Logs full practice Thursday Wicks (chest) practiced fully Thursday.

Impact Among the Packers' trio of injured wide receivers, Wicks is the first one this week to log all on-field work in a session, as Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) remained limited Thursday. Watson and Reed seem like decent bets to be available Sunday against the Bears, but Friday's injury report will reveal if either or both have designations for that contest. If either of them is sidelined this weekend, Wicks would be the top candidate to join the other in three-wide sets along with Romeo Doubs. Even if both Watson and Reed suit up, though, Wicks should be good for a regular role in Green Bay's, as he's averaged 4.5 targets per game in his last eight appearances.

Not playing Sunday Wicks (chest/ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday at Minnesota, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Wicks was knocked out of last Sunday's win at Carolina with a chest injury, which kept him off the practice field until Friday. After the Packers listed him as questionable for Week 17 action, coach Matt LaFleur told Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com that Wicks was "very limited" in Friday's session, and the lack of activity likely swayed the team to hold out the rookie fifth-round pick this weekend. With Christian Watson (hamstring) also out Sunday, Green Bay's options at wide receiver are Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton.

Ruled out of Sunday's game Wicks (chest) won't return to Sunday's game in Carolina, Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Impact Wicks took a hit as he was tumbling into the end zone at the end of a 21-yard touchdown catch just before halftime. Afterward, he was seen in visible pain on the sideline, seeming to favor the right side of his chest, and team doctors ultimately wouldn't clear him to reenter the contest. Wicks thus will finish Week 16 with two catches (on two targets) for 29 yards and the aforementioned score. The Packers' receiving corps is banged up at the moment, with both Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) inactive, so Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton are the remaining healthy options at the position.

Paces pass catchers in loss Wicks secured six of seven targets for 97 yards in the Packers' 34-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Impact The rookie became the latest young Packers pass catcher to enjoy a breakout effort, with the fifth-round pick setting new career highs in receptions and receiving yards. Wicks now has two 90+ yard tallies in the last four games overall, and he could have a chance at another busy afternoon in Week 16 road battle versus the Panthers if fellow rookie Jayden Reed (toe) and/or Christian Watson (hamstring) miss the contest.

Limited practice Thursday Wicks (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact Wicks started Week 15 prep with a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report, but he mixed back into drills one day later despite dealing with what the Packers thought was a high-ankle injury after Monday's defeat at the Giants, per Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay. If Wicks has such a sprain, he typically would be in line for an absence of some type, but his ability to practice Thursday may mean he has a chance to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers. With Christian Watson (hamstring) not logging any on-field work so far this week and Jayden Reed (ankle) limited, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure currently are the only healthy wide receivers on the Packers' active roster.

DECEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as DNP on Wednesday Wicks (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

Impact According to Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay, Wicks is believed to be dealing with a high-ankle injury in the wake of Monday's loss at the Giants, so his listed DNP to begin Week 15 prep doesn't come as much of a surprise. Wicks may be hard-pressed to log any on-field work at all Thursday and/or Friday, after which the Packers may make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. Fellow wide receivers Christian Watson (hamstring, DNP) and Jayden Reed (ankle, LP) also made appearances on Wednesday's injury report, leaving just Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure as Green Bay's healthy options at the position at the moment.

Back in action Sunday Wicks (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Wicks missed the Packers' Week 12 win at Detroit on Thanksgiving due to a concussion and a knee injury. While he made it through the protocol for head injuries as of last Monday, he remained limited in practice during Week 13 prep as a result of the other concern. Now that he's been cleared to play again, Wicks will serve as Green Bay's fourth wide receiver behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
