Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Dontayvion Wicks

Thursday, November 20, 5:17 PM

The Buffalo Bills elevated wide receiver Gabe Davis to the 53-man active roster for Thursday night's game against the Houston Texans after placing receiver Mecole Hardman (calf) on Injured Reserve, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Hardman was injured in his season debut with Buffalo in Sunday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will now be forced to miss at least four games. The 27-year-old won't be eligible to return until Dec. 14 against the division-rival New England Patriots. Davis also made his season debut last weekend with Buffalo, catching three of his four targets for 40 yards in the 44-32 win. Veteran Curtis Samuel (elbow, neck) is also out for Thursday night, and second-year wideout Keon Coleman could be a healthy scratch for a second straight week. Meanwhile, Khalil Shakir missed practice time with a personal issue this week, and tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is out. Davis could have a bigger role in Week 12, albeit against the best defense in the NFL.

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.
