Sep 5, 2025
Questionable for Week 1
Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Listed as a limited participant all week, Wicks is one of three Packers wideouts with a 'questionable' designation, joining Jayden Reed (foot) and Savion Williams (hamstring). Wicks could have a sizable role come Sunday if he's active and Reed isn't, but Matthew Golden and Romeo Doubs would still be the much safer bets to pile up snaps/routes/targets for Green Bay. Kickoff is schedule for 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday.
Sep 4, 2025
Limited again Thursday
Wicks (calf) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is one of three Packers wide receivers to operate with a cap on his reps Thursday, the others being Jayden Reed (foot) and Savion Williams (hamstring). Reed actually returned to practice after sitting out Wednesday as he tends to a Jones fracture in his left foot, which his left his status up in the air for Week 1. In the end, Friday's injury report will provide a sense of each players' odds to suit up Sunday against the Lions, though an absent Reed and/or Williams could hand Wicks a higher target share than expected to begin the campaign.
Sep 3, 2025
Limited Wednesday
Wicks (calf) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has been tending to a calf injury since at least July 29 that kept him out of most practices and the entire preseason slate until he got back on the field last Wednesday. With a cap remaining on his reps to kick off Week 1 prep, he remains at less than 100 percent along with rookie third-round pick Savion Williams (hamstring), while Jayden Reed (foot) didn't participate at all Wednesday. The Packers thus have key question marks at wide receiver in advance of Sunday's contest against the Lions.
Aug 27, 2025
Resumes on-field work
Wicks (calf) took part in Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was on and off the practice field in the early days of training camp due to a calf injury, which kept him sidelined for all sessions and preseason games since Aug. 1. Both he and Jayden Reed (foot) mixed into drills Wednesday after lengthy absences, signaling that they're ramping up ahead of Week 1 preparations. Next Wednesday's practice report will reveal whether Wicks is a full participant or still operating with limitations.
Aug 19, 2025
Still not practicing
Wicks (calf) is not participating in practice Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks' calf injury has forced him to miss back-to-back preseason games, meaning Saturday's exhibition finale against Seattle will be his finale chance to log game reps before the regular season. Malik Willis appears in line to draw a final preseason start Saturday with Jordan Love (thumb) not yet ready for 11-on-11 reps. Elsewhere in Green Bay's receiving corps, Jayden Reed (foot) and Savion Williams (hamstring) are not practicing, while Romeo Doubs returned from his back injury Monday.
Aug 9, 2025
Missing Saturday's preseason opener
Wicks (calf) isn't playing against the Jets in Green Bay's first preseason contest Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has been nursing a calf issue since late July and has been in and out of practice. As such, it's not surprising that he won't play Saturday, though there hasn't been any suggestion that the wideout's injury is a serious concern. Top wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot) is also sitting out Saturday's matchup, leaving rookie Matthew Golden and veteran Romeo Doubs as the top pass-catching options for Jordan Love, who is slated to see some action.
Aug 7, 2025
Sitting out practice again
Wicks (calf) is not participating in practice Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks has been managing a calf injury since late July, so it seems unlikely that he'll be in consideration to suit up for Saturday's preseason opener against the Jets. The third-year wideout appears to simply be managing a minor injury, though, as the Packers haven't expressed any concerns about his long-term availability. Jayden Reed (foot) is also sitting out practice Thursday.
Aug 2, 2025
Sidelined again
Wicks (calf) was unable to practice Saturday, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was bothered by a calf injury early in camp and has been on and off the practice field. After missing sessions early in the week, he was able to partially practice both Thursday and Friday. It's unclear if Wicks' lack of participation Saturday is the sign of a setback or is just maintenance.
Aug 1, 2025
Able to practice Friday
Wicks (calf) participated in the early portion of Friday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
It was previously thought that Wicks and Jayden Reed (toe) would sit out the session, but both wideouts ended up practicing. As the coming campaign approaches, Wicks is competing for targets in a crowded Green Bay WR corps that also includes Reed, Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs and Savion Williams.
Aug 1, 2025
Missing another practice
Wicks (calf) isn't practicing Friday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks returned Thursday from a brief absence to log partial participation in practice. He sat out full-team drills, however, and is now missing practice entirely again. It's unclear if this is indicative of a setback or just part of Green Bay's plan to avoid aggravating Wicks' calf injury. In any case, it sounds like rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden is well on his way to locking up a top-three role alongside Jayden Reed (toe) and Romeo Doubs.
Jul 31, 2025
Back at practice Thursday
Wicks (calf) is participating in practice Thursday, though he spent time off to the side on a stationary bike during 11-on-11 drills, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks appears to be limited Thursday after a calf injury forced him to miss Green Bay's prior session on Tuesday (the team rested Wednesday). It's encouraging to see the third-year pro already back on the field, even if he's not yet cleared for team reps. Wicks is competing for standing in one of the league's most crowded wide receiver corps, and depending on how consistent a performance he's able to log throughout training camp and the preseason, there seems like a wide range of outcomes for his utilization in 2025.
Jul 29, 2025
Dealing with calf injury
Wicks (calf) is not practicing Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks participated in Green Bay's first five training camp practices but has now picked up a calf injury, and a timetable for his return hasn't yet surfaced. The Packers added first-round wideout Matthew Golden (who is already taking first-team reps), third-rounder Savion Williams and Mecole Hardman in free agency, providing increased competition for Wicks in a WR corps that also returns Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs, with Christian Watson (ACL) also tentatively working back into the mix later in the 2025 season. Wicks' separation skills are beyond repute, so if he can clean up his issues with drops (tied for third in the league with nine in 2024), he could take a step forward despite the added competition, but if consistency issues continue to plague the 2023 fifth-round pick he may simply fade into a murky rotation lower on the depth chart.
