Dontayvion Wicks Ruled Out for Third Straight Game

Friday, November 6, 12:30 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the New York Giants after missing practice Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The 25-year-old will miss his third consecutive game, joining DeVonta Smith (hamstring) on the sideline as Joe Milton III prepares for his first NFL start. Wicks recorded 19 receptions for 284 yards and a touchdown across six games before suffering the injury. His absence has pushed Makai Lemon and Darius Cooper into starting roles, with Lemon catching 13 of 17 targets for 124 yards and a touchdown over the past two contests. Lemon remains an intriguing fantasy WR3 or flex option given his increased target volume, although the quarterback change adds uncertainty to Philadelphia's passing attack. The Eagles have a Week 10 bye, making their Week 11 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers Wicks' next opportunity to return.

Denzel Boston News

Denzel Boston Listed as Questionable

Friday, November 13, 8:31 AM

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston (toe) returned to practice on Friday but is listed as questionable to play in Week 10 on Sunday against the hosting Houston Texans, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Head coach Todd Monken said that Boston "moved around pretty good" in practice on Friday and is "trending in the right way" to play this weekend. The 22-year-old second-rounder from Washington picked up a toe injury in the Week 9 overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints last weekend and missed the first two practices of the week. His injury was downplayed earlier in the week, though, and the young pass-catcher appears to be on the right side of questionable for Week 10 action. In last week's loss to the Saints, Boston had six catches on seven targets for a season-high 98 receiving yards while working with quarterback Shedeur Sanders for the first time all year. The move back to Deshaun Watson under center this week after he missed Week 9 due to a concussion could be a concern for Boston's fantasy managers, as well as the less-than-appealing matchup against Houston's defense. Boston has a nice 32-507-3 line in his first nine NFL games, but he could be a boom/bust WR2/3 against the Texans if he is active on Sunday.
