  • Hauls in TD in loss to Niners

    Diggs caught two of five targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 27-10 loss to the 49ers in the NFC divisional round.

    Analysis: He hauled in the Vikings' only TD of the day on a 41-yard strike from Kirk Cousins late in the first quarter, but the game mostly belonged to the Niners after that. Diggs finished the 2019 regular season with a career-high 1,130 yards, but he was used far more as a deep threat than he was in 2018 -- he caught 63 passes on 94 targets, a significant drop from the 102 grabs on 149 targets he saw in 2018, but made up for it by nearly doubling his YPT to 12.0. Signed through 2023, Diggs should…read more

  • Cleared to play

    Diggs (illness) is not listed on the Vikings' final injury report for Saturday's playoff game against the 49ers, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Diggs missed back-to-back practices Tuesday and Wednesday but was cleared to play after returning to the field Thursday. While he'll be good to go, fellow starting wideout Adam Thielen is listed as questionable for the contest after suffering an ankle injury during Wednesday's practice. Either way, Diggs will look to be more involved in his team's passing attack Saturday after being limited to two catches (on three targets) for 19 yards in last weekend's wild-card win over the Saints.

  • Back at practice

    Diggs (illness) returned to practice Thursday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Diggs had missed two days worth or practice due to an illness, but his return to the field Thursday puts him on track to suit up Saturday against the 49ers. The Vikings' final injury report of the week will reveal whether the wideout is listed as questionable for the contest, or minus an injury designation altogether.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Diggs (illness) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Despite Diggs having missed his second straight practice, coach Mike Zimmer indicated that he isn't concerned about the wideout's availability for Saturday''s divisional playoff game versus the 49ers. Diggs' status will be revisited again Thursday during the Vikings' final practice of the week. If he's able to put in a full workout, Diggs will have a good chance at avoiding a designation heading into the weekend.

  • Absent from practice again

    Diggs (illness) wasn't spotted at the portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Diggs sat out Tuesday's walk-through practice due to the illness and looks poised to go down as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report. He'll have one more opportunity to return to practice Thursday before the Vikings determine whether he'll carry a designation into Saturday's divisional-round contest against the 49ers.

  • Idle Tuesday with illness

    Diggs wasn't in attendance for Tuesday's walk-through practice due to an illness, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: After defeating the Saints in overtime Sunday, the Vikings are holding only a light workout to begin the week, as the team faces a quick turnaround for Saturday's divisional-round matchup with the 49ers. So long as Diggs returns to practice in some fashion Wednesday and/or Thursday, he'll likely enter the game without an injury designation.

  • Held in check by Saints

    Diggs caught two of three targets for 19 yards and carried twice for eight additional yards during Sunday's 26-20 wild-card win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Diggs saw his fair share of defensive coverage and struggled to get free against a talented New Orleans secondary. He didn't draw many targets and did little with the ones he did secure, recording a long gain of 10 yards on five touches. Still, Diggs converted a couple of big third downs and helped his team pull off an improbable road upset. He'll face another tough matchup next Saturday against the 49ers, but he should be involved nonetheless.

  • Lone bright spot in loss

    Diggs caught three of four targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 23-10 loss to the Packers. He also threw an incomplete pass on a failed trick play.

    Analysis: Diggs gave his team a 10-3 lead with a 21-yard touchdown in the second quarter, but it was all downhill from there, as Green Bay scored the next 20 points. He easily led the Vikings in receiving yards, as no teammate finished with more than 31. The 26-year-old receiver has 1,130 yards and six touchdowns heading into the Week 17 finale against Chicago, with half of those touchdowns coming in Week 6 against the Eagles.

  • Contributes 76 receiving yards

    Diggs caught four of six targets for 76 yards and rushed once for four yards during Sunday's 39-10 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Diggs led the team in targets, averaging 19.0 yards per catch thanks largely to his long gain of 46 yards. He could have had an even better stat line had the game remained competitive, but five turnovers from the home team greatly affected the game flow. Still, Diggs went over the 1,000-yard mark for the season and should be busier in next Monday's pivotal game against the Packers.

