Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Matthew Golden

Wednesday, October 29, 9:49 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (ankle) was listed as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Diggs has been dealing with a chest injury throughout most of the season. Now, Diggs is dealing with an ankle problem, but it doesn't sound like a serious issue. Barring any setbacks, Diggs should be out there for the Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Diggs scored his first touchdown of the season last week. Despite the lack of scoring, Diggs has been a viable option most weeks. He should offer low-end WR2 value for this weekend's contest.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden has disappointed many fantasy managers this season, as he's felt like he was on the cusp of breaking out but hasn't. In Week 8 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Golden had one of his least productive fantasy outings this season, with three receptions for just four yards. Golden, the 2025 first-round pick, has just two games of five or more targets and has been a top 24 fantasy wide receiver just once through seven games. His involvement in the Packers' offense took another hit when Christian Watson played his first game of the season and immediately caught 4-of-4 targets for 85 yards. While the thought is that better days are certainly on the horizon for Golden, he can't be a starting option right now for fantasy managers in Week 9 against the Panthers until we see the Packers show true intent to involve Golden more in the offensive game plan.
