2024 Fantasy Outlook
Viewed as one of the safest options on draft boards at this time last year, Diggs had become one of the more polarizing players for 2024 even before the Bills traded him to Houston in early April. He's now looking at top-notch target competition from Texans WRs Nico Collins and Tank Dell, after a mega-slump in the second half of 2023 left Diggs with his worst season-long stat line in four years with the Bills. His nosedive was unexpected, given that the first nine weeks of 2023 were perhaps the most productive stretch of his career (7.8 catches for 92.7 yards and 0.78 TDs on 10.8 targets). The rest of the Bills offense disappointed, however, so the team fired OC Ken Dorsey after Week 10 and replaced him with Joe Brady. Including the playoffs, Diggs had one TD in nine games under Brady and just two performances of more than 52 yards. His 27.3 percent target share in that stretch was ninth in the league and right in line with his 2020-22 usage, but the efficiency nosedived (5.2 YPT) and Buffalo ran the ball more often. That last part shouldn't be an issue in Houston with QB C.J. Stroud now surrounded by arguably the best group of pass catchers in the league. Even so, Diggs is looking at a major plunge in team share stats and is unlikely to match his 10-target-per-game Buffalo usage even if he's taking his slice from a huge passing-game pie. The Texans have TE Dalton Schultz and RB Joe Mixon projecting for a decent number of targets, in addition to Diggs, Dell and Collins competing for the WR looks. Read Past Outlooks

Goes on IR, done for season
The Texans placed Diggs (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Houston quickly moved Diggs off the 53-man roster after an MRI confirmed that the standout receiver had suffered a torn ACL in his right knee late in the third quarter of Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts. The Texans will look to get by with Tank Dell, Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods and John Metchie at wide receiver in their Week 9 matchup with the Jets on Thursday, but Nico Collins (hamstring) could come off IR in Week 10 and offset the loss of Diggs. The soon-to-be 31-year-old Diggs will head into free agency this offseason rehabbing from a major injury after producing a 47-496-3 line on 64 targets over his eight games with Houston.

Each of Diggs' three years in Buffalo has resulted in more receiving yards and more catches than any of his five seasons in Minnesota. Last year, he had a career high for touchdowns and his second-most yards, rebounding from a 2021 in which his volume remained plentiful but his efficiency took a hit. Overall, the three years in Buffalo have yielded averages of 112.7 catches for 1,396.3 yards and 9.7 touchdowns, with the Bills' offense otherwise relying on complementary guys like WR Gabriel Davis and TE Dawson Knox, both of whom demand some respect from defenses without seriously threatening Diggs' volume. The same can probably be said of 2022 fifth-round pick Khalil Shakir, a promising prospect who will jockey with free-agent signings Trent Sherfield and Deonte Harty for playing time as the WR3. Diggs turns 30 in November and could start to slow soon, but there were no signs of it last season and no offseason transactions to threaten his consistent volume in the range of 9-10 targets per game.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expanded role on tap
Diggs is expected to operate as the Texans' No. 1 receiver for at least the next four games following Nico Collins' placement on injured reserve Wednesday due to a hamstring issue, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Diggs served as a highly effective No. 1 receiver for multiple seasons in Buffalo, although he's filled a clear No. 2 role over his first five five games in Houston behind Collins. Diggs has produced a 31-315-2 receiving line and has also scored a rushing touchdown during his brief Texans tenure, but he should now be line for a bump over the already robust 8.2 targets per contest he's averaging on the season.
