Wicks (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest in Denver, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks followed up back-to-back limited sessions to kick off Week 15 prep with a full practice Friday, indicating that his lingering ankle injury likely isn't much of an issue any longer. With all of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed (shoulder), Matthew Golden (wrist) and Bo Melton also in the clear for Sunday, Wicks' workload is up in the air, especially after he earned just six offensive snaps and no targets during a Week 14 win against the Bears.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Remains limited in practice
Rotowire
Wicks (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.
For a second week in a row, Wicks is enduring practice restrictions due to an ankle injury, which capped him to six snaps and no targets this past Sunday versus the Bears. The Packers have three other wide receivers also limited this week: Jayden Reed (shoulder), Matthew Golden (wrist) and Savion Williams (foot). Friday's practice report will unveil who among the quartet will head into the weekend without designations for Sunday's game at Denver.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Bothered by ankle
Rotowire
Wicks (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Wicks was listed with an ankle injury last week but didn't have a designation for Sunday's eventual win over Chicago. He played just 10 percent of Green Bay's offensive snaps in the contest -- one week after scoring a pair of TDs against the Lions -- but that was partially a product of Jayden Reed returning from injured reserve. It is possible that Wicks would've played more without the ankle injury but probably not enough to warrant fantasy consideration.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Slowed by injury
Rotowire
Wicks was limited by an ankle injury in Sunday's 28-21 victory over the Bears, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com.
Wicks was not listed on Green Bay's final injury report for Week 14, but he played only six snaps due to the ankle injury that slowed him last week as well. The Packers are as healthy at the wide receiver position as they have been in a while, so even when back at 100 percent, it will be tough for Wicks to come anywhere close to replicating the 94 yards and two scores he racked up against the Lions in Week 13.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Cleared to face Chicago
Rotowire
Wicks (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks was a limited participant in all three of Green Bay's practices this week but has the green light to suit up for Sunday's pivotal NFC North matchup. Matthew Golden (wrist) went through the same practice regimen but is listed as questionable. Wicks capitalized on Golden's absence against the Lions on Thanksgiving Day, as the former set season highs with six catches for 94 yards and scored his first two touchdowns of the campaign.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Dealing with ankle injury
Rotowire
Wicks (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Wednesday.
Since suffering a calf injury Week 7 at Arizona, Wicks sat out Weeks 8 and 9 and otherwise was listed on Packers practice reports with that health concern. This week, calf has been swapped for ankle, leaving his status up in the air ahead of Sunday's game versus the Bears. Fellow WRs Matthew Golden (wrist) and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) also were limited Wednesday, while Savion Williams (foot) didn't practice, which means Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Bo Melton are the healthy options at the position on the active roster at the moment.
Wicks doesn't have the rest of season upside that Mitchell does, but he outscored him in Week 13. View him as a touchdown dependent flex and hope the Bears put the Packers in a position to pass the ball a little more in Week 14.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Scores twice in Thanksgiving win
Rotowire
Wicks caught six of seven targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions. He also rushed once for six yards.
Wicks recorded a 22-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter and scored a one-yard touchdown in the third quarter. He also maintained his concentration despite losing his shoe to secure a game-sealing 16-yard catch in the fourth quarter, which converted on fourth down for the Packers and allowed them to run out the clock with a pair of kneel downs on the following two plays. That final reception also helped Wicks edge out Christian Watson (80 yards) for the team lead in receiving yards, though Watson led the Packers with 10 targets Thursday. Wicks hadn't scored a regular-season touchdown since Week 16 of the 2024 season, so it remains to be seen if he can build on this Thanksgiving Day breakout when the Packers host the Bears in Week 14.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Still managing calf injury
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) is listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks has managed to play through his calf injury in each of Green Bay's last three games, but he now faces a short week of prep ahead of Thursday's divisional contest against the Lions. Both Matthew Golden (wrist) and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) also are listed as limited Monday and could be candidates to retake the field on Thanksgiving Day, though the latter playmaker officially remains on IR. If Golden and/or Reed remain sidelined, though, Wicks will get a chance to handle expanded target volume in Detroit, provided he's able to suit up.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Two catches in Week 12 win
Rotowire
Wicks brought in two of four targets for 32 yards in the Packers' 23-6 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Wicks finished with the second-most receiving yards and targets on the day for the Packers despite his modest output in both categories. The third-year pro has dealt with a lingering calf issue and has missed two games overall, but Wicks does have multiple catches in seven of the nine games he's appeared in. He'll have a chance at more volume during a Week 13 Thanksgiving Day showdown against the Lions that could develop into a high-scoring affair.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Status in question for Sunday
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Among seven wide receivers listed on the Packers' Week 12 injury report, Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist) and Bo Melton (shoulder) don't have designations, while Wicks, Matthew Golden (shoulder/wrist) and Savion Williams (foot) are listed as questionable, and Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder, IR) was ruled out. Wicks' status will be clarified approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he's available he's mustered just an 18-181-0 line on 30 targets across eight appearances this season.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Limited in practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) was limited at practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Wicks managed to play through his calf injury Week 11, when he secured one of two targets for nine yards during Green Bay's win over the Giants, but he's still managing the issue ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against the Vikings. He will have two more chances to upgrade to full practice reps before the Packers are forced to decide whether to tag Wicks with an injury designation for Week 12.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Limited to one reception
Rotowire
Wicks was targeted twice and caught one pass for nine yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants.
