Dontayvion Wicks

22-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After a 2021 season with Virginia in which he averaged 21.1 yards per catch and scored nine touchdowns, Wicks fell off last year (14.3 YPC, two TDs) and subsequently fell down draft boards. Even so, the Packers liked him enough to snap him up in the fifth round of this year's draft. Drops were an issue for Wicks, as were his 40-yard dash times (4.62 at the combine, 4.57 at his pro day). He otherwise rates well athletically and can be a big-play threat. Green Bay's receiving room is as green as any in the NFL, so if Wicks shows he's more like the receiver from 2021 than a year ago, he could snag the fourth spot on the depth chart and push for snaps as a rookie.

Scores first touchdown

September 17, 2023
Wicks caught two of four targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Wicks extended Green Bay's lead by breaking a tackle en route to a 32-yard touchdown during the third quarter. While that marked the rookie fifth-rounder's first end-zone trip, it wasn't enough for the Packers to avoid a late defeat. Still, in leading his team in receiving yards Sunday, Wicks turned in a commendable performance with usual top wideout Christian Watson (hamstring) sidelined once again.
