Chicago's struggles against outside wideouts should be a good thing for Dontayvion Wicks, who plays almost exclusively on the boundary. That Wicks is listed as a negative regression bro in this week's Regression Files might not matter so much in a matchup against a Bears secondary giving up the ninth highest completion rate over expected on boundary targets.

Wicks' boundary role exploits Bears' weak boundary coverage in Week 3.

Wicks plays almost exclusively on the boundary and faces a favorable matchup against Chicago's secondary in Week 3. The Bears are giving up the ninth highest completion rate over expected on boundary targets, and only the Texans have given up more fantasy points per drop back on boundary throws through two weeks. Despite being flagged as a regression candidate, Wicks should benefit if the Eagles get halfway normal game script against the Bears' third-string QB situation.