Wicks finished third among Packers wideouts in snaps, but he saw only a quarter of the season-high eight targets he drew in Week 10. He's getting some opportunities, but he has racked up only 18 receptions and 181 yards through eight appearances this season, and his playing time will likely take a hit when Jayden Reed (collarbone/foot, IR) is ready to rejoin the fray.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Cleared for Sunday
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Christian Watson (knee/hamstring) and Romeo Doubs (chest) also avoided injury designations, while Matthew Golden (shoulder) is listed as questionable. Wicks seems most in danger of losing snaps to Golden if the rookie returns after missing Week 10.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Remains limited in practice
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.
For four weeks in a row, Wicks has been listed with the calf injury that sidelined him Weeks 8 and 9. In his return to action Monday against the Eagles, he hauled in four of eight targets for 38 yards on a 65 percent snap share, which is more or less in line with his typical workload. The Packers continue to deal with a number of injuries in the receiving corps -- also, Christian Watson (knee/hamstring), Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot) -- all of whom were limited Thursday. The statuses of all four players may be clarified ahead of Sunday's game at the Giants once Green Bay posts its final Week 11 practice report Friday.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Still dealing with calf issue
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Wicks sat out Weeks 8 and 9 due to a calf injury but returned to action Monday against the Eagles, hauling in four of eight targets for 38 yards while playing 67 percent of the snaps. His return coincided with an absence from Matthew Golden (shoulder), and both of them plus Savion Williams (foot) logged capped sessions Wednesday, while Romeo Doubs (chest) was listed as full. In the end, the state of the Packers' receiving corps is up in the air ahead of Sunday's contest at the Giants.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Busy night in return
Rotowire
Wicks hauled in four of eight targets for 38 yards in the Packers' 10-7 loss to the Eagles on Monday night.
Wicks' return from a two-game absence due to a calf injury saw him log a team-high number of targets while also finishing as the runner-up in receptions and receiving yards. Matthew Golden's (shoulder) inactive status and Romeo Doubs' exit with a chest injury both helped Wicks' cause Monday night, and the latter could be in for an expanded role again in a Week 11 road matchup against the Giants if at least one of his two teammates is sidelined.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Suiting up Monday
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) is active for Monday's game against the Eagles, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks is returning to action for the first time since he injured his calf Week 7 at Arizona. With rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden (shoulder) inactive Monday, Wicks likely will be a key part of Green Bay's passing attack, as only Romeo Doubs didn't endure some type of practice restrictions during Week 10 prep. All of Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath (hip) and Savion Williams (foot) also are available along with Wicks and Doubs.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Status in question for Monday
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Eagles, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks is aiming for his first game action since Week 7, when he injured his calf during a win at Arizona. He wasn't able to log more than a limited session this week, leaving his status for Week 10 up in the air. Fellow WRs Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot) also are questionable, while Christian Watson (knee) and Malik Heath (hip) don't have designations. It remains to be seen who among Golden, Wicks and Williams are available along with Romeo Doubs, Watson and Heath on Monday.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Won't play in Week 9
Rotowire
Wicks (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks has missed the last two weeks of practice due to the calf injury that he sustained during a Week 7 win at Arizona. He'll now sit out a second contest in a row as a result, making his next chance for game action Monday, Nov. 10 versus the Eagles. The Packers' Week 9 receiving corps will be composed of Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath and Savion Williams.
