Wicks saw his workload peak in Week 5, setting a season-high 10.3 expected half PPR points on eight targets and 110 air yards. He has been WR36 on WR42 usage this season.

The Panthers are missing their top-two CBs, and Jameson Williams posted 102 receiving yards in Week 4 without them. Philadelphia sits as a 1.5-point home favorite with an implied team total of 21.5 points (18th).PositiveUsageOct 15, 2026