  • Targeted nine times

    Diggs hauled in six of his nine targets for 92 yards in the team's Week 14 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Diggs logged his second consecutive game with nine targets, hogging 31 percent of the team's total catchable passes. In addition to the volume, he recorded the game's longest play from scrimmage on a 44-yard reception just before halftime. This performance continued Diggs' inconsistent results, as he's now surpassed 90 receiving yards in two of his last five games. In the remaining three contests, he's combined to muster just 78 yards. More volatility in Diggs' performance could be in order if…read more

  • Quiet night in Week 13 loss

    Diggs secured four of nine targets for 25 yards in the Vikings' 37-30 loss to the Seahawks on Monday. He also rushed once for 27 yards.

    Analysis: Diggs was once again the recipient of plenty of extra defensive attention with Adam Thielen (hamstring) sidelined for the third straight game, and he was the intended receiver on a Kirk Cousins interception on the first play of the fourth quarter. Diggs was coming off a five-catch, 121-yard, one-touchdown effort versus the Broncos before the Week 12 bye, but his yardage tally Monday was his third lowest of the campaign. Diggs will hope to have his teammate back to draw some coverage away in a…read more

  • Goes off in second half

    Diggs caught all five of his targets for 121 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 27-23 win over Denver.

    Analysis: Diggs had his lone target of the first half called back for a penalty, so he was a blank slate heading into the second half. The Vikings did well to get him into rhythm early and, though fans might have questioned why Diggs was being given such generous cushions, he showed why midway through the fourth quarter when he burned the secondary on a double move for a 54-yard touchdown. Diggs has five touchdowns this season, but has scored them all in three games -- leaving himself scoreless in eight…read more

  • Another quiet game

    Diggs had three catches (six targets) for 49 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The Vikings featured a run-heavy gameplan against the Cowboys' tough pass D, which led to low usage for Diggs and the receiving options not named Dalvin Cook. The 25-year-old has really struggled over his last two contests (four catches for 53 yards combined), so the absence of Adam Thielen (hamstring) is likely leading to more attention being paid to the side of the field Diggs lines up on. The Vikings may stick to a run-first scheme next week against a Broncos defense that has been far more…read more

  • Shockingly shut down in loss

    Diggs brought in just one of four targets for four yards in the Vikings' 26-23 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.

    Analysis: Even with teammate Adam Thielen exiting the game in the first half after reinjuring his hamstring, Diggs was a complete non-factor in the contest. The speedy wideout was well contained by the Chiefs secondary all afternoon, and his receptions and receiving yardage were both season lows. Diggs had come into the contest with a three-game streak of 100-yard performances, so fantasy managers should expect a resurgence to some degree Week 10 versus the Cowboys.

  • Another stellar effort

    Diggs secured all seven targets for 143 yards in the Vikings' 19-9 win over the Redskins on Thursday. He also lost a fumble.

    Analysis: Diggs led both clubs in receptions and receiving yardage on the night and turned in three receptions of more than 30 yards in the process. After a brief bump in the road that even led to trade rumors earlier in the season, Diggs has roared back to put together three consecutive 100-yard efforts that have all consisted of seven-catch tallies. The 25-year-old will look to extend his hot streak in a Week 9 battle against the Chiefs a week from Sunday.

  • Explodes for 142 yards

    Diggs caught seven of eight targets for 142 yards during Sunday's 42-30 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Diggs led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards on the day, with a large chunk of his production coming on a 66-yard grab that set up a touchdown in the fourth quarter. He stepped up as a go-to option after Adam Thielen exited the contest early with a hamstring injury and exceeded 100 receiving yards for the third time in four games. Diggs makes for a fine fantasy option heading into Thursday's home matchup against the Redskins, and his stock could rise further if Thielen is forced…read more

  • Explodes for best game of season

    Diggs secured seven of 11 targets for 167 yards and three touchdowns in the Vikings' 38-20 win over the Eagles on Sunday. He also rushed twice for 18 yards.

    Analysis: The breakout game the Vikings, Diggs and fantasy managers had all been waiting for finally came for the speedy receiver, who got his day off to an outstanding start by shaking loose for touchdown receptions of 62 and 51 yards in the second quarter. Just as important, albeit not as spectacular, was Diggs' 11-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter, which extended Minnesota's lead to 31-20 at the time. The targets, yardage and touchdown tally were all high-water marks on the season for Diggs,…read more

  • Makes three catches

    Diggs caught three of four targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 28-10 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Faced with a favorable matchup, Diggs finished fourth on the team in catches while tying for third in targets and receiving yardage. He wasn't used often as the Vikings passed just 27 times, which surely isn't what he predicted after making his frustrations known for his lack of involvement before he skipped practice and meetings this past Monday and Wednesday. Diggs will face a favorable matchup next Sunday against the Eagles, but the circumstances surrounding him of late seem to be putting a…read more

  • Active Sunday, as expected

    Diggs is listed as active for Sunday's road game against the Giants.

