Commanders sign WR Stefon Diggs to one-year deal

Aug 05, 2026

Former Patriots WR Stefon Diggs is set to sign with the Commanders, sources say.

With an offseason at full health, Diggs is ready to hit the ground running as a key weapon for Jayden Daniels in Year 3. The QB-friendly WR should help.

Related Players: Terry McLaurin, Antonio Williams, Luke McCaffrey, Treylong Burks, Jayden Daniels

Fantasy Impact:

Washington is about as favorable a late-summer landing spot as Diggs could have found. He gets a strong quarterback in Daniels and a clear path to the No. 2 receiver role without being asked to operate as the unquestioned centerpiece of the passing game. Diggs should enter the rankings as a fantasy WR3 candidate, while Williams, McCaffrey and Burks all lose appeal. McLaurin’s ceiling takes a slight target-volume hit, although the overall improvement to Washington’s passing offense helps offset it.

Texans WR Tank Dell practices in pads for first time since 2024

Wide receiver Tank Dell took another step back toward the Texans lineup on Wednesday.

Reporters at Texans training camp shared photos and videos of Dell taking part in practice while wearing full pads. It’s the first time that Dell has practiced in pads since he suffered a severe knee injury in December 2024.

Dell was not placed on the physically unable to perform list at the start of camp, but the team has brought him along deliberately given how long he has been out of action.

Fantasy Impact:

This is an important milestone, but participating in a padded practice is only the beginning of Dell’s path back to fantasy relevance. Houston has added Higgins and Noel since Dell last played, leaving him with significant target competition behind Collins. Dell remains an intriguing late-round option in deep leagues, but his workload and explosiveness will need to be monitored throughout camp.

Fantasy Impact:

Looks as though the thumb will be a non-issue moving forward, but we'll keep an eye on things to see if any discomfort bothers him. Brown is currently locked in the mid-range WR1 conversation.
