Wicks' 14.7 yards per target and big-play upside make him a Week 3 sleeper vs. Bears.

Wicks has emerged as Philadelphia's No. 2 receiver with at least four targets and 12 fantasy points in back-to-back games; he caught 5 of 6 targets for 74 yards in Week 2 against Tennessee. His 2.8 yards per route leads all Eagles wide receivers and ranks seventh among WRs with at least 50 routes this season; his 14.7 yards per target leads all wide receivers with at least 10 targets. Wicks has been a big-play weapon with four explosive plays (20+ yards) this season. Against Chicago in Week 3, the Bears allow the ninth-most passing yards per game and the league's fourth-highest explosive pass rate (22.4%), and with TE Dallas Goedert out with an MCL sprain, Wicks should see even more opportunities.