Jan 12, 2025
Struggles with six targets
Wicks recorded two receptions on six targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was thrust into an expanded role with Christian Watson (knee) sidelined and both Jayden Reed (shoulder) and Romeo Doubs (concussion) suffering injuries during the game. He saw a team-high six targets as a result, though he struggled to convert that into production. The exception came on a long 29-yard reception midway through the third quarter, which helped set up a field goal as the Packers attempted to rally. Wicks will be back with the team for his third pro season in 2025, and he could see an expanded role early in the campaign depending on Watson's recovery.

Five catches as Watson goes down
Wicks caught five of six targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Wicks led the Packers in catches while finishing four receiving yards shy of Malik Heath's team-leading total in the regular-season finale. Both depth wideouts could maintain elevated roles on the road against the Eagles in the wild-card round, as fellow wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) exited Sunday's loss due to a non-contact injury and Romeo Doubs (illness) didn't dress. Wicks caught 39 of 76 targets for 415 yards and five touchdowns in an up-and-down regular season.
Jan 1, 2025
Four grabs against Vikings
Wicks caught four of five targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Wicks finished second in playing time among Packers wideouts, handling a 73 percent offensive snap share in the contest. The 23-year-old's five targets were also second most among Green Bay pass catchers, trailing only Romeo Doubs (11). With teammate Christian Watson (knee) inactive for the game, Wicks saw a more prominent role than usual. With that said, he remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes in a Week 18 matchup against the Bears.
Dec 24, 2024
Clicks in Week 16
Wicks was targeted seven times and had three receptions for 13 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 34-0 victory over the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Wicks did not do much after finding the end zone on Green Bay's opening drive, but he did record his first touchdown since Week 7. Wicks has gotten more involved after a quiet midseason stretch, and he could be busier than he has been in Week 17 if fellow wideout Christian Watson (knee) is unable to go.
Dec 18, 2024
Two catches against Seattle
Wicks caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Wicks had a quiet day in Week 15, recording his lowest yardage total in the past four games. The 23-year-old wideout played 30 of the Packers' 64 offensives snaps, behind Christian Watson (50), Romeo Doubs (48) and Jayden Reed (38). As long as the trio of top receivers remains healthy down the stretch, Wicks will continue to see an uphill battle for consistent playing time. The Virginia product will be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the Packers host the Saints in Week 16.
Dec 6, 2024
Four catches in division loss
Wicks secured four of five targets for 49 yards in the Packers' 34-31 loss to the Lions on Thursday night.
ANALYSIS
Wicks tied Tucker Kraft for second in targets and Christian Watson for the team lead in receptions, although he was a distant second to the latter in receiving yards. Nevertheless, it was notable that Wicks logged four more targets than No. 1 receiver Jayden Reed, who went without a catch. Wicks has back-to-back four-reception outings heading into a Week 15 road matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday night, Dec. 15, but he could be looking at a reduced role if Romeo Doubs (concussion) returns for that game.
Nov 30, 2024
Logs season-high snap share Week 13
Wicks recorded four catches on five targets for 30 yards Thursday in a 30-17 victory versus the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
Romeo Doubs (concussion) missed the Thanksgiving Day game, making room for more opportunity for Wicks. The latter was on the field for 89 percent of Green Bay's offensive snaps after not playing more than 40 percent of the team's offensive snaps over the previous two weeks. Wicks' production remained modest, however, and if Doubs is able to return to action next Thursday against Detroit, Wicks may again spend more time on the sideline than on the field.
Nov 26, 2024
Back in box score
Wicks was targeted twice and had one reception for 25 yards in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was shut out in back-to-back appearances leading up to Sunday's contest, but he got back on the board with a long reception in the fourth quarter of the game. Opportunities have been lacking for Wicks, who has just three 20-yard receptions in 2024 after racking up 11 of those across 15 regular-season games in 2023. He could see a boost in targets in Week 13 if fellow receiver Romeo Doubs (concussion) is unable to play, but he will enter with just three receptions for 36 yards across his last four appearances, and he will take on a Miami defense that has shut down opposing wideouts as well as anyone.
Nov 18, 2024
Shut out once more
Wicks was targeted once and did not catch a pass in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Wicks did not record a reception in the final game Green Bay played before its Week 10 bye, and that was the case again Sunday. Wicks has shown he can produce when given the opportunity, but he simply is not getting those right now, as over the last three games his team played he averaged just 22.7 snaps per contest while totaling only six targets.
Nov 4, 2024
Finishes without reception
Wicks was targeted three times and did not catch a pass in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Wicks would have had a better day had he hauled in a pass from quarterback Jordan Love in the end zone during the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest, but when it was all said and done he was shut out in the receptions department for the third time in nine games. Wicks has found paydirt four times this season, but he has totaled just 16 catches and all of Green Bay's receivers are healthy, so it could be worth making a roster move with the Packers on bye in Week 10.
