Dontayvion Wicks Cleared for London Clash With Expanded Target Share on Tap

Wicks avoided an injury designation for Week 5 after shaking off a hamstring issue, stepping into a prime perimeter role in London against Jacksonville. With top receiver DeVonta Smith ruled out due to a hamstring injury, Wicks enters the lineup as a starting outside target and should see an immediate bump in looks from Jalen Hurts.

Our models project Wicks for 10.4 fantasy points on over five targets and 48 receiving yards. While currently started in only 16% of leagues, his separation ability and elevated role make him an appealing Flex/Stream option in a matchup where Philadelphia enters as 7.5-point favorites.

Outlook Michael Mayer

Michael Mayer at New England — Expanding Role Offers Streaming Appeal

Michael Mayer enters Week 5 healthy and building momentum after hauling in eight of 10 targets for 82 yards against Kansas City. Operating alongside Brock Bowers in heavy two-tight-end sets, Mayer has developed strong chemistry with Kirk Cousins when opponents bring pressure. With wideout Jalen Nailor ruled out, Las Vegas is positioned to keep utilizing multiple tight ends frequently on the road against the Patriots.

Rostered in roughly 23% of leagues, Mayer's fantasy trust is slowly rising after commanding 13 targets over his last two outings. Our projections forecast roughly 3 receptions and 28 yards, pegging him around 7.8 fantasy points. While Bowers caps his weekly ceiling, Mayer's expanding role makes him a viable deep-league streamer.
