Eagles wide receiver faces injury setback during practice
The Eagles were given some worrying news on Thursday afternoon.
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks faces potential injury setback as he was added to the team's injury report on Thursday due to a reported hamstring injury. Wicks, who had been filling the role left by A.J. Brown, went for 197 yards in his first four games of the season, averaging 16.4 yards per reception, which is the highest rate on the Eagles.
With DeVonta Smith currently on the injury report, Wicks was expected to see increased playing time. However, due to his own injury, Wicks was limited during practice on Thursday, suggesting the severity of the hamstring injury. Now, Wicks joins Smith, Marquise Brown, and rookie Makai Lemon on the injury report, with their game status for Sunday's match against the Jacksonville Jaguars still uncertain.
This injury report adds uncertainty for Eagles quarterbacks Sean Mannion and Nick Sirianni ahead of their overseas game.
