Dontayvion Wicks had only two catches in Philadelphia's 24-22 Week 1 win over Washington, but they were both impactful. One went for 64 yards. The other went for nine yards and a touchdown. Wicks' snap and route counts, not his target count, tell the tale of his involvement. He played only two fewer snaps and ran two fewer routes than DeVonta Smith.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Wicks' snap parity with Smith signals high involvement despite low target count.

Dontayvion Wicks is rostered in only 16% of leagues but showed strong involvement in Week 1 despite just two catches on four targets in Philadelphia's 24-22 win over Washington. His snap and route counts tell the real story: he played only two fewer snaps and ran two fewer routes than DeVonta Smith (who led Eagles receivers in both categories) and played 15 more snaps than first-round rookie Makai Lemon. Both of Wicks' catches were impactful—one for 64 yards and one for a 9-yard touchdown. With favorable matchups against the Titans and Bears in the next two weeks, Wicks is a worthwhile addition despite his historical drop issues.
