The Philadelphia Eagles have added rookie wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks to their roster after a trade with the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay sends a fifth‑round pick this year and a sixth‑rounder next year in exchange for the player.

Wicks, who finished his rookie campaign with 30 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns, will sign a one‑year, $12.5 million extension. The deal keeps him under contract through the 2027 season, giving the Eagles a reliable target while preserving cap flexibility.

From a strategic view, the acquisition offers the Eagles an alternative to A.J. Brown and a potential trade asset. Wicks’ best game—94 yards on six catches—came against the Detroit Lions, showing his big‑play capability in high‑pressure moments.

Green Bay, meanwhile, retains a deep receiving corps with Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and Matthew Golden. The trade fits their plan to develop Golden and keep Wicks from entering free agency next year.