    Analysis: The ongoing saga with Diggs will simmer down for at least one day, as coach Mike Zimmer has deemed that the wide receiver is prepared to play after a week in which he missed team activities Monday and Wednesday. It's unclear if Diggs will retain his typical workload of 76.5 percent of the offensive snaps, and if he doesn't, the likes of Bisi Johnson, Laquon Treadwell and Davion Davis are on hand to pick up the slack.

  • Slated to be available Sunday

    Diggs is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Diggs didn't do himself any favors with coach Mike Zimmer this week, missing practice and meetings Wednesday before having perfect attendance Thursday and Friday. After the final session, Zimmer said he needs to "watch the tape" before making a decision on Diggs' availability, but it appears the wide receiver is good to go. The Vikings' receiving corps is typically the domain of Diggs and Adam Thielen, but the former's situation may have opened the door for Bisi Johnson, Laquon Treadwell and…read more

    Diggs will be traveling to Sunday's game against the Giants, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This shouldn't come as much of a surprise considering Diggs is expected to play Sunday, but it's more or less a confirmation of the designation following head coach Mike Zimmer's confusing comments Friday, suggesting he'd need to "watch the tape" before outright confirming Diggs as a starter. Diggs was fined for skipping meetings and practice earlier in the week, but it remains to be seen whether the Vikings plan to dish out any other punishment to their star receiver.

Coach Mike Zimmer said he doesn't know if the wide receiver will play in Sunday's game against the Giants, noting that he'd need to "watch the tape" from practice before making a decision.

    Coach Mike Zimmer said he doesn't know if Diggs will play in Sunday's game against the Giants, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

Diggs hinted that rumors of a trade request are accurate, but he also said he wants to play.

  • Practices in full after return

    Diggs (non-injury) practiced fully Thursday.

    Analysis: Diggs was away from the Vikings' team facility Wednesday with what was termed a "non-injury." Upon his return Thursday, he talked to the media about the absence, and in the process he told Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he'll play Sunday against the Giants "if they (the Vikings) let me." By getting in a full session, Diggs clearly is healthy, so a decision on his game-day status may come down to whether missed meetings hurt his preparation for Week 5.

    Diggs was present at the team facility for Thursday's practice and said he intends to play Sunday against the Giants "if [the Vikings] let me," Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Diggs was absent from Wednesday's practice and appeared on the Vikings' initial Week 5 report with a non-injury designation, but the wideout acknowledged an illness kept him from showing up. Even if Diggs was in fact under the weather, it's apparent that he's not fully satisfied with his standing in the organization, as he told the assembled media Thursday that "there's truth to all rumors" when asked about his ongoing friction with the Vikings.

    Analysis: On a positive note, Diggs isn't dealing with a health concern. Conversely, there's no telling what he's dealing with, making his status one to monitor closely as the week goes on. Next up for reps on the Vikings' wide receiver depth chart are Bisi Johnson, Laquon Treadwell and Davion Davis.

    Analysis: Tomasson relayed that a Vikings official was unable to specify the reason for Diggs' absence. All the way back in Week 1, Diggs tended to a hamstring injury but played 60 percent of the offensive snaps on his way to two catches for 37 yards. Wednesday's injury report will shed light on his current standing.

  • Tops century mark in loss

    Diggs caught all seven of his targets for 108 yards in Sunday's 16-6 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: He did most of his damage in the second half, and Diggs' ability to gain yards after the catch proved instrumental in Minnesota's only scoring drive of the afternoon late in the fourth quarter. The fifth-year receiver had only 101 yards coming into Week 4, so his breakout against one of the toughest defenses in the league should reassure those with fantasy shares in Diggs that he can still produce when he gets the chance. Questions about how often he'll get those chances in an offense focused…read more

  • Quiet during win over Raiders

    Diggs caught all three of his targets, producing 15 receiving yards during Sunday's 34-14 win against Oakland.

