Who Should I Start? Dontayvion Wicks or Tre Tucker

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.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker had a modest outing in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns, recording just three catches for 28 yards. However, Tucker was targeted 10 times and has now earned 18 targets over the last two weeks. With the Raiders having traded Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars at the trade deadline, Tucker now profiles as the clear WR1 in Las Vegas. The team's overall offensive struggles hold down the 24-year-old's upside to some degree. However, if he continues to earn close to double-digit targets every week, Tucker should see his overall production spike. In any PPR fantasy league with 12 or more teams where he's not already rostered, Tucker should be a waiver-wire target heading into a Week 13 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers.
