Stefon Diggs News
Friday, November 6, 8:27 PM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs continues to find the end zone, scoring his fifth touchdown in six games in Week 8's win over the Eagles. Diggs isn't racking up the same volume of catches as he used to, but he remains a reliable target and a favorite in the red zone. The veteran could see an uptick in usage as another Washington wide receiver, Treylon Burks (foot), has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, though his role is likely to stay largely the same. The Rams have been a challenging matchup for opposing wide receivers, allowing the fifth-fewest points; however, the secondary will be without Jaylen Watson (shoulder) and possibly star corner Trent McDuffie (back) as well. Diggs hasn't topped 50 receiving yards since the season opener, but will have a good opportunity to top that line on Sunday. Diggs projects as a solid WR2 in a potentially high-scoring Week 9 matchup, ranking as RotoBaller's WR20.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Friday, November 6, 2:46 PM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba should have another huge week in Week 9 against the Arizona Cardinals. Smith-Njigba lit up the Cardinals for 155 yards and three touchdowns in Week 2, and he has not slowed down since then. The Cardinals are No. 22 against opposing wideouts in fantasy, not that the matchup has mattered for JSN this season. Smith-Njigba has only finished outside the top eight wide receivers once this season. Additionally, he has logged a staggering seven 100-yard games in eight outings. Seattle will be without Sam Darnold (quad) in Week 9 as well. Backup quarterbacks tend to heavily target their No. 1 wide receiver, which could mean JSN is in for even more volume. We have already seen Drew Lock (elbow) key in on Smith-Njigba in Weeks 1 and 2 in Darnold's absence. You can rest assured that Seattle's struggling offense should have a much-improved outing against this defense, and JSN will reap the benefits.
