Wideout Stefon Diggs managed to break his four-game streak without a touchdown in Week 15. The Minnesota Vikings’ third-year deep threat caught five passes for 30 yards and a touchdown. He also had one carry for seven yards in the blowout win over the Cincinnati Bengals. This was the lowest receiving effort Diggs has had since Week 8 in terms of yardage. He scored his last touchdown in Week 10 vs. Washington.
Fantasy football start/sit Week 16: What to do with Stefon Diggs
Diggs managed to score in an otherwise slow receiving game. We break down the fantasy implications.

The Vikings will likely pass the ball more against the Green Bay Packers Saturday. The Packers have been terrible against the pass this season. They have allowed the second-most touchdowns and 10th-most receiving yards to WRs in the league so far. Diggs missed the first matchup with the Packers in Week 6 with a groin injury. He scored in each game vs. the Packers last year.
Fantasy impact: Diggs trailed off after his injury in Week 5. He has not been the same really since. The Vikings also promoted Adam Thielen to the No. 1 receiver role while Diggs was sidelined. Thielen has been beasting since. Diggs faces another soft secondary in the Packers Saturday. He has more upsides than risk in Week 15.
