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.

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.

The Patriots ruled out RB Rhamondre Stevenson, WR Kayshon Boutte, and TE Austin Hooper for Thursday night vs. the Jets.

This will be another RB2 week for Henderson, while Diggs stays in his WR2 role, with Hollins and Douglas operating as desperation FLEX plays.

The Patriots have ruled out RB Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and WR Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) for Sunday vs. the Bucs.

This locks Henderson back into an RB2 role, while Jennings can be considered a desperation FLEX in the RB4 range.

Diggs should remain a WR2 option, and Douglas is in that same desperation FLEX territroy as a WR4.

WR Kayshon Boutte (hamstring), LB Christian Elliss (hip) and RB Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) aren’t scheduled to practice today, according to Mike Vrabel.

It's looking like another week of Henderson's backfield, which would put him in solid RB1 range, while Jennings will handle enough of the short-yardage work to put him in high-RB4 range.

If Boutte misses, we can consider Diggs a WR2 yet again, while Pop Douglas is in FLEX consideration as a WR4.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs, coming off a torn ACL, isn't listed on the team's initial injury report, confirming he's on track to play Sunday vs. Las Vegas.

Looks like it'll be all clear for Diggs to.head out there and operate as a fringe WR2/3 in his first game as a Patriot.

Mike Vrabel will make his debut as the Patriots head coach against the Raiders this Sunday and it looks like Stefon Diggs will be doing the same at wide receiver.

“As of today, he’ll be out there,” Vrabel said on WEEI, via Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.

Diggs tore his ACL while playing for the Texans last year and signed with New England as a free agent this offseason, the story said. He did not play in the preseason, but his rehab went well enough that he was practicing without limitations throughout training camp and Vrabel said on Tuesday morning that the veteran wideout is on track to play in Week 1, the story went on to say. Diggs is ranked 37th among our WRs, and while his age is a concern (31), his lack of target competition should work in his favor.

Diggs tore his ACL back in Week 8 last year, and so far seems to be on track to start the season, not suffering any setback as far as reports have indicated at least. Diggs is poised to be the Pats top target this season among a group of relatively young WRs. At least on our depth chart, rookie Williams is second followed by Douglas and Boutte. Overall we have Diggs 37th on our WR list and he should be available starting late in the seventh round of drafts.

Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs did not play in the preseason opener for what head coach Mike Vrabel described as a coach's decision. But Patriots wide receivers coach Todd Downing says that decision in no way reflects any concerns about Diggs' status as he recovers from a torn ACL.

"I think where he’s at in his process right now is where we want him to be," Downing said. "He’s working hard when he’s out there with his reps and you see him making some plays. The big thing with him is understanding that we can’t confuse results with the process. So if there's a day he doesn’t have a whole bunch of production, that doesn’t mean he didn’t do his job and get open."

Diggs has been cleared for full participation in practice, and Downing said that Diggs is doing what the Patriots want him to do, even when not playing in the preseason or sometimes not getting a lot of balls thrown his way in practice, according to the story. The story said the team wants him to continue to learn the system and be where he's supposed to be. Diggs is our WR39, and available in the late 7th round.

Just under nine months after Stefon Diggs tore his ACL, the New England Patriots cleared their biggest offseason acquisition for full participation in training camp, league sources said Tuesday. The team’s training camp opens Wednesday.

The story went on to say the team will, of course, monitor his reps early on. The story added Diggs has looked strong in his return after tearing his ACL last October while taking team reps with second-year QB Drake Maye. Diggs, 31, suffered the injury in Week 8 while playing for the Houston Texans. Diggs is expected to be the team's top target this season.

Wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk, a 2024 second-round pick out of Washington who had a rocky rookie season (12 catches, 87 yards, 2 TDs), is recovering from offseason shoulder surgery. Vrabel said he has been excited about how Polk has approached his rehabilitation, working on his lower-body strength.

There's no timetable for recovery here, but Polk certainly didn't need any setbacks after catching only 38.7% of his 31 targets as a 2024 rookie. He should be considered more of a Dynasty hold than a redraft option, particularly with the Patriots tied to a number of options in the '25 Draft class.
