Stefon Diggs News
Thursday, August 6, 10:30 AM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs reportedly drew interest from the Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas Raiders, and Miami Dolphins before signing with Washington, according to NFL Rumors. Diggs landed a one-year deal worth up to $12 million after catching 85 passes for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns across 17 games with New England last season. It was the seventh 1,000-yard campaign of his career and showed that the 32-year-old can still handle a significant role. Kansas City, Las Vegas, and Miami each entered the offseason with questions at wide receiver, but Diggs ultimately joins Terry McLaurin in a Washington offense led by Jayden Daniels. His arrival gives the Commanders another proven target while making it more difficult for Antonio Williams, Luke McCaffrey, and the rest of the receiver room to earn consistent opportunities.

Matthew Golden News
Sunday, August 2, 5:42 PM
In an interview with NFL Network's Stacey Dales, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love said he's looking forward to seeing wide receiver Matthew Golden as the "X-Receiver" in 2026. Love said, "[Golden] is locked in over there now at X, so I'm expecting big things. He's had a great training camp so far." With Romeo Doubs now in New England, Golden appears set to take over Doubs' role in the offense, while Christian Watson handles the Z and Jayden Reed will continue to operate as the slot receiver. The 2025 first-round pick had 361 yards on 29 receptions in 14 games last season, while playing just 53% of the snaps. With a larger workload coming for the former Texas Longhorn receiver, fantasy managers should be monitoring Golden in the late rounds of drafts.
