Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks was the star of Thursday's win over the Lions, hauling in six of seven targets for 94 yards and two TDs. He scored the game's first TD early in the second quarter on an impressive contested grab in the end zone from 22 yards out. Wicks' second TD came on a quick out from the one-yard line in the third quarter. He iced the game with a 16-yard reception to convert a fourth-and-three with under two minutes to go.

This was a fun outing for the Dontayvion Wicks fan club. Although he's struggled with drops, Wicks has always been a strong separator and target earner. Those skills were on display throughout the Thanksgiving win. Wicks' seven targets ranked second on the team and were a 23.3% share.
Unfortunately, the big game comes just as the Packers are expected to get WR Jayden Reed back from his foot and collarbone injuries. WR Matthew Golden also has a chance to return for Week 14.
With WRs Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs seemingly entrenched as full-timers in this offense, Wicks figures to be squeezed out of snaps going forward. He's a fine speculative stash as we wait to see exactly how this Packers WR corps will play out. But don't go dropping anyone of value for him.
