The Minnesota Vikings are listing Stefon Diggs as questionable vs. the Detroit Lions in Week 12. Diggs is not expected to be active for the game, according to ESPN reporter Adam Schefter.

Diggs is dealing with a knee injury that kept him out of practice on Tuesday and Wednesday this week following a limited session on Monday. The short weeks makes this is an iffy situation going into Thursday’s Thanksgiving clash of these NFC North rivals.

Head coach Mike Zimmer said he is unsure if Diggs will be active. The good news is this is the first Week 12 game, so if Diggs ends up being inactive, you can easily replace him in your light.

Fantasy Impact: If Diggs is active, Yahoo! ranks him as the 12th-best receiver in Week 12. He would face a Lions defense allowing the fifth-least fantasy points to receivers over the past five weeks.

Even if Diggs is active, he probably will be too limited to make a major impact in this game, so keep him benched this week.
