Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs hadn't seen the end zone since Week 8, but that changed on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Diggs caught 3 of 4 targets for 55 yards and two touchdowns. He was the team's leading wide receiver for the week. Diggs was a part of quarterback Teddy Bridgewater's best career performance to date. Bridgewater connected with receivers for four touchdowns and ran the ball himself for an additional touchdown. Diggs and Bridgewater will hope to continue their offensive surge against the New York Giants in Week 16.
Fantasy football waiver wire, Week 16: Stefon Diggs shows up with two touchdowns

Fantasy impact: Diggs had the potential to be the biggest breakout receiver of the year early in the season, averaging over 10 targets through four games. His momentum sputtered after Week 8 and Diggs ultimately became an afterthought for fantasy owners. Oddly enough, the last time Diggs scored a touchdown this season was against the Bears. There just isn’t enough to suggest that Diggs can sustain any fantasy value despite the appealing match up against the Giants during many owners’ fantasy championship. He’s more of a WR4, but his Week 15 performances promises a glimmer of upside.
