Stefon Diggs Projects As Top 20 WR Option in Week 9 Against Rams

Friday, November 6, 8:27 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs continues to find the end zone, scoring his fifth touchdown in six games in Week 8's win over the Eagles. Diggs isn't racking up the same volume of catches as he used to, but he remains a reliable target and a favorite in the red zone. The veteran could see an uptick in usage as another Washington wide receiver, Treylon Burks (foot), has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, though his role is likely to stay largely the same. The Rams have been a challenging matchup for opposing wide receivers, allowing the fifth-fewest points; however, the secondary will be without Jaylen Watson (shoulder) and possibly star corner Trent McDuffie (back) as well. Diggs hasn't topped 50 receiving yards since the season opener, but will have a good opportunity to top that line on Sunday. Diggs projects as a solid WR2 in a potentially high-scoring Week 9 matchup, ranking as RotoBaller's WR20.

Tank Dell Looking for More Targets After Successful Return

Saturday, November 7, 3:38 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell was able to return to the field in Week 7 after missing almost two full years recovering from a dislocated kneecap and a series of torn ligaments in his left knee. He caught his one target for a 43-yard gain and played just 11 offensive snaps. Dell's role is still uncertain with Marvin Harrison Jr., Xavier Hutchinson, and Kayshon Boutte all rotating with him for snaps behind Nico Collins. Dell will have a "natural progression in his workload" in the coming weeks, according to coach DeMeco Ryans, and as he ramps up, he could climb back to a regular fantasy role. Headed into Week 9 against the Chargers, though, he is too high-risk to count on in most formats, which is why he's only the WR72 in our RotoBaller projections for this week. He's worth stashing in deep leagues but is hard to start until he's more re-established.
