Stefon Diggs Ruled Out for Week 5

Friday, October 9, 9:25 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring), who has been unable to practice this week while dealing with a hamstring injury, has been ruled out for the team's Week 5 matchup with the Giants. Diggs saw sporadic usage through the first half of a Week 4 loss to the Colts before finding more involvement in a pass-heavy second half, finishing the day with 35 yards on five receptions in a game missed by Terry McLaurin (hamstring). McLaurin, limited again this week by his own hamstring injury, reportedly looked good in his return to practice on Friday and is trending in the right direction to suit up on Sunday, along with quarterback Jayden Daniels.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Solidifies Status as Top-Scoring Fantasy Receiver

Sunday, October 11, 9:25 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught five of his eight targets for 102 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 5 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old is already closing in on 600 receiving yards so far this season, and he's up to seven touchdowns through five weeks. In addition to helping keep the Seahawks in a prime spot for a playoff push, Smith-Njigba is living up to the hype that came with his mid-first-round draft capital in redraft leagues. It is worth noting that Smith-Njigba did briefly exit Sunday's game with an apparent leg injury. He returned to the contest and continued to play at a remarkable level, but it will be something worth monitoring as the Seahawks publish their practice participation reports ahead of Week 6 against the Denver Broncos.
