Who Should I Start? Josh Reynolds or Dontayvion Wicks

New York Jets wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hip) was placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a hip injury in the team's Week 8 thriller against the Cincinnati Bengals. Reynolds is eligible to return in Week 13 against the Falcons. The 30-year-old was having a quiet season in a bad Jets passing attack, catching 11 of 21 targets for 101 yards in five games. With star wideout Garrett Wilson (knee) also injured, the Jets will be relying on a wide receiver crew consisting of two newly acquired wideouts in John Metchie III and Adonai Mitchell, along with Arian Smith and Tyler Johnson.

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.
