Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Rashid Shaheed

Sunday, October 19, 11:59 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) is active to face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday in Week 7. Diggs entered the weekend with a questionable tag due to a chest injury that kept him limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. The 31-year-old veteran pass-catcher upgraded to a full practice on Friday, though, and he's good to go against Tennessee. Kayshon Boutte and DeMario Douglas both came away with big games in last week's win over the Saints, with Diggs only going for three catches and 28 yards in Week 6. However, he had back-to-back 100-yard performances in Weeks 4 and 5, and he remains a key part of the Pats' passing attack led by improving second-year quarterback Drake Maye. Diggs currently leads the team in targets (37), catches (32), and receiving yards (387). Consider him a low-end WR2 for fantasy football.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed recorded four receptions for 28 yards on six targets in the Week 6 loss to the Patriots. The 28 yards marked a season low for Shaheed, who remains heavily dependent on the deep ball. Unfortunately, quarterback Spencer Rattler ranks just 28th in the league with six yards per attempt, limiting those big-play chances. Shaheed will look to rebound against a Bears defense that has allowed 213 passing yards per game, 15th-best in the league. He remains a touchdown-dependent, boom-or-bust option for Week 7.
