Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (concussion) is not participating in Wednesday's practice session, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Wicks suffered a concussion in the second quarter during last Saturday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens and was eventually ruled out for the rest of the game. The 24-year-old is trending towards missing his third game of the season after opening this week with a DNP. He's had a relatively quiet season in a crowded Packers wide receiver room, catching 30 of his 46 targets for 332 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games. Both of his scores came on Thanksgiving Day against the Detroit Lions, when he recorded a season high of six receptions for 94 yards. The third-year wideout has been below 50 receiving yards in every other game this season. If Wicks is ruled out for the regular-season finale versus the Minnesota Vikings, rookie Matthew Golden and Bo Melton should see more opportunities.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Wicks was forced to exit near the end of the second quarter with concussion symptoms. The staff has evaluated Wicks and ruled him out for the second half of this contest. Wicks hauled in his lone target for seven yards before being forced to exit. His absence should mean expanded roles for Bo Melton and Matthew Golden. It's unclear if Wicks will be available for Week 18, but regardless, he hasn't been a consistent fantasy option this season.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (concussion) is currently questionable to return for Saturday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Wicks was forced to exit the game just before halftime and will undergo a concussion evaluation. Before leaving, Wicks hauled in his lone target for seven yards. His absence would likely mean expanded roles for Matthew Golden and Bo Melton. When healthy, Wicks hasn't been much of a factor anyway, with three receptions over his last three games heading into Saturday's contest. Fantasy managers should check back for another update after halftime.
Dec 27, 2025 9:38 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Christian Watson (chest, shoulder) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) are active for Saturday's Week 16 contest against the Chicago Bears. Both players had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. Watson has emerged as the Packers' No. 1 receiver with 28 catches, 481 yards, and five touchdowns through eight games. Since making his season debut in Week 8, he ranks as the overall WR9 in full-PPR leagues. He continues to operate as a high-end WR2 in fantasy football. Meanwhile, Wicks has been productive in a depth role, catching 27 passes for 313 yards and a pair of touchdowns across a dozen contests. His presence on Saturday is key for the Packers, but he doesn't offer much value in fantasy football. Wicks can be benched or dropped to waivers in most redraft leagues.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was a non-participant during Tuesday's walkthrough practice. Wicks was on the injury report last week with a lingering ankle issue. He ended up playing on Sunday but was ineffective with one catch for six yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Wicks has been a non-factor since his two-touchdown performance against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day. The 24-year-old could see an increased role in Week 16 with Christian Watson (chest, shoulder) banged up to begin the week. The absence of both wideouts could mean bigger roles for Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and rookie Matthew Golden. Fantasy managers will need to monitor the Packers' injury report throughout the week ahead of the Week 16 rematch against the Chicago Bears on Saturday.
Dec 16, 2025 7:14 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Wicks was limited during the first two practices of the week before getting in a full session on Friday. He should be back in the mix this Sunday, but he won't draw an easy matchup. The Broncos have allowed the second-fewest yards per target to wide receivers this season. The Packers also have a ton of mouths to feed at the receiver position with Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, and rookie Matthew Golden all healthy heading into this game. Wicks had an epic two-touchdown game during the Thanksgiving Day win over the Detroit Lions. That performance put him on the fantasy radar, but he has quickly fallen off as the Packers get healthy. Fantasy managers can leave Wicks on the bench in Week 15 after he wasn't targeted at all last week in the win over the Bears.
Dec 12, 2025 9:17 PM EST
ESPN's Rob Demovsky says that both Green Bay Packers wide receivers Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Matthew Golden (wrist) were limited due to their injuries in the Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears, allowing Bo Melton to move into the No. 4 receiver spot. Melton caught a big 45-yard touchdown pass on his only reception of the day. Wicks only played 11% of the offensive snaps on Sunday, with Golden playing 9% of the snaps. Wicks wasn't targeted at all, while Golden was unable to secure his lone target on the day at Lambeau Field. Both Wicks and Golden figure to be on the field more if they can put their respective injuries behind them, but Green Bay's receiving corps is now as healthy as it has been all year with the return of Jayden Reed. Wicks' six-catch, 94-yard, two-touchdown performance on Thanksgiving will most likely end up being an outlier performance in 2025.
