Stefon Diggs News
Sunday, July 26, 9:00 AM
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler says that the Washington Commanders are an intriguing fit to veteran free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs, primarily because they possess a strong young quarterback in Jayden Daniels. Diggs has reportedly attracted interest from at least five teams recently, and he's highly motivated going into the 2026 season since he's not rehabbing an ACL injury like he was last offseason. Despite playing around 55% of the offensive snaps in 2025 with the New England Patriots, the 32-year-old four-time Pro Bowler led the team in receiving and posted his seventh 1,000-yard season while scoring four times on 85 receptions in 17 regular-season starts in 2025. There have been rumors all offseason that the Commanders are looking to sign another receiver to give them more depth behind WR1 Terry McLaurin, but so far, they haven't pulled the trigger. Nothing is imminent with Diggs, but he should land with a new team before the start of the 2026 campaign, which will be his 12th in the NFL. Heading to D.C. will probably give him the best opportunity to regain fantasy football value alongside McLaurin.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Tuesday, July 28, 5:48 AM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards in 2025 on his way to winning the Offensive Player of the Year Award and finishing the year as the fantasy WR2, but he is not simply resting on his laurels. In discussing his expectations for the upcoming season, Smith-Njigba told reporters, "I want y'all to see different levels, almost a different player out there, and just kind of an upgraded version." The Seahawks were able to retain a remarkable number of starters from their Super Bowl-winning squad, but their biggest hit could come from the loss of offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, who schemed up big plays for Smith-Njigba through heavy motion and play action usage. With his 15.1 yards-per-reception average putting him in rarified air among players with more than 110 catches, Smith-Njigba is a possible regression candidate for 2026, but as the clear focal point of the Seahawks' offense, expectations remain high, and he is RotoBaller's WR3.
