Stefon Diggs Misses Practice On Wednesday
5 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring) was held out of practice on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Courtney Cronin. Head coach Mike Zimmer said he anticipated he'd play on Sunday, but this is a situation to monitor closely leading up to game day. Diggs, assuming full health, is an upside WR2-play against an Atlanta Falcons Defense that surrendered the 27th-most passing yards per game in 2018. The Falcons don't have a cornerback that can cover him and they play a lot of man coverage, which is even more enticing considering Kirk Cousins had a 128.0 QBR when targeting Diggs in man coverage last season. There's a case to be made for Diggs as a top-12 play this week, and he's an excellent play in daily formats.