Dec 8, 2025 12:44 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) is off the injury report with three limited practices and looks to keep his run going after his best game of the season in Week 13 as the Packers host the Chicago Bears. Wicks is fresh off his Thanksgiving game against the Detroit Lions, where he was the overall WR3 for fantasy, notching 94 yards on six receptions while bringing in two touchdowns. While Wicks has been on the field much more in recent weeks, with at least 69% routes per dropback in the past three weeks, he's a bit behind in the pecking order for Green Bay's offensive production. Those in deep fantasy leagues may find Wicks useful as a flex option in the Packers' Week 14 game against Chicago, but typical 12-team formats may have more consistent fantasy options than Wicks this week.
Dec 5, 2025 4:27 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. He has now been limited on back-to-back days. The 24-year-old is coming off a breakout game on Thanksgiving in which he caught six of seven targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns. Wicks isn't alone on the injury report, as fellow wide receivers Matthew Golden (wrist), Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder), and Savion Williams (foot) are all banged-up, too. He can be benched in leagues with 14 or fewer teams ahead of Week 14 against the Chicago Bears, despite Chicago allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.
Dec 4, 2025 11:27 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) had by far his best game of the season in last Thursday's Thanksgiving Day win over the Detroit Lions, catching six of his seven targets for a season-high 94 yards and his first two touchdowns of the year. The 24-year-old injured his calf in Week 7 and missed Weeks 8 and 9. He's now listed on Green Bay's Week 14 injury report with an ankle injury, and he was limited in Wednesday's practice. It's something to keep an eye on for fantasy managers who are considering streaming Wicks as a WR4/flex against a Bears defense that has allowed the eighth-most half-PPR points to opposing WRs. Wicks will be very boom/bust as he looks for a second straight big game. Keep in mind that Wicks had not gone over 44 receiving yards in a game this year before his outburst last Thursday. Additionally, both Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) and rookie Matthew Golden (wrist) may be active in Week 14, which would mean more competition for targets for Wicks.
Dec 4, 2025 12:54 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was a limited participant in practice during Wednesday's session. Wicks appears to have suffered a minor ankle injury during his epic Thanksgiving Day performance. He hauled in six of his seven targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Detroit Lions. Wicks has been basically a non-factor all season long outside his big performance last week. Especially with Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) getting close to returning from Injured Reserve, Wicks' Week 13 performance could very well end up being an outlier in 2025. Rookie Matthew Golden (wrist) returning will also negatively impact Wicks' target share down the stretch. Despite last week's standout performance, Wicks should be considered a boom/bust WR4/flex for fantasy managers.
Dec 3, 2025 9:51 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks is fresh off a Thanksgiving game in Week 13, where he was the WR3 for fantasy. Wicks put up his best game of the season, notching 94 yards on six receptions while bringing in two touchdowns in their win over the Lions. The Packers' pass-catching carousel seems to turn and turn, featuring different wide receivers heading up their production throughout the season. While Wicks has been on the field much more in recent weeks, a logjam is coming soon. Jayden Reed is poised to return to the Packers' lineup soon, as is Matthew Golden. Christian Watson has been excellent over the past several weeks, and Romeo Doubs remains a constant as well. Unfortunately, Wicks' Week 13 performance is likely the exception rather than the rule. Those in deep fantasy leagues may find Wicks useful as a flex option in the Packers' Week 14 game against Chicago, but typical 12-team formats may have more consistent fantasy options than Wicks this week.
Dec 2, 2025 2:29 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks posted his best game of the season against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, recording six catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets. Wicks scored for the first time in 10 games this season, and more than doubled his previous season high of 44 receiving yards, which came back in Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. The six receptions also matched a career high for the 24-year-old wideout and played a key role in Green Bay pulling out the win. After having major drop issues last season, Wicks has only dropped one pass on 41 targets this season and came down with multiple tough catches against the Lions, including a crucial contested 16-yard snag on fourth down to seal the victory with less than two minutes left in the game. Wicks is emerging as a reliable target for quarterback Jordan Love and could continue to see more opportunities moving forward.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) continues to be limited at practice for the second straight day this week on Tuesday due to an ongoing calf issue, according to Eric Woodyard of ESPN. Wicks has been on the team's injury report for the last three weeks with a calf injury, but he has managed to play through it. The 24-year-old should be out there again this Thursday on Thanksgiving Day against the division-rival Detroit Lions, but he's purely a deep-league dart throw, at best. That will be especially true if both Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) and rookie Matthew Golden (wrist) return from their injuries this week. Wicks scored nine times in his first two years in the NFL with Green Bay, but he's still searching for his first touchdown through 12 weeks of the 2025 season. He has 20 catches for 213 yards on 34 targets in nine games.