Oct 28, 2024
Draws just two targets
Wicks was targeted twice and caught two passes for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Wicks found the end zone for the fourth time this season his last time out, but he did not do much for fantasy players that included him in Week 8 lineups. Wicks remain capable of producing when given the opportunity, but he has had fewer of those of late, as since injuring his shoulder in Week 6 his snap count has taken a noticeable hit. Wicks could get back on track in Week 9 against a Lions team that has allowed opposing wideouts to rack up a league-high 124 receptions, but his prospects will take a hit if starting quarterback Jordan Love (groin) is unable to go.
Oct 20, 2024
Catches 30-yard TD in Week 7 win
Wicks (shoulder) caught three of six targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Wicks finished second behind Romeo Doubs in both targets and receiving yards while playing through a shoulder injury the former sustained in Week 6 against Arizona. Most of Wicks' production came on a 30-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. Wicks has reached the end zone on four of his 14 catches this season, and the opportunistic wide receiver will try to continue his scoring spree in Week 8 against a generous Jacksonville secondary.
Oct 20, 2024
Active in Week 7
Wicks (shoulder) is listed as active Sunday against the Texans, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks made an early departure from last Sunday's win against the Cardinals in the first half with a shoulder injury that initially was reported to be a week-to-week concern. He then put himself in a position to be available Week 7 after cobbling together three limited practices that left him questionable for Sunday's game. Now that he's active, Wicks likely will remain Green Bay's fourth option at wide receiver with all of Jayden Reed, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs suiting up.
Oct 18, 2024
Questionable for Sunday
Wicks (shoulder) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was a limited practice participant all week, after missing the final three quarter of last week's win over the Cardinals. He seem to have avoided a serious injury but could end up inactive ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday, in which case Christian Watson would get more snaps than usual and other Packers pass catchers would see slight boosts to their target-share projections.
Oct 17, 2024
Another limited session
Wicks (shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After Wicks exited this past Sunday's contest against the Cardinals and wasn't able to return due to a shoulder issue, it was reported by Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports that the wide receiver was week-to-week, which often puts players in danger of missing further game action. However, Wicks has bucked that report and so far has managed two capped practices this week. In the end, Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's matchup with the Texans.
Oct 16, 2024
Officially limited Wednesday
Wicks (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks sustained a shoulder injury this past Sunday versus the Cardinals and wasn't able to return to action. There was an initial belief that he was in the week-to-week category, per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports, but Wicks' ability to practice Wednesday has given him a chance to be available Sunday against the Texans. Fellow WRs Jayden Reed (ankle) and Christian Watson (ankle) also had a cap on their reps to begin Week 7 prep, so the situation will be one to watch as the week goes on.
Oct 16, 2024
Practicing Wednesday
Wicks (shoulder) took part in Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After departing this past Sunday's win against the Cardinals due to a shoulder injury, Wicks initially was deemed week-to-week, per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports. Having said that, Wicks' ability to participate in at least individual drills to begin Week 7 prep may put him closer to day-to-day. Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reported Wicks was wearing a brace on his upper arm Wednesday, so his ability to play Sunday against the Texans could come down to pain tolerance.
Oct 14, 2024
Week-to-week with shoulder injury
Wicks (shoulder) is considered week-to-week, Fox Sports NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks exited Sunday's win over the Cardinals due to the shoulder injury. His week-to-week status suggests Wicks could miss Green Bay's Week 7 home game against the Texans, though his participation or lack thereof in practice will provide a hint as to his availability. Jayden Reed (ankle), Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs should continue to operate as the Packers' top three receivers.
Oct 13, 2024
Won't return to Week 6 contest
Wicks (shoulder) has been ruled out from returning to Sunday's matchup against Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was injured in the first half and was initially deemed questionable to return before being ruled out early in the third quarter. Prior to his exit, the wideout caught one of three targets for nine yards. Malik Heath could get a bit more work on offense with Wicks done for the day.
Oct 13, 2024
Leaves Sunday's game
Wicks exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals after sustaining a shoulder injury.
ANALYSIS
Before leaving the contest, Wicks caught one of his three targets for nine yards. In his absence, Jayden Reed, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs are on hand to lead the Packers' Week 6 WR corps.
Oct 6, 2024
Little production on seven targets
Wicks recorded two catches on seven targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
As anticipated, Wicks stepped into a bigger role with both Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (suspension) unavailable. Wicks led the team in targets, though he struggled to get on the same page with Jordan Love -- particularly on deep targets. The duo have shown rapport in the past and there's a strong chance that Wicks will operate as a key part of the Green Bay offense in Week 6 against Arizona, making him a decent bounceback candidate.
Sep 29, 2024
Pair of touchdowns in loss
Wicks brought in five of 13 targets for 78 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers' 31-29 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The lack of efficiency aside, there were plenty of reasons for fantasy managers to draw encouragement from Wicks' performance after the second-year wideout was blanked in two of his first three games. Wicks not only led the Packers in targets, but all three components of his receiving line were season highs. Additionally, Wicks scored his second and third touchdowns of the campaign on six- and 17-yard scoring grabs in the fourth quarter, helping key a comeback that was nearly successful. Although there will always be plenty of competition for Jordan Love's attention, Wicks holds plenty of appeal heading into a Week 5 road matchup against a vulnerable Rams secondary that Christian Watson (ankle) could miss.
Sep 23, 2024
Records another goose egg
Wicks was targeted twice and did not catch a pass in Sunday's 30-14 victory over the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Wicks caught three passes for 26 yards and a score in Week 2, but he has now sandwiched that showing with a pair of goose eggs. He has finished fourth among Packers wideouts in snaps in all three games the team has played this season, and while his upside will get a boost when starting quarterback Jordan Love (knee) returns, he remains in a complementary role heading into Week 4.
