Stefon Diggs Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 21/23 for 222 yards and two TDs, setting the franchise record for completion percentage in a game at 91.3%. Even Tom Brady never hit that mark in the regular season. Maye also helped his fantasy performance, going 8-62-0 on the ground.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs (chest) is active for today’s game vs. the Titans. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, so we don’t expect the chest issue to be a factor in this one.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs (chest) is expected to play vs. the Titans today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Diggs is listed as questionable but got in a full practice on Friday, so there never seemed to be much concern about his availability for this one. Use Diggs as you normally would in Week 7 fantasy lineups.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs (chest) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Titans. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, so we’re fully expecting him to play. But Diggs’ status is worth double checking on when we get New England’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs followed up last week’s 6-101-0 game with a 10-146-0 stat line. He excelled in the revenge game against the Buffalo Bills. Diggs did only play 50% of the Patriots snaps this week after 63% last week. But, he was much more involved in the gameplan than in the first three weeks of the season.

Diggs only averaged 48.6% of snaps over the first three weeks but played 72.1% in Week 4. That led to a 6-101-0 stat line on seven targets. He was second on the team in snaps (31) behind only Kayshon Boutte (34). Diggs is now 11 months removed from his ACL Tear last season and showed signs of getting back to 100% in this game.

The Patriots' Week 1 loss to the Raiders found Kayshon Boutte leading the WR corps across the board. His eight targets tied TE Hunter Henry for the team lead. Boutte's 6 receptions tied two others for the team lead. His 103 receiving yards beat his nearest teammate by 37. And Boutte led the group in both total snaps (58 of 71) and routes (44 of 53). No other Patriot reached 40 routes for the game.

"DeMario Douglas has been the Patriots’ best pass-catcher, and it isn’t close," insider Taylor Kyles writes a few days into training camp. Douglas looks comfortable in OC Josh McDaniels' offense, is creating tons of separation, and has built a strong rapport with QB Drake Maye, according to Kyles. "The third-year receiver is primed to be the latest in [OC Josh] McDaniels’ long line of slot studs," Kyles adds.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that Patriots WR Stefon Diggs has gained clearance for "full participation" at training camp. Diggs, of course, is working back from an October ACL tear. But New England checked out the knee before guaranteeing $25 million on Diggs' three-year deal in late March.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs (knee) avoided the PUP list to open training camp. That puts him on track to participate in some capacity when practices get going this coming week. More importantly, it makes him ineligible to be placed on the reserve PUP list to open the regular season, which would have knocked him out for at least the first four games.

NBC Sports Boston's Albert Breer says Patriots WR Stefon Diggs is "trending" to be ready for Week 1. He's working his way back from last October's torn ACL. Breer expects Diggs to open training camp on the PUP list but come off by the end of August.

Patriots WR Stefon Diggs is not in good standing with the team right now, according to the team's radio color analyst Scott Zolak. Video emerged last week of Diggs partying on a boat with what appeared to be illegal drugs. And Zolak says Diggs' issues aren't just with the boat. "There are some other things that I've heard that put some things in question," Zolak said. He added that releasing Diggs "is on the table" for New England.

The Patriots obviously knew when they signed WR Stefon Diggs that he was coming off a right ACL tear in October. ESPN's Mike Reiss reported shortly before that signing that Diggs was "ahead of schedule." Chad Graff of The Athletic, however, says Diggs' recovery timeline "could cause him to miss the start of the season."

WR Stefon Diggs is signing a three-year deal with the Patriots. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that it carries a max value of $69 million. ESPN's Adam Schefter adds that Diggs will get $26 million in guarantees. The agreement followed a Diggs visit that included a physical. The veteran WR tore his right ACL on Oct. 27.
