Is Dontayvion Wicks playing today? Why Packers WR had quiet first half vs. Bears image

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks had one of the best games of his career in Week 13.

Wicks finished with six catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns in a massively important victory over the Detroit Lions last week.

However, Wicks isn't building on that showing in the Week 14 game against the Chicago Bears, as he had a quiet first half.

Here's a closer look at what's going on.

Is Dontayvion Wick playing today?

Yes, Wicks is active and healthy, but he did not receive a single target over the first half.

A good explanation is the Packers have an even more crowded wide receivers room than normal this week thanks to the returns of Matthew Golden and Jayden Reed.

As a result, targets and snaps are going to be hard to come by for the rest of this game and for the foreseeable future.