Sep 16, 2024
Finds paydirt in win
Wicks was targeted four times and caught three passes for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 victory over the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was held without a reception in Week 1, but it did not take him long to make a mark in Week 2, as he hauled in a touchdown pass from Malik Willis in the first quarter of Sunday's contest. Wicks finished fourth among Packers receivers in snaps for the second time as many weeks, but the snap distribution was more spread out among the top five wideouts than it was in the opener. Whether that's because Willis was under center rather than Jordan Love is not evident, so while things look better for Wicks than they did after one contest, his stock has seemingly not been altered significantly.
Sep 7, 2024
Shut out in opener
Wicks was targeted three times and did not catch in Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was on the field for 31 of the 67 plays Green Bay ran Friday, but he was unable to haul in any of the passes thrown his direction. A productive rookie campaign made Wicks a trendy sleeper pick in fantasy drafts, but he finished fourth among Packers wideouts in snaps in Week 1, and he will presumably remain the fourth option at his position as long as the three receivers who played more than him stay healthy.
Aug 11, 2024
Hauls in long TD
Wicks caught his only target for 65 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 23-10 preseason win over the Browns.
ANALYSIS
The second-year wideout was on the other end of a downfield strike from Jordan Love on the Packers' first possession, and both players called it a day after that. Wicks is jockeying for snaps and targets this season with Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed in a crowded Green Bay receiving corps, and showing strong chemistry with Love in the preseason can only help his standing.
Aug 5, 2024
Still behind Doubs and Watson?
Wicks took only six of a possible 26 snaps with the first-team offense during the Packers' Family Night practice Saturday, Justin Mosqueda of Acme Packing Co. reports.
ANALYSIS
Romeo Doubs led the WRs with 21 first-team snaps, followed by Christian Watson (19) and Jayden Reed (16). It's only one practice, but this adds to the concerns about Wicks not getting regular playing time despite making the most of his limited opportunities as a rookie. The 2023 fifth-round pick led the Packers in yards per target (10.0) and yards per route (2.13) last season, putting up a 39-581-4 receiving line on just 58 targets, 273 routes and 458 snaps. In different circumstances, Wicks might now slot in as a comfortable starter with a full workload. His current reality, however, is that the Packers' impressive depth at wide receiver means he'll have to continue battling for snaps.
Jan 22, 2024
Ends with goose egg
Wicks was targeted twice but did not catch a pass in Saturday's 24-21 loss to the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Wicks entered Saturday's contest on a bit of a hot streak, but he did not make a mark outside the targets in Green Bay's final game of the season. He did reach the end zone in his team's playoff opener, and over the final six games of the regular season he averaged 3.7 receptions and 56.8 receiving yards while scoring three times. Every Packers wideout that finished the season on the roster is under contract for 2024, so it's tough to predict what role Wicks will open next season in. However, he made a major mark during his rookie season, and he figures to make a push for a starting spot in Year 2.
Jan 15, 2024
Finds paydirt in win
Wicks was targeted twice and caught two passes for 25 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-32 victory over the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Wicks did not do much in the receptions or yardage columns, but he found the end zone again after doing so three times over his final two appearances of the regular season. Green Bay had all its receivers available Sunday for the first time since Week 13, but Wicks was still credited with a start and finished second among Packers wideouts in snaps. He will continue playing a key role the rest of the way.
Jan 7, 2024
Two touchdowns in Week 18
Wicks recorded six receptions on seven targets for 61 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Wicks matched his season high with seven targets and led the team with six receptions. Though he was overshadowed by Jayden Reed from a yardage perspective, Wicks accounted for both of Green Bay's touchdowns with receptions of 10 and 12 yards. His emergence has overlapped with the absence of Christian Watson (hamstring), so Wicks' role in the Packers' wild-card round matchup against the Cowboys is unclear for the time being. Regardless of his results next week, he closed his first regular season with 39 receptions, 581 yards and four touchdowns across 15 games.
Jan 7, 2024
Active in Week 18
Wicks (chest) is listed as active Sunday versus the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks didn't play last Sunday at Minnesota due to a chest injury, and despite following up a limited walkthrough Wednesday with back-to-back full sessions to end Week 18 prep, he was deemed questionable ahead of this Sunday's game. Along with Wicks being available to the Packers offense, Jayden Reed (chest) also is suiting up, while Christian Watson (hamstring) will miss a fifth game in a row. Wicks thus will mix into three-wide sets with Reed and Romeo Doubs as he looks to build upon his 33-520-2 line on 51 targets in 14 appearances this season.
Jan 5, 2024
Among team's questionable WRs
Wicks (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks sat out the Packers' Week 16 win over Minnesota, but he upgraded to full practice participation Thursday, suggesting that the rookie wide receiver is more likely than not to suit up for Sunday's pivotal game. Green Bay's wide receiver depth chart is in flux heading into the regular-season finale, as Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) are also listed as questionable.
Jan 4, 2024
Logs full practice Thursday
Wicks (chest) practiced fully Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Among the Packers' trio of injured wide receivers, Wicks is the first one this week to log all on-field work in a session, as Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) remained limited Thursday. Watson and Reed seem like decent bets to be available Sunday against the Bears, but Friday's injury report will reveal if either or both have designations for that contest. If either of them is sidelined this weekend, Wicks would be the top candidate to join the other in three-wide sets along with Romeo Doubs. Even if both Watson and Reed suit up, though, Wicks should be good for a regular role in Green Bay's, as he's averaged 4.5 targets per game in his last eight appearances.
