Stefon Diggs News
Monday, October 19, 3:14 PM
Washington Commanders veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring) is officially active on Monday night on the road against the San Francisco 49ers to close out Week 6 action. Diggs' return to action on Monday is great news for Washington's offense as they look to give the 49ers their first loss of the 2026 season, but it is bad news for the target shares of both Terry McLaurin and rookie Antonio Williams in Week 6. The 32-year-old Diggs injured his hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in London and was unable to play in last Sunday's tie against the division-rival New York Giants. He is sporting an 18-170-3 line in his first four games for the Commanders this year in his 12th year in the league. All three of Diggs' touchdowns this year came in the first two weeks of the season in losses to the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys before quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a dislocated left elbow. Most fantasy managers in traditional leagues have benched Diggs this week because his status was up in the air, and he should be faded in DFS lineups on Monday night against a strong Niners defense.

Deebo Samuel Sr. News
Friday, October 23, 1:51 PM
San Francisco 49ers veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons by head coach Kyle Shanahan, according to NBC Sports' Matt Maiocco. Samuel was expected to miss multiple weeks with a hamstring strain after he injured it in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, so fantasy managers should not be surprised that the 30-year-old has been ruled out for a second straight week. With a bye coming in Week 8 for the Niners, Samuel's next chance to play will be in a Week 9 matchup at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. By then, the team's receiver room could look a lot different, potentially limiting Samuel's fantasy ceiling if he is even ready to return by then. The 49ers might not have brought Samuel back in 2026 if not for all of their WR injuries early on. Before his hamstring injury in Week 5, Samuel saw plenty of opportunities, catching 16 passes for 206 yards and three touchdowns in five games, adding nine carries for 78 yards on the ground. With Mike Evans (Achilles, rib) also out against Atlanta, the 49ers could be down to Christian Kirk (calf), Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing, and Jordan Watkins at the position.