    Analysis: Diggs has compiled a total of six receptions through Minnesota's first three games of the season, and has been targeted fewer than four times in two of those three contests. It's nothing personal against the super-talented Diggs, of course, as the Vikings have just not been a high-volume passing attack to this point, with Kirk Cousins attempting fewer than 22 passes in Weeks 1 and 3. Diggs will have a tough time getting things going in Week 4, facing a Chicago defense that to this point has…read more

    Diggs caught one of seven targets for a 49-yard touchdown during Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Although Diggs struggled to hook up with Kirk Cousins for most of the day, the two did connect on a beautiful deep ball which resulted in a score in the fourth quarter. While the touchdown strike is indicative of Diggs' ability, it is somewhat concerning from a fantasy perspective that he's only made three receptions for 86 yards through the first two games of the season, though he did have a touchdown called back on Sunday due to a penalty and also just missed connecting on another deep ball.…read more

    Diggs hauled in both of his targets for 37 yards in Week 1 against Atlanta.

    Analysis: Diggs was productive when given a chance, as evidenced by a 31-yard reception late in third quarter. However, he -- along with the entire Vikings pass-catching corps-- was greatly limited as the team recorded only 10 pass attempts for the entire game. On a positive note, Diggs didn't appear bothered by the hamstring injury that caused him to be listed as questionable throughout the week, an encouraging takeaway from an otherwise disappointing performance.

    Analysis: Diggs' hamstring injury prevented him from practicing Wednesday and limited his activity Thursday and Friday, but that level of involvement was apparently enough for the wideout to earn a green light for Week 1. The Vikings haven't provided any indication that Diggs' snap count will be restricted on account of the injury, and he didn't appear to be slowed too much while running air routes prior to Sunday's contest, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.

    Analysis: Though head coach Mike Zimmer was non-committal regarding the wideout's status following Friday's practice, the limited work Diggs put in during the Vikings' final two sessions looks like it will be enough for him to earn clearance for Week 1. Fortunately for fantasy managers, Diggs and the Vikings will play as part of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. EDT slate, affording an opportunity to pivot to other options if the receiver ends up being ruled inactive.

    Diggs (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, with coach Mike Zimmer suggesting after Friday's practice that he isn't sure if the wide receiver will play, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Diggs returned to practice Thursday and finished out the week with a pair of limited sessions. He appears truly questionable, with Zimmer merely saying "we'll see" when reporters asked him about the wide receiver's availability for the season opener. We may not have a final decision until the Vikings release their inactive list around 11:30 a.m. ET on Sunday.

    Analysis: Held out Wednesday and limited Thursday, the 25-year-old wide receiver at least seems to have a shot at playing in Sunday's season opener against the Falcons. Another update will be available Friday afternoon when the Vikings release their final injury report.

  • Gets limited tag Thursday

    Diggs (hamstring) was limited at Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Seen with a helmet while going through individual drills, Diggs made his presence felt on the practice field one day removed from sitting out entirely. Perhaps the Vikings are easing him into Week 1 prep with the health of his hamstring in mind, but his listing on Friday's injury report will forecast his odds to play Sunday against the Falcons.

    Diggs (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Diggs was spotted with a helmet during individual drills at the portion of the session open to the media. While his presence is a positive sign for himself and the Vikings offense, his activity level won't be revealed until the team posts Thursday's injury report.

  • Held out with hamstring injury

    Diggs didn't practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: In a surprise development at the start of Wednesday's session, Diggs was the sole Viking not in uniform. With a hamstring injury in tow, it'll be interesting to see how he progresses through the remainder of Week 1 preparations. If he's limited or can't suit up Sunday against the Falcons, Chad Beebe, Bisi Johnson and Josh Doctson would be in line for targets behind top wide receiver Adam Thielen.

  • Sitting out practice

    Diggs wasn't in uniform during the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Mark Craig of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: The Vikings won't reveal the reason for Diggs' lack of work until they release their first injury report of the season later Wednesday. Through four years as a professional, he's missed at least one game in each campaign, so his status will be one to watch as Week 1 preparations roll along.

  • Targeted four times

    Diggs hauled in two of his four targets for 28 yards in the team's third preseason contest against Arizona on Saturday.

    Analysis: Diggs hauled Kirk Cousins' only significant completion of the day, a 29-yard reception on the team's final drive before the half. It comes as little surprise that he also led the team with four targets, especially given the absence of Adam Thielen (soreness). Diggs hasn't been particularly impressive this preseason, but given his track record he should be a regular producer on a Vikings' offense full of weapons.

  • Quiet day

    Diggs caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's preseason win over Seattle.

