Wicks (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Panthers.
Wicks was limited Wednesday and didn't log any on-field work Thursday, but an uncapped session Friday has him in the clear for Week 6 action. He'll be welcoming back DeVonta Smith (hamstring) to the lineup, though, which may not allow Wicks to reach the 6.5 targets per game that he received during Smith's two-game absence.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Returns to practice Friday
Rotowire
Wicks (hamstring) is practicing Friday, Andrew DiCecco reports.
The extent of Wicks' participation is unclear, but it's at least a good sign relative to Thursday when he didn't practice at all. He was limited Wednesday, after playing through the injury in a Week 5 loss to Jacksonville. Fellow Eagle wideout DeVonta Smith (hamstring) also returned to practice Thursday, but it isn't clear if he has a real shot to play Sunday against the Panthers.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Doesn't practice Thursday
Rotowire
Wicks (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Wicks was limited on the final two Week 5 injury reports due to a hamstring issue, but he didn't carry a designation into the weekend and suited up for this past Sunday's loss to the Jaguars in London, earning an 84 percent snap share and hauling in five of eight targets for 63 yards. He opened this week as limited Wednesday, so his downgrade one day later may be cause for concern. Friday's practice report could unveil if Wicks is in danger of missing Sunday's contest against the Panthers.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Wicks (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.
Wicks now has been listed as limited on three consecutive injury reports dating back to last week due to a hamstring issue, but he wasn't tagged with a designation for a Week 5 matchup with the Jaguars in London. He ended up earning an 84 percent snap share in that contest, which he parlayed into five catches (on eight targets) for 63 yards with top WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) out for a second game in a row. Wicks doesn't appear to be in danger of sitting out this Sunday versus the Panthers, but his status nonetheless will be monitored as the week goes on.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Week 6 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was out again in Week 5 at Jacksonville, and Wicks stepped up with five catches for 63 yards on eight targets. He has now scored at least 11.3 PPR points in three of five games this season, and Wicks is worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues in Week 6 against Carolina if Smith remains out. Darius Cooper (10 percent rostered) had two catches for 71 yards and a touchdown on three targets against the Jaguars and has now scored at least 10.6 PPR points in three of his past four games, including four touchdowns over that span. I would also use Cooper as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues against the Panthers if Smith remains out. Wicks and Cooper are worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAAB.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Five receptions in loss
Rotowire
Wicks caught five of eight targets for 63 yards during Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Jaguars.
Wicks led the team in targets, and he was able to match his season-high five catches in the defeat. The wide receiver also exceeded 60 receiving yards for the third time this season and first time since Week 2. Wicks has now caught 17 of 28 targets for 260 yards and a touchdown over his first five regular-season contests as a member of the Eagles.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Limited by hamstring issue
Rotowire
Wicks was limited at Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Wicks' addition to the injury report midweek indicates that he may have picked up the health concern at practice, but he joins DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Hollywood Brown (ankle) as banged-up players at the position. Currently, rookie first-rounder Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Elijah Moore and Britain Covey are the Eagles' healthy wide receivers.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Three catches in loss
Rotowire
Wicks caught three of five targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams.
Wicks was slated to operate as the team's No. 1 wide receiver in Week 4 with DeVonta Smith (hamstring) sidelined. He finished third on the team in targets behind fellow wideouts Darius Cooper (7) and Makai Lemon (6), while his 18 receiving yards were a season low. Wicks will have an easier matchup in Week 5 against the Jaguars, regardless of whether Smith is available or not.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Philly's WR1 for Week 4
Rotowire
Wicks will operate as the top wide receiver against the Rams on Sunday due to the absence of DeVonta Smith (hamstring), Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.
Wicks has the second-most targets, catches and receiving yards on the Eagles behind Smith through the first three games of the regular season. Smith gutted through a hamstring injury against the Bears in Week 3, but the star wide receiver will observe Sunday's game from the sidelines, meaning Wicks, rookie first-rounder Makai Lemon and Darius Cooper are all in line for more offensive snaps and targets from Jalen Hurts.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
DeVonta Smith (hamstring) won't play in Week 4 against the Rams, which puts Wicks and Makai Lemon in prominent spots for the Eagles. Wicks is worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues, and Lemon is worth a flier in deeper formats. It's not an easy matchup, but the Rams have allowed four touchdowns to receivers in three games and four guys to score at least 12.4 PPR points. Wicks has scored at least 12.4 PPR points in two of three games this year, and he should lead Philadelphia in targets. Lemon is off to a rough start in his rookie campaign with only seven catches for 38 yards on nine targets in three games, but this is a big opportunity for him with Smith out.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Held quiet in Week 3 loss
Rotowire
Wicks recorded two receptions for 32 yards on five targets in Monday's 27-7 loss to the Bears.
