Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Josh Downs

Friday, November 14, 12:21 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught nine of his 11 targets for 105 yards during Thursday's Week 11 victory over the New York Jets. The 31-year-old has been terrific lately, and even though his three-game touchdown streak came to an end Thursday, he still has five consecutive games with 10+ fantasy points (PPR). Diggs was on the field for 69.7 percent of the snaps in the victory, eclipsing his previous season-high by more than six percentage points. The increased involvement is a promising sign for fantasy managers, and so, too, is his continued success. The Patriots are on a roll, and their top pass catcher should continue to be deployed as a high-end WR2 heading into next week's battle against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs caught just one of his two targets for a three-yard gain in a 31-25 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin in Week 10. Downs was surprisingly quiet in the win as the Colts leaned on Tyler Warren and Alec Pierce in the passing attack. The veteran slot receiver saw a three-game touchdown streak come to an end, as well, in the contest. Overall, Downs has caught 36 passes for 316 yards and three touchdowns in nine games this season. He will be on bye in Week 11 before an important road matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12.
