Stefon Diggs 2025 Fantasy Preview
2024: Diggs was top ten in every major receiving category last season before the Week 8 knee injury that ended his season. He saw his average depth of target and airs yards share plummet from his career averages, becoming an underneath checkdown option for CJ Stroud during his lone season with the Texans. He ranked seventh overall in ESPN’s open score, which measures a receiver’s ability to separate from defenders. Diggs finished the season with 47 grabs for 496 yards and three scores.
What’s changed: The Patriots this offseason signed Diggs to a three-year contract worth $69 million. Diggs has continued rehabbing his injured knee and should be a go for Week 1. The team also selected WR Kyle Williams out of Washington State.
Outlook: If he’s healthy and ready to roll for Week 1, Diggs should be the only game in town for Drake Maye. Diggs, who is reportedly trending toward being a full-go for the start of the regular season, is expected to operate primarily for the slot. The veteran could be a PPR machine even if the New England offense is as run-heavy as expected. Diggs will have virtually no competition for targets in 2025. He appears to be a solid value in all fantasy formats.
