The Philadelphia Eagles are making a notable move ahead of the NFL Draft.
According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, the Eagles are acquiring wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers.
As part of the deal, Wicks is set to sign a one-year, $12.5 million extension, giving Philadelphia immediate help at a key position while questions continue to swirl around the future of A.J. Brown.
TheEagles are sending the fifth-round pick this year that originally got from the AtlantaFalcons and their second sixth rounder next year.
This is the third wide receiver addition the Eagles have made in recent weeks. They signed Hollywood Brown on March 17, Elijah Moore on March 24 and now traded for Wicks on today.
