New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been a steady contributor in fantasy football this season. Through eight games, he's averaging 11.9 fantasy points (full-PPR) while ranking as the overall WR26. He has posted double-digit points in four of his last five games, and he salvaged last week's fantasy outing with his first touchdown of the season. While Kayshon Boutte has been a big-play threat in New England, Diggs has been more of a reliable, short-to-medium passing option for Drake Maye. The 31-year-old is listed first on the depth chart of a 6-2 team whose offense is firing on all cylinders. That's always a good sign. Despite the Falcons allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, Diggs should be deployed as a low-end WR2.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (ankle) was listed as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Diggs has been dealing with a chest injury throughout most of the season. Now, Diggs is dealing with an ankle problem, but it doesn't sound like a serious issue. Barring any setbacks, Diggs should be out there for the Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Diggs scored his first touchdown of the season last week. Despite the lack of scoring, Diggs has been a viable option most weeks. He should offer low-end WR2 value for this weekend's contest.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) was upgraded to a full participant in practice on Friday. He has been removed from the injury report and will play in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns. The veteran receiver has impressed lately, catching 26 passes for 344 yards over his last four games, though he's still looking for his first touchdown of the 2025 season. Diggs delivered some very solid fantasy performances against the Panthers, Bills, and Titans, and he should find similar success against a Browns defense whose biggest weakness is depending the pass. Cleveland is specifically poor against receivers playing out wide, as they've allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to perimeter receivers in 2025. They also rank near league average in terms of points allowed to slot receivers. We could see Diggs enjoy a big week against the Browns, especially if the Patriots' rushing attack can't get going and Maye finds himself with a reduced amount of time to get the football out. Diggs ranks as a high-end WR3/flex, but there's no denying his upside in a high-volume receiving role.
Oct 25, 2025 9:30 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday due to a chest injury. Diggs' chest injury isn't considered serious, so the 31-year-old veteran pass-catcher should be able to play without any restrictions for this Sunday's upcoming matchup against the visiting Cleveland Browns. The four-time Pro Bowler is still searching for his first touchdown of the member of the Patriots, but he has been impressively efficient while working with improved quarterback Drake Maye so far this year. Diggs has caught 39 of his 44 targets for 456 yards and is coming off a seven-catch, 69-yard performance in the Week 7 win over the Tennessee Titans. Diggs and the Patriots' passing game will face a difficult matchup against Cleveland's defense this weekend, where he should be considered more of a low-end WR2 play.
Oct 23, 2025 6:53 PM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) was listed as limited in practice on Wednesday, according to the team. Diggs dealt with the same injury last week in practice and was ultimately able to play through it, and ran his normal route share in Week 7 against the Titans. It was another productive game for the 31-year-old wideout, catching all seven targets for 69 yards. Diggs will likely be good to go again in Week 8 against the Browns and ranks as a fringe WR1/WR2 option.
Oct 23, 2025 12:19 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs handled seven targets last Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, catching all seven passes for 69 yards. He had his second-highest catch total of the season despite playing just 54 percent of the snaps. Drake Maye is good at spreading the ball around, but Diggs has been a true constant within the offense, catching at least six passes in four of his last seven games. He has impressed as the overall WR26 in PPR leagues, pushing into high-end flex territory. His value could take a step back this week, though, as the Patriots are already getting ready to take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 7. The Browns have a good defense all around, lowering Diggs' floor and ceiling this week. He should be treated as a WR3/flex with upside.
Oct 22, 2025 2:10 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) is active to face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday in Week 7. Diggs entered the weekend with a questionable tag due to a chest injury that kept him limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. The 31-year-old veteran pass-catcher upgraded to a full practice on Friday, though, and he's good to go against Tennessee. Kayshon Boutte and DeMario Douglas both came away with big games in last week's win over the Saints, with Diggs only going for three catches and 28 yards in Week 6. However, he had back-to-back 100-yard performances in Weeks 4 and 5, and he remains a key part of the Pats' passing attack led by improving second-year quarterback Drake Maye. Diggs currently leads the team in targets (37), catches (32), and receiving yards (387). Consider him a low-end WR2 for fantasy football.
