Stefon Diggs Poised for Second Straight Productive Game in Week 2?

Saturday, September 19, 7:00 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs had an encouraging game in his team's Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, recording four catches for 55 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. In his first game with the Commanders, Diggs out-targeted established Washington WR1 Terry McLaurin nine to four. In Week 2, the Commanders have a favorable matchup on paper against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys struggled to defend the pass in Week 1, allowing 7.9 yards per pass attempt and three passing touchdowns to the New York Giants. The Commanders will also be without tight end Chig Okonkwo (hamstring), which could increase Diggs' importance to the offense as a security blanket for quarterback Jayden Daniels in the middle of the field. Washington could look to get McLaurin more involved against Dallas, which may impact Diggs. Still, Diggs appears well-positioned for a steady role and profiles as a high-end WR3/flex option in Week 2.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Delivers Three Touchdowns in Enormous Win

Sunday, September 20, 8:37 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught nine of his 11 targets for 155 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Smith-Njigba was spectacular in the victory, offering top-tier production for backup quarterback Drew Lock in the absence of Sam Darnold (glute). The 24-year-old looks well on his way to ranking as the overall WR1 in PPR leagues this season, and he could defend his title as the Offensive Player of the Year. Through two games, he has 17 catches, 277 yards, and four touchdowns. Not only should managers be excited that Smith-Njigba has been playing so well, but also that he has been able to produce as a WR1 even with Lock as his quarterback. He remains a high-end WR1 every week, including Week 3 against the Washington Commanders.
