DeAndre Hopkins Reunion With Texans Not Expected

Friday, August 21, 11:56 AM

A return to Houston apparently isn't in the cards for free-agent wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. The Texans are looking around for receiver help after losing Jayden Higgins for the season, but Aaron Wilson reports that they aren't expected to pursue a reunion with Hopkins. The 34-year-old spent his first seven NFL seasons in Houston, though things look much different now. Hopkins joined Georgia Tech's staff as an assistant wide receivers coach earlier this month after catching 22 passes for 330 yards and two touchdowns with Baltimore last season. He hasn't officially retired and made a point of saying so after taking the coaching job. That leaves open the possibility of playing again somewhere, just apparently not with the team that drafted him. There isn't much reason for fantasy managers to count on any 2026 production.

Stefon Diggs Looking To Stay Hot in Week 3 Against Seattle

Saturday, September 26, 9:00 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs found the end zone twice again in Week 2, catching five of his six targets for 47 yards against the Dallas Cowboys. The 32-year-old is averaging 18.6 fantasy points per game through two weeks, ranking as the WR11. It will be interesting to see how Diggs and the offense produce without their top QB in Jayden Daniels (elbow), but Marcus Mariota was efficient during the second half and for stretches last season. It is worth noting that Diggs' snaps still aren't all the way there and dropped from 62.9% in Week 1 to 50.7% in Week 2. That should be expected to tick back up in future weeks. Diggs faces a brutal Week 3 matchup against a Seattle Seahawks defense that hasn't allowed a passing touchdown and has allowed only 3.8 yards per pass play this season, in addition to holding him to just three catches for 37 yards in last season's Super Bowl. Diggs ranks as RotoBaller's WR38 in PPR leagues in Week 3, profiling as a WR3/flex option.