Oct 19, 2025 11:59 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) is expected to play when the Pats take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 7, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The veteran wide receiver has two top-20 finishes in the past three weeks and has started to look like his old self now that he is one year removed from a major knee injury as a member of the Houston Texans. Diggs has 22 targets, 19 catches, and 275 yards in New England's past three games, and now takes on a Titans team ranked 18th against fantasy wide receivers. He's a solid WR2/high-end Flex in Week 7 who can be started in pretty much all formats.
Oct 19, 2025 7:35 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) will be questionable for Sunday's Week 7 matchup with the Titans. Diggs was able to manage a week of limited practices, but his status should be monitored leading up to Sunday's early game inactive reports. Diggs followed up back-to-back 100+ yard performances with a disappointing three catches for 28 yards against the Saints in Week 6. Still, his growing chemistry with Drake Maye has been evident as he continues to put distance between himself and the ACL injury that ended his 2024 season. If active, Diggs is a strong flex option against a Titans defense that has been middle of the pack against wide receivers.
Oct 17, 2025 2:23 PM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. It appears the veteran wideout is dealing with a minor chest issue. It's unclear when he picked up the injury, but it shouldn't be something that sidelines him in Week 7. Diggs posted back-to-back 100-yard games before giving fantasy managers a 28-yard dud this past weekend. The 31-year-old has a plus-matchup against the Tennessee Titans this weekend. Just to be safe, fantasy managers should check back later in the week to confirm Diggs is fine for Sunday's game.
Oct 15, 2025 9:17 PM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been excellent lately, and he'll look to remain effective heading into Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints. Diggs has at least 100 yards in each of his last two games, including a phenomenal 10-catch, 146-yard performance against his old team, the Bills, last Sunday. The veteran receiver started slow this season but has suddenly broken out in a huge way, cementing himself as Drake Maye's favorite target. In addition to his track record, Diggs is a strong fantasy option for this week because of his matchup. We should see him thrive if he runs most of his routes out wide, as New Orleans has allowed the fewest fantasy points to slot receivers but the 10th-most fantasy points to perimeter receivers. He's a low-end WR2 for the time being.
Oct 11, 2025 1:25 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs made an enormous impression with his 10 catches and 146 yards on Sunday Night Football. The veteran receiver was able to get revenge on his old team, the Buffalo Bills, while turning in the best game yet with his new team. The 31-year-old has been everything the Patriots could have asked for (and more), making a variety of toe-drag plays and catches while being covered by a defender. He has 16 catches and 247 yards over his last two games, putting him firmly in the mid-range WR2 mix for Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints.
Oct 8, 2025 2:17 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught 10 of his 12 targets for 146 yards during Sunday's Week 5 win over the Buffalo Bills. Diggs served as Drake Maye's favorite target and made several key catches against his old team, including toe-taps on the sideline and several first downs. The veteran receiver was a main reason why the Patriots were able to maintain a lead over -- and defeat -- the Bills on Sunday night. While Diggs was relatively inconsistent over the first few weeks of the season, he has come on quite strong lately, eclipsing 100 yards in back-to-back games. His 40.7 fantasy points (PPR) over the last two weeks rank seventh-best among all NFL receivers. He'll look to carry this momentum into a favorable matchup against the Saints, ranking as a low-end WR2 in fantasy football.
Oct 6, 2025 12:13 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs is back under consideration for a starting lineup spot in fantasy football ahead of his Week 5 clash with the Buffalo Bills. After an underwhelming start to the season, Diggs exploded with six catches and 101 yards against the Panthers last week. The matchup gets a little tougher this week, as the Bills have allowed the sixth-fewest receiving yards and 10th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Nevertheless, the veteran receiver is coming off a big game and has earned a commitment from quarterback Drake Maye, who vowed to throw more passes his way. Plus, we can't ignore the negative game script and revenge game narrative this weekend. Diggs is a worthwhile WR3/flex option.