Jan 3, 2024
Limited Wednesday
Wicks (chest) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough.
ANALYSIS
This marks Wicks' first visible on-field reps since enduring a chest injury Week 16 at Carolina that sidelined him this past Sunday at Minnesota. Fellow banged-up wide receivers Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) also had caps on their reps to begin Week 18 prep, so the trio will be monitored closely as the weekend approaches to see if any of them may be unavailable Sunday against the Bears.
Dec 31, 2023
Not playing Sunday
Wicks (chest/ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday at Minnesota, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was knocked out of last Sunday's win at Carolina with a chest injury, which kept him off the practice field until Friday. After the Packers listed him as questionable for Week 17 action, coach Matt LaFleur told Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com that Wicks was "very limited" in Friday's session, and the lack of activity likely swayed the team to hold out the rookie fifth-round pick this weekend. With Christian Watson (hamstring) also out Sunday, Green Bay's options at wide receiver are Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton.
Dec 29, 2023
Officially questionable,
Wicks (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota after managing "very limited" participation in practice Friday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Matt LaFleur said Wicks would need to return to practice Friday in order to play Sunday, and while it sounds like the rookie technically did so, LaFleur's comment suggests Wicks is more likely to be inactive than to play. Fellow wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) is listed as doubtful, while slot man Jayden Reed (toe) avoided a game designation after missing last week's game. If Watson and Wicks end up inactive, Malik Heath would be the favorite to get most of the snaps in three-wide sets alongside Reed and Romeo Doubs.
Dec 29, 2023
Not practicing, unlikely to play
Wicks (chest/ankle) isn't practicing Friday and isn't likely to play Sunday against the Vikings, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks played through an ankle injury last week and filled in for Christian Watson (hamstring) until a chest injury in the second quarter ended his day early. Coach Matt LaFleur said Wicks and Watson would need to practice Friday to have a shot at playing this week, and with neither having done so, it looks like Malik Health and/or Bo Melton will get significant playing time again.
Dec 28, 2023
No practice Thursday
Wicks (chest/ankle) isn't taking part in practice Thursday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The same can be said for Christian Watson (hamstring), giving the pair just one more chance to mix into drills this week before the Packers potentially make rulings on both players. Meanwhile, fellow wide receiver Jayden Reed (toe/chest) was seen mixing into drills for a second straight session along with the healthy Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton.
Dec 27, 2023
No practice Wednesday
Wicks (chest) didn't practice Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed as much, but it runs counter to Wicks seeming to mix into drills during the media-access portion of Wednesday's session, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Christian Watson (hamstring) also was held out to begin Week 17 prep, while Jayden Reed (toe/chest) did log some on-field work. With question marks throughout the Packers' receiving corps, the overall situation will continue to be monitored to see who among the trio may be available Sunday at Minnesota.
Dec 24, 2023
Ruled out of Sunday's game
Wicks (chest) won't return to Sunday's game in Carolina, Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks took a hit as he was tumbling into the end zone at the end of a 21-yard touchdown catch just before halftime. Afterward, he was seen in visible pain on the sideline, seeming to favor the right side of his chest, and team doctors ultimately wouldn't clear him to reenter the contest. Wicks thus will finish Week 16 with two catches (on two targets) for 29 yards and the aforementioned score. The Packers' receiving corps is banged up at the moment, with both Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) inactive, so Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton are the remaining healthy options at the position.
Dec 24, 2023
Suffers chest injury Sunday
Wicks sustained a chest injury during Sunday's game at Carolina.
ANALYSIS
Wicks hauled in a 21-yard touchdown with 49 seconds remaining before halftime, but he also sustained a hit from a Panthers defender as he tumbled into the end zone. As the Packers returned to the sideline for the second half, Wicks was in visible discomfort on the bench. If he joins Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) as unavailable for the rest of Sunday, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton will be Green Bay's available wide receivers.
Dec 24, 2023
Suiting up in Week 16
Wicks (ankle) is active for Sunday's contest at Carolina, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks came out of the Packers' Week 14 loss at the Giants with an ankle injury, and while he's operated with practice restrictions the last two weeks, he's also been able to play through the pain. During last Sunday's defeat to the Buccaneers, the rookie fifth-round pick turned a career-high 78 percent snap share into six catches (on seven targets) for 97 yards. With Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) both sidelined, Wicks and Romeo Doubs are the best bets among Green Bay wide receivers to produce Week 16.
Dec 24, 2023
Expected to suit up Sunday
Wicks (ankle), who is officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against Carolina, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks' availability is more crucial than usual for Green Bay, with Christian Watson (hamstring) listed as doubtful and rookie slot man Jayden Reed (toe) questionable after missing practice Friday. Himself a rookie fifth-round pick, Wicks stepped up to secure six of nine targets for 97 yards versus the Buccaneers in Week 15 with Watson sidelined. An ankle injury limited Wicks in Week 16 practices, but things appear to be trending positively. Official word on his status will come 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff time.
Dec 22, 2023
Listed as questionable
Wicks (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The fifth-round pick has done well with his limited chances as a rookie and really stepped up last week with a 6-97-0 receiving line on seven targets while filling in for Christian Watson (hamstring) in a 34-20 loss to Tampa Bay. Wicks picked up an ankle injury along the way but managed limited practice participation throughout the week, while Watson is listed as doubtful after missing practice Wednesday and Thursday. Slot man Jayden Reed (toe) also is listed as questionable, and he seems less likely than Wicks to play after missing practice Wednesday and Thursday. We might not have a great feel for Green Bay's plans at wide receiver until inactive lists are released 90 minutes before the 1:00 ET kickoff this Sunday.
