Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Tank Dell

Saturday, October 11, 1:25 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been excellent lately, and he'll look to remain effective heading into Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints. Diggs has at least 100 yards in each of his last two games, including a phenomenal 10-catch, 146-yard performance against his old team, the Bills, last Sunday. The veteran receiver started slow this season but has suddenly broken out in a huge way, cementing himself as Drake Maye's favorite target. In addition to his track record, Diggs is a strong fantasy option for this week because of his matchup. We should see him thrive if he runs most of his routes out wide, as New Orleans has allowed the fewest fantasy points to slot receivers but the 10th-most fantasy points to perimeter receivers. He's a low-end WR2 for the time being.

The Houston Texans have yet to make an indication that wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) will return any time soon. Dell sustained a gruesome knee injury late last season, and there has been no update on his status. The sentiment surrounding the 25-year-old was that he'd likely miss the entirety of the 2025 season. While no news is good news -- insinuating that he hasn't had a setback in his recovery -- it's still a long shot that he'd be able to make his way back to the field by the end of the campaign. As of now, teammates Christian Kirk and Xavier Hutchinson will continue to operate behind the team's WR1, Nico Collins. However, rookies Jaylin Noel and Jayden Higgins could begin to push the veterans for playing time.