Oct 4, 2025 10:27 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs was on the field for 31 out of 49 offensive snaps in Sunday's blowout win over the Panthers. His 69% snap share was the highest of the season, resulting in his best game as a Patriot. Diggs caught six of his team-leading seven targets for 101 yards. Considering Drake Maye only threw 17 passes on the day, Diggs accounted for over 40% of the team's target share. Still less than a year removed from surgery to repair his torn ACL, Diggs could soon become a weekly play, rewarding fantasy managers who were able to hold onto him through a slow start to the season.
Sep 30, 2025 3:04 PM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been underwhelming during his first season with the team, amassing just 13 catches and 112 yards while ranking as the overall WR58 in PPR leagues. He could continue to struggle in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. Although quarterback Drake Maye vowed to get Diggs more targets, we've heard him say this previously, only to leave him relatively uninvolved. Therefore, managers can't put a lot of stock into the quarterback's comments. Instead, it's best to stay away from Diggs until he demonstrates that he can be a fantasy-relevant receiver for consecutive weeks. Relevance may elude Diggs this week as he faces the Panthers, who have surrendered the fewest catches, second-fewest receiving yards, and second-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. RotoBaller's fantasy rankings have Diggs listed as this week's overall WR52.
Sep 27, 2025 1:30 AM EST
For the second straight week, New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye said he wants to get the ball to wide receiver Stefon Diggs more, according to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald. "Got full trust in (Diggs). He just keeps showing it every week. You just try to get him the ball more. I told him that, you know, today," Maye said. After saying the same thing last week, Diggs was targeted a season-low three times and caught all three for a season-low 23 yards in the Week 3 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 31-year-old veteran has at least been efficient in his first three games with the Pats, catching 13 of his 15 targets, but he's gone for only 112 yards and no touchdowns. It's possible he's lost some juice after tearing his ACL last year, but it's good news that his QB is looking to keep him involved. Diggs will be a low-upside, touchdown-dependent WR4/flex in a good Week 4 matchup at home against the Carolina Panthers.
Sep 24, 2025 5:57 PM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has seen his snap share increase every week so far. However, his target, reception, and yardage totals have declined every week. To this point, the more he's on the field, the less he has been involved. This is unlikely to continue going forward, as his playing time and volume should start to balance out. Nevertheless, his fantasy value has been somewhat underwhelming, as he ranks as the overall WR58 in PPR leagues through three weeks. He caught just three passes for 23 yards last Sunday, and things won't get any easier for him in Week 4 against a Panthers defense that just shut out the Falcons. Diggs is worth scooping up off the waiver wire given his consistency and veteran presence, but it's hard to justify starting him in leagues with 14 teams or fewer.
Sep 24, 2025 1:23 AM EST
New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has seen lower usage than expected during the first two weeks of the season, which makes him tough to trust in fantasy football for Week 3 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Diggs' volume has been steady so far, but he has only played 54.2 percent of the team's offensive snaps. This type of usage might not be enough to justify starting Diggs in fantasy football, especially against a Steelers defense that has been near league-average in terms of fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. They've been particularly stingy against slot receivers, and 36.6 percent of Diggs' snaps this season have come in the slot. He ranks just outside the top 36 fantasy receivers for Week 3 against Pittsburgh.
Sep 20, 2025 2:29 AM EST
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye said on Wednesday that he needs to get wide receiver Stefon Diggs the ball more, while also acknowledging that he needs to "focus on finding open receivers," according to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald. "I haven't heard Stefon (Diggs) say one thing about 'I need the ball more.' That is not something that I've ever heard," offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said. Through the first two weeks of the 2025 season, Diggs' 89 receiving yards rank him third on the team, although he's first in targets (12) and first in catches (10). The 31-year-old veteran is being involved, but it sounds like Maye is looking for more. It's what Diggs' fantasy managers want to hear, and he could be due for a big game in Week 3 against a Pittsburgh Steelers defense that has looked long in the tooth.
