Stefon Diggs Week 7 Outlook - Texans at Packers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Oct 19th 2024, 8:05pm EDT

Diggs is humming along as the WR8 in fantasy points per game. He has seen three deep targets and three red zone targets. Last week, without Nico Collins, he absorbed a 21.9% target share, a 43.6% air-yard share, and a 33.3% first-read share while playing more on the perimeter (70.4%). Green Bay has utilized single-high on 55.7% of their defensive snaps. Against single high, Digg is tied for the team lead with a 26% TPRR while leading the way with a 30.2% first read share and producing 2.33 YPRR (second on the team). Green Bay has allowed the 12th-highest PPR points per target. Diggs could be shadowed by Jaire Alexander (60% catch rate and 90.4 passer rating). Alexander has shadowed twice this season, following A.J. Brown and Calvin Ridley on 69.4-74.1% of their routes. Shadow coverage for Diggs here doesn't frighten me. This doesn't hurt his Week 7 outlook.
