Kayshon Boutte Could Have a Smaller Role in Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 4:00 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has multiple catches in each of his last five games, but he hasn't gone off as a regular fantasy producer since joining the Texans in a trade just before the season began. His window of opportunity to produce could be closing, with Marvin Harrison Jr. also added via trade and Tank Dell (knee) expected to make his return soon from an extended absence. Boutte's snap share dropped to 41% last week in London against the Jaguars and is in danger of sinking even more against the Giants in Week 7 if Dell is active and Harrison plays more. This week, Boutte is only the No. 72 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, making him hard to start in any format despite his big-play potential.

Dontayvion Wicks Ruled Out for Week 8

Friday, October 30, 12:22 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) will miss his second consecutive game after being ruled out for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Washington Commanders, according to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. Wicks did not participate in Wednesday's estimated practice or Thursday's session and remained sidelined Friday. His absence removes another experienced target from Philadelphia's passing attack, with DeVonta Smith (hamstring) also unavailable. Wicks has recorded 19 receptions for 284 yards and one touchdown in six appearances, ranking second on the team in receiving yards. He played 56 of Philadelphia's 61 offensive snaps against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4 while Smith was sidelined, illustrating his importance to the receiving rotation. Makai Lemon should continue handling an expanded role after leading the Eagles with seven receptions against Dallas last week, while Darius Cooper and Hollywood Brown could see additional opportunities.
