Diggs enters Week 5 healthy with no injury designation against the Giants. He opened the season with 4 catches for 55 yards and a touchdown, but his only other recent outing shown was a 3-catch, 43-yard effort. At $5500, a return closer to that touchdown-game pace would justify the price in favorable matchup minutes.

Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs are both in question for Week 5, which could open up added offensive snaps elsewhere. If either sits, fantasy managers may look to Treylon Burks as a potential replacement option, though his role remains uncertain until the receivers' statuses are confirmed closer to kickoff.

Both receivers are dealing with their own injury issues, clouding the picture for a Commanders offense trying to turn around a 1-3 start. Their availability remains uncertain going forward.
