Packers WR Dontayvion Wicks dodges bullet with shoulder injury, could suit up vs Texans

After some initial concern regarding his shoulder injury, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, potentially opening the door for him to be available for Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans.

When asked if the Packers had dodged a bullet regarding Wicks’ shoulder, Matt LaFleur responded with, “Yeah, absolutely” after practice.

Wicks sustained the injury when he landed awkwardly on his right shoulder following a 9-yard catch-and-run during the team’s Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals. After initially being listed as questionable to return, he did not play another snap and was ruled out at halftime.
