Diggs has been managing a hamstring issue that sidelined him for Week 5. After not practicing at all last week, he progressed to two limited practices in Week 6 before receiving a questionable designation on Saturday.
Here is the latest information on Diggs’ chances to play in the Monday night game against the 49ers.
Is Stefon Diggs playing tonight?
Diggs appears to be trending toward taking the field. His two limited practices to cap the week indicate positive movement, and video from practice circulating on social media showed him moving well, which adds to the optimism about his status.
Final confirmation will come around 6:45 p.m. ET when the Commanders release their inactive list ahead of kickoff.
Stefon Diggs fantasy advice
Diggs has struggled a bit for yardage this season, with no single game surpassing 55 receiving yards. What has kept him relevant are his three touchdowns, all scored in the two games he has played with quarterback Jayden Daniels this season, totaling 102 receiving yards across those contests.
Before Week 5’s absence, Diggs ranked as a top-20 wide receiver, making him a flexible option in many fantasy formats. However, the upcoming matchup is challenging. The 49ers’ defense is allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season and is tied for the 13th-fewest receiving touchdowns allowed to the position.
Given the combination of a potentially limited role due to lingering injury concerns and a tough matchup, Diggs is a risky fantasy play this week.
Verdict: Sit (if you’re leaning toward cautious lineup decisions)