Nov 25, 2025 6:19 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) is officially active for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. The 24-year-old should occupy a larger role with rookie receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) ruled out for this divisional battle. Wicks has 18 catches for 181 yards through eight games this season. However, he has come on particularly strong in his last two contests, tallying 10 targets and five receptions during that span. Still, he's off the fantasy radar for now, ranking as the overall WR73 in RotoBaller's Week 12 fantasy rankings.
Nov 23, 2025 11:40 AM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) are both listed as questionable for the team's Week 12 contest on Sunday against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Wicks was limited in practice all week, while Williams had a limited session on Thursday sandwiched around two DNPs on Wednesday and Friday. Receivers Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist), and Bo Melton (shoulder) have been cleared, while rookie Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) is also questionable. Even if the 24-year-old Wicks is cleared to play, fantasy managers will have a tough time convincing themselves he's worth a starting lineup spot in fantasy football. Wicks has just 18 receptions on the year on 30 targets for 181 yards and no touchdowns.
Nov 21, 2025 8:24 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) was limited in practice all week with a calf injury, but he was removed from Friday's final injury report and will be active on Sunday on the road at MetLife Stadium in Week 11 to take on the New York Giants, according to Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. Even with injuries plaguing Green Bay's receiving corps throughout the season, Wicks has yet to find the end zone in 2025 in his third year in the league after scoring nine touchdowns in 2023 and 2024 combined. However, he was targeted a season-high eight times in Monday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, with rookie Matthew Golden (hamstring) sidelined and Romeo Doubs (chest) leaving the game due to injury. The 24-year-old caught four of those targets for just 38 yards. Golden could miss another game this weekend, but both Doubs and Christian Watson (hamstring, knee) will play, which will make Wicks a hard sell in fantasy as a flex play, despite the good matchup.
Nov 14, 2025 5:42 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Dontayvion Wicks (calf), Savion Williams (foot), and Malik Heath (hip) are all active for the Monday Night Football game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Mike Spofford of Packers.com. Rookie first-round wideout Matthew Golden is out with a shoulder injury, so Wicks has the best chance of seeing elevated targets in three-wide sets on Monday next to Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson with Golden sidelined. It will be Wicks' first game since injuring his calf in the Week 7 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Despite Wicks' expected larger role on Monday night, the 24-year-old will still be a boom/bust DFS play against Philly. In six games played in 2025, Wicks has only 13 receptions for 134 yards and is still searching for his first trip to paydirt.
Nov 10, 2025 7:14 PM EST
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday Night Football against the Philadelphia Eagles. Wicks was a limited participant in every day of practice this week, which is a positive sign considering he hasn't practiced in roughly three weeks. The 24-year-old has missed the last two games, but is trending in the right direction to play in Week 10 against the Eagles. Wicks could see more opportunities behind Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson if rookie Matthew Golden (shoulder) is unable to play. Wicks has played a reduced role in six games this season, catching 13 of his 20 targets for 134 yards and no touchdowns.
Nov 8, 2025 5:05 PM EST
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) will be limited in Thursday's practice, according to Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. Wicks injured his calf in the Week 7 win over the Arizona Cardinals and hasn't practiced or played since, so the fact that he's back on the field on Thursday is a sign that he'll have a chance to return for the Monday night showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10. The Packers lost tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) for the season in their Week 9 upset loss to the Carolina Panthers, so there will be more targets to go around in Green Bay's passing game moving forward. However, the 24-year-old Wicks will still be a boom/bust fantasy option with limited volume if he's able to return this week. Despite injuries to Jayden Reed (collarbone) and Christian Watson, Wicks has only 13 catches for 134 yards and no touchdowns in his six games in 2025.
