PositiveValueOct 30, 2026Arrowhead Pride

Dontayvion Wicks has 19 receptions on 31 targets for 284 yards (14.9 YPR, 1 TD) with a contract that would cost the Chiefs 2 years, $4.4M. He lines up outside 70% this year and 60%+ career-wide; he's been a significant deep threat (9 deep targets this year, 32 over past three years) and does his best work against man coverage. The source identifies him as an imperfect but exact fit for what the Chiefs are missing in Thornton's absence and expects him to come at a reasonable price.

Wicks ran a route on 80% of Philadelphia's dropbacks in his six games before missing Week 7. Curls, hitches and outs account for 38% of his routes, with play-action used on 16%. Receiver Score is holding Wicks, though Lemon has emerged in his absence and Smith's eventual return will add another target earner to the room.
