Who Should I Start? Dontayvion Wicks or Luther Burden III

Monday, November 10, 7:14 PM

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.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III has been a playmaker in his limited opportunity this season, catching 16 of his 18 targets for 222 yards and a touchdown to go with two rushes for six yards in eight games this season. Burden is seeing his reps increase as the season progresses and posted season highs in both snaps and routes in Chicago's Week 10 win over the New York Giants. The rookie second-rounder played 57.6% of the snaps, his first game with a snap share above 50%, and ran 46.3% of the team's routes. Head coach Ben Johnson said that Burden will see more targets moving forward as he continues to get more comfortable in the offense. The rookie out of Missouri had an exciting prospect profile with elite athletic traits and is worth adding off the waiver wire in 12-team leagues to see how his role expands.
