Green Bay Packers rookie receiver Dontayvion Wicks missed practice Thursday after suffering a concussion during Wednesday’s practice, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.
While the first training camp practice was designed to have limited contact, Wicks presumably suffered the head injury after taking a hit from defensive back Innis Gaines during a team drill on Wednesday, per Andy Herman of Packer Report.
While line-of-scrimmage players wear “Guardian Caps” on their helmets during practices to help prevent head injuries, receivers do not wear the extra helmet protection.
Wicks was the only injury addition on Thursday, the second practice of training camp.