Dec 21, 2023
Limited again Thursday
Wicks (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is dealing with an ankle issue for a second consecutive week, but he stepped up with Christian Watson (hamstring) sidelined for this past Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, hauling in six of seven targets for 97 yards. While Wicks actually is practicing this week, Watson and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) have yet to mix into drills, leaving significant question marks for the Packers' receiving corps. Ultimately, Friday's injury report may clear some of them up ahead of Sunday's game at Carolina.
Dec 20, 2023
Remains limited at practice
Wicks (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks had the busiest day of his brief career to date this past Sunday against the Buccaneers with Christian Watson (hamstring) missing his second game in a row. Overall, Wicks earned 47 of 60 offensive snaps and reeled in six of seven targets for 97 yards, connecting with quarterback Jordan Love for three plays of 20-plus yards. Having said that, the ankle issue that capped Wicks to two limited sessions last week has followed him into Week 16 prep. Wicks is healthier than Watson and Jayden Reed (toe/chest), both of whom didn't practice Wednesday. If one or both of Watson and Reed aren't able to suit up Sunday in Carolina, Wicks likely would join Romeo Doubs as the Packers' top options at wide receiver.
Dec 17, 2023
Paces pass catchers in loss
Wicks secured six of seven targets for 97 yards in the Packers' 34-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The rookie became the latest young Packers pass catcher to enjoy a breakout effort, with the fifth-round pick setting new career highs in receptions and receiving yards. Wicks now has two 90+ yard tallies in the last four games overall, and he could have a chance at another busy afternoon in Week 16 road battle versus the Panthers if fellow rookie Jayden Reed (toe) and/or Christian Watson (hamstring) miss the contest.
Dec 17, 2023
Playing in Week 15
Wicks (ankle) is listed as active Sunday against the Buccaneers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was believed to be dealing with a high-ankle issue in the wake of this past Monday's loss at the Giants, but he managed to log back-to-back capped sessions to wrap up Week 15 prep, which was enough for him to avoid inactive status Sunday. With Christian Watson (hamstring) sidelined again, Wicks will be among the wide receivers available to quarterback Jordan Love along with Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks and Malik Heath. In Green Bay's previous six games, Wicks had at least four targets on each occasion on his way to a 17-282-0 line on 27 targets.
Dec 15, 2023
Questionable for Sunday
Wicks (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
There was a belief from the Packers that Wicks emerged from Monday's road loss to the Giants with a high-ankle injury, according to Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay. Wicks' listed DNP on Wednesday's practice estimate thus wasn't a surprise, but he then capped the week with a pair of limited sessions, putting himself in a position to play Sunday. Fellow wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) is doubtful for Week 15 action, so Wicks could have a larger role alongside Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (ankle) is he's able to join them as active.
Dec 14, 2023
Limited practice Thursday
Wicks (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks started Week 15 prep with a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report, but he mixed back into drills one day later despite dealing with what the Packers thought was a high-ankle injury after Monday's defeat at the Giants, per Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay. If Wicks has such a sprain, he typically would be in line for an absence of some type, but his ability to practice Thursday may mean he has a chance to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers. With Christian Watson (hamstring) not logging any on-field work so far this week and Jayden Reed (ankle) limited, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure currently are the only healthy wide receivers on the Packers' active roster.
Dec 13, 2023
Listed as DNP on Wednesday
Wicks (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
ANALYSIS
According to Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay, Wicks is believed to be dealing with a high-ankle injury in the wake of Monday's loss at the Giants, so his listed DNP to begin Week 15 prep doesn't come as much of a surprise. Wicks may be hard-pressed to log any on-field work at all Thursday and/or Friday, after which the Packers may make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. Fellow wide receivers Christian Watson (hamstring, DNP) and Jayden Reed (ankle, LP) also made appearances on Wednesday's injury report, leaving just Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure as Green Bay's healthy options at the position at the moment.
Dec 12, 2023
May have high-ankle injury
Wicks said after Monday's loss to the Giants that the team thinks he is dealing with a high-ankle injury, Lauren Helmbrecht of WFRV Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks exited in the fourth quarter of the loss and was deemed questionable to return, but he didn't end up re-entering the contest. His comments after the game don't provide an optimistic outlook on the injury, as high-ankle issues often result in multi-week absences. Of course, the wideout will undergo further evaluation to the confirm the nature and extent of the injury, and his participation (or lack thereof) during practice this week should provide a clearer picture of his status for next Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
Dec 11, 2023
Questionable to return to Week 14
Wicks suffered an ankle injury in Monday's game versus the Giants and is questionable to return.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was deemed questionable in the fourth quarter, so he doesn't have much time to return to the contest. Prior to the injury, the wideout caught two of six targets for 20 yards. Malik Heath could see more snaps for the remainder of the game if Wicks isn't able to return.
Dec 5, 2023
Reels in three passes
Wicks was targeted four times and caught three passes for 43 yards in Sunday's 27-19 victory over the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
The 43 yards Wicks racked up were his fewest over his last four appearances, but they were still the third most accumulated by any Packers pass catcher in Week 13. Wicks remains fourth on the depth chart at his position, but he is producing when given the opportunity, and he could get a few more of those in Week 14 if fellow wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) is unable to go.
