According to Mike Reiss of ESPN, New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) is expected to be ready for their season opener against the Las Vegas Raiders. Head coach Mike Vrabel noted that "As of today, he'll be out there." Reiss projects Diggs to be placed at the top of the depth chart, serving as Drake Maye's top target while DeMario Dougls and Kayshon Boutte slot in as the No. 2and No. 3. Reiss also expects veteran Mack Hollins to find a role as well. Last season, Diggs suffered a torn ACL in Week 8 of the regular season. Before the injury, Diggs was finding success with the Texans, averaging 15.6 PPR points through the first seven games. During this stretch, he found the back of the end zone three times and saw 7.9 targets per game. Given the lack of proven success outside of Diggs on the depth chart, fantasy managers should view him as a high-floor WR3 in PPR leagues if he is cleared to suit up.

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Efton Chism III made the 53-man roster after a terrific preseason, and he could carve out a role as a physical pass-catching option over the middle of the field with the ability to rack up yards after the catch. However, he'll still need to earn opportunities in the Patriots' offense, and it could be difficult for him to obtain fantasy relevance if he's stuck behind players like Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas, Mack Hollins, Kyle Williams, and even Hunter Henry. His best chance at sneaking onto the fantasy radar would be through injuries to any of those receivers ahead of him. Chism certainly has the trust of the front office, coaching staff, and quarterback Drake Maye. However, as an undrafted free agent, he still has a lot of work to do before becoming a consistent fantasy option week in and week out. For now, he's a low-end speculative stash in dynasty leagues, but he should be avoided altogether in redraft formats.

New England Patriots rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson "moves like a much more experienced veteran, especially in pass protection," according to Jourdan Rodrigue. It's worth noting that this is Rodrigue's opinion, but she also quotes an unnamed coach who said Henderson has the makings of "a star." Henderson's explosiveness and big-play ability are easy to project based on his work in both college and the preseason. If he is further along than the typical rookie running back in the finer points of the position, as Rodrigue suggests, Henderson could be ready to take over the New England backfield sooner rather than later. He enters the year projected to split playing time with veteran running back Rhamondre Stevenson, but Henderson is unquestionably the higher-upside option. Henderson projects as a priority fantasy RB2 with major upside for 2025.

New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III (ankle, foot) returned to practice earlier this week after missing some time due to an injury he suffered in the team's second preseason game. The Eastern Washington product told reporters he is "absolutely healthy" on Wednesday, a day after he officially made the Patriots' 53-man roster. Veterans Stefon Diggs (knee) and DeMario Douglas are expected to lead New England's receiver corps, while Chism will compete with fellow rookie Kyle Williams (head/undisclosed), Kayshon Boutte, and Mack Hollins for snaps. With Kendrick Bourne recently released, Chism could see early opportunities, making his usage worth monitoring across all fantasy formats.

New England Patriots rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson has "impressed Patriots brass with his ability to run between the tackles, not just to the outside," according to Chad Graff of The Athletic. Graff also writes that Henderson "looks like easily (New England's) best offensive weapon" and has "outperformed both" of the team's veteran running backs, Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson, in practice. Henderson's explosive speed and receiving ability are well known from his collegiate days at Ohio State. However, if the 22-year-old is also opening eyes with his inside rushing ability, he could be on the fast track to a three-down role in New England. Henderson is a priority RB2 target in redraft leagues with significant upside if he can wrestle touches away from Stevenson and Gibson over the course of the season.
