Stefon Diggs Profiles as Strong WR2 in Week 4

Saturday, October 3, 8:11 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs could be in line for an even bigger target share in Week 4 against the Colts, with Terry McLaurin (hamstring) expected to be sidelined. Diggs has gotten off to a strong start in Washington, drawing at least six targets in all three games and catching three touchdowns. The 32-year-old wideout still isn't quite running a full route share, but he did spike to a season-high 77.1% after dipping down to 52.4% in Week 2. Diggs could be set up for a strong day against a leaky Colts secondary that has allowed the third most passing yards per game (276) and the fourth most yards per pass attempt (7.8). Diggs should be fired up as a high-end WR2 in one of the higher-scoring projected matchups of the week.

Deebo Samuel Sr. Could Benefit From Teammates' Injuries

Saturday, October 3, 12:21 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. made history in Week 3 with his 80-yard touchdown off a lateral from Mike Evans (ribs). Samuel finished that game without receiving a pass from quarterback Brock Purdy, which gave him the dubious honor of having the most receiving yards without a catch in an NFL game. Samuel wasn't even targeted in the game, but he should be more involved in Week 4 against the Broncos, with Mike Evans (ribs) a game-time decision and Demarcus Robinson (ankle) joining De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) and Christian Kirk (calf) on injured reserve. On paper, Samuel's matchup is not easy, but last week the Rams were able to exploit Denver's secondary to the tune of 390 passing yards. Samuel is projected as a WR3 in Week 4. His explosive play ability and potential for increased involvement in the 49ers' offense make him worth starting on Sunday.
