Stefon Diggs News

At Least Five Teams Checking in on Stefon Diggs

Monday, July 13, 8:11 PM

At least five teams have been checking in on free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs nearly two weeks out from the start of NFL training camps, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Diggs had produced 1,013 yards, 85 catches, and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season starts for the New England Patriots last year, coming off an ACL tear and playing around 55% of the offensive snaps, and he feels like he can be even better due to offseason training with no injury concerns. Despite putting up his seventh 1,000-yard season in his 11th year in the league in 2025 and helping the Patriots get back to the Super Bowl, the 32-year-old veteran was cut early in the offseason for salary cap purposes. Diggs believes he's one of the best No. 2 wideouts in the league at this point of his career, if not the best, which is probably why he remains unsigned this late into the offseason. The four-time Pro Bowler is no longer in the prime of his career, but he could definitely still be fantasy relevant if he signs with the right team for the 2026 campaign. Stay tuned.

Ladd McConkey News

Ladd McConkey Has Strong Bounce-Back Appeal in Redraft Leagues

Sunday, July 12, 10:11 AM

The Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey did not come close to matching his rookie breakout last season, but the path back to a bigger year is still there. He finished 2025 with 66 catches for 789 yards and six touchdowns after going 82-1,149-7 as a rookie. Even with the drop, McConkey led the Chargers in receiving yards while sharing work with Keenan Allen, Quentin Johnston, Oronde Gadsden II, and Tre' Harris. Allen remains unsigned, and that matters after he paced the team with 81 receptions. Johnston and Gadsden are not going away, but McConkey should have a better shot to sit at the front of the target line if Allen does not return. Mike McDaniel's arrival only adds to the appeal. McConkey has already piled up 799 yards after the catch through two seasons, and his quickness should play well in an offense built around motion and easy touches. The hamstring strain needs to be checked once camp begins, though he expected to be ready. At WR20 in RotoBaller's rankings, McConkey is priced like a WR2 with room to climb.
