Eagles' DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks Miss Practice; Makai Lemon Set for Expanded Role

Eagles' DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks Miss Practice; Makai Lemon Set for Expanded Role
World Sports · 02:03:06 - Monday, 9 November 2026

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks remained sidelined from practice as of Friday, November 6, 2026, according to fantasy football injury reports. The absence of both pass-catchers is expected to increase opportunities for rookie wideout Makai Lemon in the Eagles' offense.

Smith, wearing No. 6, was photographed making a reception against the Carolina Panthers during a previous game at Lincoln Financial Field. With the team's top two receivers unavailable for practice, Lemon's role in the passing game could expand significantly heading into the next matchup.

The injury situation bears monitoring for both fantasy football managers and Eagles fans alike, as Philadelphia's receiving corps depth will be tested if Smith and Wicks cannot return to full participation this week.