Though he didn't find paydirt, Wicks played a critical role on the Eagles' lone scoring drive on the night late in the second quarter, leading off the possession with a 13-yard catch and run. He was otherwise held in check while the game was still competitive, with his lone other reception coming with 6:30 remaining, when the Bears had built a 20-point lead. Through his first three games with Philadelphia, Wicks has produced a 9-179-1 receiving line on 15 targets.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Dallas Goedert (knee) is out for Week 3 at Chicago, and Wicks should be No. 2 on the Eagles in targets behind DeVonta Smith. I like Wicks as a high-end No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues. He has scored at least 12.4 PPR points in each of his first two games, with seven catches for 147 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. The Bears contained Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison in Week 2 with a combined five catches for 76 yards and no touchdowns on 11 targets, but that was in bad weather with Carson Wentz at quarterback. In Week 1, Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker combined for 13 catches for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 17 targets. I'm hopeful Smith and Wicks produce like McMillan and Coker in Week 3.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Week 3 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Wicks has scored at least 12.4 PPR points in each of his first two games with the Eagles, with seven catches for 147 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. He could see a boost in value with Dallas Goedert (knee) out, and I like Wicks as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues heading into Week 3 against the Bears. He's worth adding for at least 5 percent of your remaining FAAB.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Five catches in win over Tennessee
Rotowire
Wicks caught five of six targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans.
While he wasn't able to get into the end zone, Wicks still had a strong showing as the Eagles' clear WR2 behind DeVonta Smith and ahead of rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon. The former Packer is looking good in his new offense, producing a 7-147-1 line on 10 targets through two contests, and Wicks will look to keep developing chemistry with Jalen Hurts in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Hauls in TD in Philly debut
Rotowire
Wicks caught two of four targets for 73 yards and a touchdown Sunday in a 24-22 Week 1 victory against Washington.
Wicks didn't log a particularly high volume of targets, but he nonetheless put up a nice fantasy score thanks to a 64-yard connection with Jalen Hurts late in the first quarter and a nine-yard TD catch in the second. Hurts spread the ball around pretty evenly, hooking up with six different pass catchers, none of whom logged more than four receptions. It could play into Wicks' favor if the Eagles' new offense encourages Hurts to spread the ball around, though all of DeVonta Smith, Makai Lemon and tight end Dallas Goedert figure to need to be fed in addition to Wicks.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Listed as starting WR on depth chart
Rotowire
Wicks is listed as a starter on the Eagles' unofficial depth chart.
Philadelphia lists three starting wide receivers, with those spots going to Wicks, DeVonta Smith and rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon. Wicks had 581 receiving yards as a rookie with the Packers during the 2023 regular season and has failed to reach that mark since, posting only 415 receiving yards in the 2024 regular season and 332 yards in 2025. The 25-year-old wide receiver has an opportunity to play a larger role with his new team, which will kick off regular-season action Sunday against the Commanders.

Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Makes positive impression in joint practices
Rotowire
Wicks stood out with his route running during the Eagles' joint practices with the Patriots last Wednesday and Thursday, Cayden Steele of NJ.com reports.
Though he was generally impressive in both practices, Wicks turned in one highlight-reel-worthy rep during Thursday's session, when he easily shook 1-on-1 coverage from New England cornerback Carlton Davis at the line of scrimmage for what would have been a big gain, per Henry McKenna of FoxSports.com. Acquired from the Packers in April and immediately signed to a one-year, $12.5 million extension, Wicks has been repping with the first-team offense for most of his first camp with the Eagles while No. 1 wideout DeVonta Smith and rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon have been slowed by hamstring injuries. Both Smith and Lemon are practicing again, but the time Lemon has missed along with his own strong performance could set the stage for Wicks to head into the regular season as the Eagles' No. 2 wideout.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Downgraded to out
Rotowire
Wicks (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's wild-card game at Chicago.
The Packer listed Wicks as questionable on their final injury report Thursday. They're now downgrading him to 'out', which could leave a few more snaps/routes for any combination of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Deemed questionable for wild card
Rotowire
The Packers list Wicks (concussion) as questionable for Saturday's wild-card game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
Head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed prior to Thursday's practice that Wicks was still in concussion protocol, which was backed up by the wideout remaining a limited participant in the team's final practice of the week. Wicks still has a chance to play Saturday, but he'll need to be cleared for full contact in addition to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist before he's removed from the protocol. With Bo Melton (knee) and Savion Williams (foot) recently going on injured reserve and with Wicks potentially missing the postseason opener, the Packers could be left with Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden and Jakobie Keeney-James as their available options at receiver against Chicago.

Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Doubtful for Week 18
Rotowire
Wicks (concussion) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at Minnesota, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Wicks wasn't able to practice this week after he made an early exit from last Saturday's loss to the Ravens due to a concussion. With his third absence of the campaign imminent, he'll end his third regular season with a 30-332-2 line on 46 targets in 14 appearances. Wicks' next chance for game action is in the wild-card round on either Jan. 10 or 11.
