Adam Koffler’s Week 2 fantasy starts/sits highlight Stefon Diggs, Bhayshul Tuten, Aaron Jones and Jaylen Waddle as solid starts, with several sleeper options listed.

Diggs' goal-post TD celebration costs Commanders a potential game-tying two-point try

Stefon Diggs celebrated a 10-yard TD by leaping onto the goal post, drawing a 15-yard penalty that prevented Washington from attempting a game-tying two-point conversion after Diggs’ score. The Commanders trailed 17-9, later made it 17-16 after an extra point, and ultimately lost 24-22 to the Eagles. Dan Quinn had planned to go for two, but the penalty forced the extra point; Diggs acknowledged the rule and the mistake afterward.

Daniels Shines in Commanders Camp, Sparking Playoff-Hopeful Hopes

Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels looked back to his 2024 form in training camp, delivering on-target passes and mobile runs in a joint practice with the Dolphins and fueling optimism that he can lead a healthier, deeper Commanders offense; Stefon Diggs has gelled quickly with Daniels as a top new target alongside Terry McLaurin, though last year’s injuries and the loss of left tackle Laremy Tunsil loom over the unit; the Dolphins’ Malik Willis struggled in practice, and Washington’s long-term outlook hinges on Daniels staying healthy and recapturing his early-career magic.

Diggs Chooses Commanders, Highlighting Chiefs' Thin WR Depth

Stefon Diggs chose the Washington Commanders over the Chiefs, Raiders and Dolphins, underscoring Kansas City's ongoing concerns about a thin, unproven wideout corps as training camp approaches. With Rashee Rice returning from knee surgery and other young receivers dealing with injuries or limited track records, KC faces a veteran-market pause that could spur late additions or a trade, though timing makes a mid-camp upgrade unlikely. Veach remains watchful, keeping tabs on the market while hoping the young players step up.

Diggs Debuts No. 18 with Commanders in First Practice

Stefon Diggs appeared in Friday's Washington Commanders practice wearing No. 18, marking his first on-field appearance with the team after signing.

Dolphins… Diggs talk fizzles as they chase cheaper WR options

Miami explored Stefon Diggs as a potential long-term answer at receiver, but talks didn’t lead to a deal and Diggs signed a one-year pact with Washington. With a thin WR corps and a developing QB in Malik Willis, the Dolphins are likely prioritizing cheaper veteran options and internal development over a high-priced add, while evaluating what they really have in Willis as camp progresses.

Commanders snag Diggs on a one-year deal to jump-start the offense

The Washington Commanders reportedly signed Stefon Diggs to a one-year deal after ESPN insider Adam Schefter revealed Peters moved quickly to secure him amid interest from the Chiefs, Dolphins, and Raiders. Washington identified Diggs as the top target long before, and this move aims to pair him with Terry McLaurin and enhance a potentially dynamic offense led by Jayden Daniels, while also emphasizing a younger, hungrier roster in 2026. Diggs’ return to a home market is seen as a short-term boost rather than a complete fix.

The Washington Commanders reportedly signed Stefon Diggs for up to $12 million, adding a high-end WR behind Terry McLaurin and likely ending Brandon Aiyuk’s prospects with Washington unless San Francisco releases him; Aiyuk’s rehab dispute and social posts have clouded his future with the 49ers, while Diggs’ addition solidifies Washington’s receiving corps.

Diggs Shake-Up Elevates Commanders' WR Competition Behind McLaurin

Stefon Diggs’ arrival strengthens Washington’s receivers and is expected to push him into the No. 2 role opposite Terry McLaurin, while McLaurin remains the alpha. Diggs is a veteran capable of heavy targeting, but may not play every down, and his presence reshuffles the depth chart, tightening battles for spots with Antonio Williams, Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey, Treylon Burks, and Dyami Brown. The team is shaping a six-to-seven-man WR rotation through training camp and preseason, with development and depth as the focus.
