Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks caught six of seven targets for 61 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Chicago Bears. The rookie caught a touchdown in both the second and third quarters, which ended up being the only two end zone drives of the game. Since Week 14, Wicks has seen his role in the offense increase due to the loss of Christian Watson (hamstring), and he has capitalized on his opportunity multiple times. Watson should be good to go next week, but now that Romeo Doubs (chest) status for next week is up in the air, the 22-year-old could be a sneaky flex option for those playing in daily fantasy formats next week when the Packers take on the Dallas Cowboys.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 27 of 32 passes for 316 yards and two touchdowns, adding three carries for a loss of one yard and losing a fumble during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Chicago Bears. The first-year starter threw for over 300 yards for the second time this season and propelled the Packers to a wild-card spot. Love found rookie wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks in the end zone twice. Love has been playing without multiple receivers all season long but has found a way to succeed both for fantasy and on the NFL field. He will be a popular target in daily fantasy formats next week when the Packers take on the Dallas Cowboys on the road.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (chest) exited during the first half of Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Prior to departing, he was targeted in the end zone but failed to haul in the pass. The Packers are somewhat shorthanded with both Doubs and Christian Watson (hamstring, inactive) sidelined, though they should feel solid about their passing attack with Jordan Love throwing to the likes of Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, and Tucker Kraft, among others.
Green Bay Packers rookie tight end Luke Musgrave (kidney) and running back Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) are active for Week 18 versus the Chicago Bears. Both players had been listed as questionable but were trending in the right direction after being activated from injured reserve on Saturday. Musgrave, who was limited in practice all week long, returns from a six-game absence but could have reduced opportunities given how well Tucker Kraft has played lately. Meanwhile, Wilson will likely serve as the Packers' No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and Patrick Taylor. Neither Musgrave nor Wilson are on the fantasy radar this week.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) is officially inactive for Week 18 against the Chicago Bears. He had been listed as questionable and there was some optimism that he would play despite missing Friday's practice. In the end, though, Green Bay will hold him out for one more week. This marks Watson's fifth consecutive absence and should lead to more opportunities for Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, and Dontayvion Wicks. Of that group, Reed has the most fantasy appeal, ranking as a high-end WR3.