Dec 3, 2023
Back in action Sunday
Wicks (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks missed the Packers' Week 12 win at Detroit on Thanksgiving due to a concussion and a knee injury. While he made it through the protocol for head injuries as of last Monday, he remained limited in practice during Week 13 prep as a result of the other concern. Now that he's been cleared to play again, Wicks will serve as Green Bay's fourth wide receiver behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
Dec 1, 2023
Questionable for Sunday
Wicks (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Chiefs, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks suffered a concussion and a knee issue during the Packers' Week 11 win against the Chargers, keeping him out of a Thanksgiving game at Detroit. He put the head injury behind him as of Monday, when coach Matt LaFleur said he made it through all five phases of the protocol. But the knee concern has persisted and capped Wicks to limited showings this week. The statuses of both Jayden Reed (chest) and Wicks are up in the air for Week 13 and won't be confirmed, one way or another, until approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.
Nov 30, 2023
Another limited session
Wicks (knee) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks emerged from Week 11 with a concussion and a knee injury, and while he put the former behind him by completing the protocol for head injuries by Monday, he's been operating with practice restrictions this week due to the latter. Prior to sitting out the Packers' Thanksgiving matchup with the Lions, Wicks was making some headway in Green Bay's passing game, hauling in 12 of 17 targets for 219 yards over the previous four contests. If he's able to play Sunday versus the Chiefs, Wicks again would serve as the team's No. 4 WR behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
Nov 29, 2023
Limited in practice Wednesday
Wicks was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Wicks sustained a concussion near the end of the Packers' Week 11 win against the Chargers, and a knee injury also appeared on the team's Week 12 practice reports, capping him to one limited showing at last Wednesday's walkthrough. In the end, he didn't have enough time to get through the protocol for head injuries, but coach Matt LaFleur revealed Monday that Wicks had cleared its five phases, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. Having said that, the knee issue still is impacting Wicks' on-field work, so his status will continue to be watched as the weekend draws closer.
Nov 27, 2023
Moves past protocols
Wicks has cleared concussion protocols as of Monday, according to head coach Matt LaFleur, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks suffered the concussion in Week 11 against the Chargers and missed the team's Week 12 win over the Lions after logging just one limited walkthrough practice. The rookie receiver should have no restrictions to his practice level this week and be able to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs.
Nov 23, 2023
Sitting out Thursday
Wicks (concussion/knee) is inactive for Thursday's game at Detroit, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Considering Wicks was listed as limited only one time during Week 12 prep, he was a long shot to clear the concussion protocol on a short week. With the rookie fifth-round pick sidelined, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton will be the Packers' options at wide receiver behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
Nov 22, 2023
Questionable for Week 12
Wicks (concussion/knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest in Detroit, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
After emerging from Sunday's victory against the Chargers with a concussion and knee injury, Wicks was limited to one capped walkthrough (Wednesday) this week. He thus seems less than questionable to be able to suit up Thursday, but his status won't be clarified until about 90 minutes before a 12:30 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming Wicks doesn't suit up, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton will be the options to serve as the Packers' fourth wide receiver behind the top trio of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
Nov 21, 2023
Remains listed as DNP
Wicks (concussion/knee) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was evaluated for a head injury in the later stages of this past Sunday's win against the Chargers, and he wouldn't have practiced Monday or Tuesday if the Packers had held sessions due to the combination of a concussion and a knee issue. He thus appears unlikely to gain clearance to play Thursday at Detroit, which may be confirmed when Green Bay posts its final Week 12 practice report Wednesday. With Jayden Reed showing up as limited on Tuesday's report due to a chest concern, the team's current healthy wide receivers are Christian Watson (shoulder, FP on Tuesday), Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure.
Nov 20, 2023
Estimated as non-participant
The Packers gave Wicks (concussion and knee) a non-participant designation for Monday's practice estimate.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is now in the league's concussion protocol and will need to clear it in order to be eligible to return to the field. As it's likely that the rookie fifth-round pick will still be in the protocol for Thursday's game versus Detroit, Malik Heath and Samori Toure could be in line for increased roles.
Nov 19, 2023
Getting concussion check
Wicks is under evaluation for a head injury during Sunday's contest versus the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Wicks made the most of his five targets in Week 11, turning them into three catches for 91 yards. Having said that, he got a concussion check inside of the two-minute warning, so a diagnosis may not be confirmed before Sunday's game concludes.
Nov 13, 2023
Makes mark again
Wicks was targeted four times and caught three passes for 51 yards in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Wicks racked up a career-best 49 receiving yards in Week 9, and the rookie inched past that mark ever so slightly in his latest appearance. He remains the fourth option at the wide receiver position for the Packers, but both his playing time and production have ticked up steadily since Green Bay's Week 6 bye.
Nov 6, 2023
Records season-high 49 yards
Wicks was targeted four times and caught four passes for 49 yards in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Wicks drew four targets for the second time in as many games, and the 49 yards he put up were the most he has accrued in his rookie season. Despite the recent activity he remains pretty clearly Green Bay's fourth option at the wideout spot when everyone is healthy. However, he could bump up a notch against a below-average Steelers pass defense in Week 10 if fellow receiver Christian Watson (upper body) is unable to go.
