Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs managed just 23 yards and no touchdowns on five catches in a 24-22 defeat Sunday at Green Bay. It was an all-around miserable day for the Houston passing game, which managed only 86 yards through the air. The passing struggles trickled down to the veteran receiver, who was targeted a team-high seven times without much to show for it. Diggs and the Texans will have a more favorable matchup in Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts.
Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs is in WR1 territory as he prepares to meet his old friends, the Green Bay Packers, during a Week 7 game at Lambeau Field. Houston will be without wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) for at least three more weeks, placing the 30-year-old veteran at the top of the food chain in a talented Texans offense. Diggs has caught at least five passes in every game this season and drawn 20% or more of Houston's targets four games in a row, making him a high-floor option against a Green Bay pass defense that ranks 26th in air yards allowed. The former Viking should be starting in all formats in Week 7.
Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs compiled another productive week with seven targets, six catches, 77 receiving yards, and a touchdown in Houston's 41-21 triumph on Sunday at New England. The 30-year-old found the end zone for the fourth time (three receiving, one rushing) in six games with Houston. Diggs has maintained consistently high usage in the Texans' offense, which carried over Sunday without the presence of top target Nico Collins (hamstring), who is now on injured reserve. The Maryland product has been a steady option week-in and week-out for Houston, which is now 5-1. The Texans will look to keep the trend going in Week 7 at Green Bay.
Now that Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) is on injured reserve, fellow receiver Stefon Diggs figures to be Houston's top pass-catching option ahead of a Week 6 game at New England. The 30-year-old plays a different role than Collins within the Houston offense, but an already good volume play (82% of snaps, 8.2 targets per game) could become even better in the coming weeks. Through five weeks, the Texans rank second in the NFL in passing yards per game. Even though Houston is playing a decent Patriots pass defense, Diggs deserves a starting lineup spot as a regular first read on a top passing offense.
Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs led the way for his offense with a team-high eight targets and 82 receiving yards on six catches in a 23-20 victory in Week 5 against the Buffalo Bills. The former Bill has been regularly involved for Houston so far this season, but became Houston's top receiving option once fellow wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) was ruled out for the game on Sunday. Diggs could become an even more intriguing fantasy option in the weeks to come if Collins misses time. The 4-1 Texans will look to keep rolling with a Week 6 visit to the New England Patriots.
