Stefon Diggs Cleared to Play on Sunday Night Football

Friday, October 30, 2:27 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hand, hamstring) is off the final Week 8 injury report and will be active on Sunday night against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. Diggs was held out of the first practice of the week on Wednesday with hand and hamstring injuries, but he was a full-go on Thursday and Friday, paving the way for him to play this weekend and serve as the WR1 for quarterback Jayden Daniels with Terry McLaurin (knee) out for the season. The 32-year-old Diggs has been surprisingly productive in his first year with the Commanders, scoring four times in his first five games, including in the Monday night loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6, when he caught six of seven targets for 44 yards. Diggs will have a higher target share going forward, especially if Treylon Burks (foot) cannot play on Sunday night, although he will also attract more attention from opposing secondaries. Against an Eagles defense looking to bounce back, Diggs is ranked as the No. 21 fantasy WR this week at RotoBaller.

Adonai Mitchell Turns in the Top Fantasy Performance of His Career

Sunday, November 1, 7:47 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell caught seven of nine targets for a team-high 142 yards and one receiving touchdown during Sunday's Week 8 loss against the New York Jets. Mitchell was coming off a frustrating Week 7 performance in which he caught zero passes on a 44% snap share, but he bounced back in a huge way against Vegas by out-producing both Garrett Wilson and Omar Cooper Jr. Along the way, Mitchell handled a 60.9% snap share, which is more than the previous week but still ranked third among the Jets' wide receivers. Sunday's huge performance represented the best fantasy output of Mitchell's career, and he remains an intriguing WR3/flex option heading into a projected negative game script environment against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9. With that being said, the Jets' offense can probably only support two fantasy-relevant receivers, and one of them is Wilson. That leaves Cooper and Mitchell battling for meaningful volume going forward.