Oct 30, 2023
Logs two receptions in defeat
Wicks was targeted four times and caught two passes for 28 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Wicks was as active as he had been since Week 3, drawing more looks in Sunday's game alone than he recorded over his three previous appearances. However, he still finished fourth among Packers wideouts in snaps and sixth on the team in targets. Expect him to continue playing a complementary role in Green Bay's offense.
Oct 23, 2023
Makes most of opportunities
Wicks caught one pass for 17 yards, rushed once for one yard and completed one pass for 14 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Wicks played less than half as many snaps as three other Packers wideouts, but he did make a couple plays while he was out there. He recorded six receptions for 85 yards and a score across Weeks 2 and 3 but has totaled just two receptions for 27 yards in three games since.
Oct 10, 2023
Reduced role in Week 5
Wicks was targeted once and caught one pass for 10 yards in Monday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Wicks played at least half the snaps in each of Green Bay's first four games, but with fellow wideout Christian Watson handling a starter's workload in Week 5 for the first time this season, Wicks was on the field for fewer than a quarter of the plays run by the Packers' offense. Wicks remains the fourth option at his position on the depth chart, but that's not a favorable spot for fantasy production.
Sep 25, 2023
Draws career-high six targets
Wicks was targeted six times and caught four passes for 45 yards in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Wicks did not reach the end zone like he did in Week 2, but the rookie did set career highs for targets, receptions, yardage and snaps played. His opportunities will presumably take a hit when fellow wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) is ready to go, but he has solidified his spot on the depth chart behind Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed.
Sep 17, 2023
Scores first touchdown
Wicks caught two of four targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Wicks extended Green Bay's lead by breaking a tackle en route to a 32-yard touchdown during the third quarter. While that marked the rookie fifth-rounder's first end-zone trip, it wasn't enough for the Packers to avoid a late defeat. Still, in leading his team in receiving yards Sunday, Wicks turned in a commendable performance with usual top wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) sidelined once again.
Sep 11, 2023
Leads Packers wideouts in snaps
Wicks was targeted twice but did not catch a pass in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Wicks made only a blip in the box score in his first appearance as a professional, but it should be noted that the 37 snaps he played were five more than any other Green Bay wideout. Wicks did not start Sunday's contest and is no higher than the fourth option at his position when everyone is healthy, but both of his targets came well before the game had been decided, so it appears the rookie is getting a chance to carve out a role.
Sep 7, 2023
Should be available at Chicago
Wicks (hamstring) was a full participant at practice Thursday ahead of Sunday's game at the Bears, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks had been limited by a hamstring issue since Green Bay's second preseason game, but it looks like he'll be ready to go when the Packers go to Chicago on Sunday. He could be in line for an expanded role right off the bat too, as Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs are each still dealing with hamstring injuries of their own.
Sep 6, 2023
Limited participant in practice
Wicks (hamstring) was only a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wicks is still recovering from a hamstring injury suffered during the team's second preseason game and will hope to be good to go for Sunday's opener against Chicago. With both Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs also dealing with hamstring injuries, the Packers could find themselves extremely thin at the position to start the season and Wicks could be in line for a bigger role if healthy.
Aug 19, 2023
Injures hamstring Saturday
Wicks left Saturday's preseason game against the Patriots with a hamstring injury, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
After catching three passes for 68 yards on four targets in the preseason opener last week, Wicks wasn't targeted against New England prior to leaving with his injury. The fifth-round rookie is expected to win one of the final receiver spots in Green Bay.
Aug 12, 2023
Gets work in preseason debut
Wicks was targeted four times and caught three passes for 68 yards in Friday's 36-19 preseason victory over the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Wicks missed time early in training camp with a concussion, but the rookie fifth-rounder got in over a week of practice prior to Friday's contest, and he caught a couple long passes -- including a 47-yarder -- in his professional debut. Wicks is listed as a second-string wideout on the depth chart on Green Bay's official website, and as things stand he is competing with Samori Toure for the fourth spot in the pecking order.
Aug 3, 2023
Returns to practice
Wicks (concussion) returned to practice Thursday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wicks suffered a concussion last Thursday and has been out of action since. Now healthy, the rookie receiver will continue working to move his way up Green Bay's positional depth chart during training camp.
Jul 27, 2023
Absent from camp
Wicks (concussion) did not take part in Packers' camp Thursday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 fifth-round pick will continue to compete for playing time in a crowded yet young and unproven Green Bay wide receiver room. In his junior season at Virginia, Wicks caught 57 passes for 1203 yards and nine touchdowns. Don't be surprised if the rookie makes his way onto the field as the third or fourth wideout for the Packers once he recovers.
Apr 29, 2023
Going to Green Bay
The Packers selected Wicks in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 159th overall.
ANALYSIS
Wicks (6-foot-1, 206 pounds) is a well-built receiver with a standout catch radius (32 and 3/8-inch arms), but the Virginia product has a somewhat uneven prospect profile despite a few definite strengths. It appears that Wicks has some notable amount of innate ability as a downfield target, as he turned 95 targets into 57 receptions for 1,203 yards and nine touchdowns (12.7 YPT, 21.1 YPC) in 2021, but it's not clear whether he's fast enough to access the same field depths in the NFL. Wicks ran a 4.62 40, which generally isn't threatening past the chains from a boundary position, but if Wicks can manage to reach the depths where his skill set shows up then his 39-inch vertical and 130-inch broad jump confirm the idea that Wicks will always be tough to defend at the rim. To begin his NFL career Wicks will likely compete for the WR4 role behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and second-round rookie pick Jayden Reed, but it's worth monitoring his development from there.
