Much of the Green Bay Packers’ optimism about a return trip to the Super Bowl in coming years centers around Jordan Love’s lofty ceiling, as well as the young and gifted supporting cast built around him by general manager Brian Gutekunst.Between the mismatches created by emerging tight ends Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft underneath, and the pedigree of receivers Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, the Packers have built a young arsenal that can develop alongside the wunderkind quarterback.
CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin put together a list of each team’s under-the-radar player who could emerge as a breakout star in 2024, with wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks as his selection for the Packers.Insert basically any Packers wideout here,” Benjamin writes for CBS. “And you’d be justified. Quarterback Jordan Love is surrounded by young, mostly unknown but incredibly promising pass catchers. After averaging close to 15 yards per catch as a rookie, Wicks could prove to be his top big-play threat downfield.”
Wicks proved plenty capable of being a burner in a Packers receiving corps that navigated several key injuries throughout 2023.
