Stefon Diggs News
Thursday, October 8, 12:46 PM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring) is listed as a non-participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday, per the team's official injury report. Earlier reports indicated that Diggs was spotted back on the practice field, but it appears the veteran wideout was unable to log an official practice as he battles a hamstring injury. Diggs has been productive through four games so far in 2026, recording 18 catches for 170 yards and three touchdowns on 31 targets. Fellow veteran Washington wideout Terry McLaurin (hamstring) has also yet to practice this week due to a hamstring issue, so the Commanders could be without their top two pass-catchers in Week 5 against the New York Giants. If both Diggs and McLaurin are unavailable, rookie wide receiver Antonio Williams could be poised for a major workload increase on Sunday.

Michael Thomas News
Wednesday, September 11, 8:40 PM
The National Football League on Wednesday announced that it has lifted the suspension of free-agent wide receiver Michael Thomas. Thomas was suspended for the first game of the 2024 NFL season for an incident with a construction worker near his home last year. The fact that the 31-year-old remained without a team all offseason is a sign that he may struggle to latch on with an organization despite the fact that he's past his one-game suspension. Just several years ago, Thomas was the best receiver in the league, but injuries have limited him to 20 games since the start of the 2020 campaign, and he played in just 10 games with the New Orleans Saints last year before a knee injury ended his season. He caught 39 passes for 448 yards and one touchdown in 2023. Thomas belongs on the waiver wire in all leagues and is unlikely to be on the fantasy radar in 2024.