    Analysis: Adam Thielen was the Vikings' starting wideout that shined Sunday (three catches for 45 yards), but as we have seen over the past two seasons, there will be enough for both stars to eat over the course of the season. Look for Diggs to get more looks from his quarterback in Saturday's preseason matchup with the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Diggs missed the first round of OTAs and part of the second round while dealing with "house stuff" in the Washington D.C. area, per Chad Graff of The Athletic. The wideout still found plenty of time to work out and shouldn't miss a beat now that he's back with the Vikings.

    Diggs wasn't in attendance Wednesday for the Vikings' OTAs, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Diggs was the only healthy Vikings player not present and it's believed that he missed most, if not all, of the offseason program. The 25-year-old will enter the first season of the five-year, $72 million contract extension he inked last summer. The Vikings will open their mandatory minicamp June 11.

  • Piles up catches in loss

    Diggs brought in eight of 10 targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 24-10 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    Analysis: Diggs paced the Vikings in receptions, yardage and targets, while also notching a receiving score for the third straight game. The 25-year-old hadn't seen double-digit targets since Week 12, but the extra volume still led to a modest yardage total due to the majority of his grabs coming close to the line of scrimmage. Diggs finished 2018 with career highs in receptions (102), receiving yards (1,021) and touchdowns (nine), sending him into the offseason with plenty of momentum. With a year of…read more

  • Ties career high in touchdowns

    Diggs caught two of six targets for 10 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-9 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Diggs' eight-yard score in the second quarter raised his season touchdown total to eight, matching last year's career high. With Minnesota still battling for a playoff spot, Diggs will do his best to further improve on that number in Week 17 against the ferocious Bears defense.

  • Gets seventh receiving score

    Diggs caught four of seven targets for 49 yards and a touchdown while adding a nine-yard carry in Sunday's 41-17 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Diggs opened the scoring with a 13-yard touchdown just 3:20 into the contest, but he was pretty quiet the rest of the way as quarterback Kirk Cousins threw for just 215 yards. While Diggs has been held below 50 receiving yards twice in the past three games, he preceded this mediocre stretch with 322 yards over the previous three weeks and has four touchdowns over the past six games. Owners who have ridden him this far should continue to stick with Diggs against the Lions in Week 16.

  • Leads team through air

    Diggs caught four of six targets for 76 yards in Monday night's 21-7 loss to the Seahawks. He also rushed once for five yards.

    Analysis: Diggs' performance was highlighted by a 48-yard reception during the second half. Prior to that, the Vikings offense struggled mightily to move the ball and ultimately didn't muster any points until its final drive. Nonetheless, Diggs ended the evening as Minnesota's leader in the passing game, topping the 75-yard plateau for the fourth time in his last five games despite playing through a lingering knee ailment. The wideout will look to keep his strong stretch going Week 15 versus the Dolphins.

    Diggs (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's contest against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Diggs has been undergoing regular maintenance-related practice designations since late November and never appeared in any danger of missing Monday's contest. The 25-year-old will aim to build on his 2018 numbers against a Seattle defense that is allowing 250.7 passing yards per game.

    Diggs (knee) practiced in a limited fashion Friday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: If his practice regimen the last two weeks is any indication, the Vikings may keep Diggs on a maintenance plan as long as he's tending to a knee injury. In the sole game in which he played through the issue, he reeled in five of six targets for 49 yards Week 13 at New England. If Diggs does the same Monday in Seattle, he'll face the league's 19th-ranked pass defense (250.7 yards per game).

    Analysis: After one capped practice, Diggs has already matched his activity level from a week ago, when we went on to be active at New England and haul in five of his six targets for 49 yards. The target count equaled his second fewest of the season, so the fact he appears healthier this week could result in an increase in looks. Assuming he staves off the issue and suits up Sunday in Seattle, Diggs will be looking to produce against a defense that has allowed 8.4 YPT and 12 touchdowns to wide receivers…read more

  • Makes five catches

    Diggs (knee) caught all five of his targets for 49 yards during Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Diggs' availability was in question due to a nagging knee injury, but he progressed well enough during the week to suit up. He clearly wasn't at his best, but he still led the team in receiving yardage, though that was more a reflection of his team's inability to generate much offense through the air. Diggs will have an extra day to recuperate before next Monday's matchup with the Seahawks and should be on track to play, barring any setbacks during the week.

Along the way, he was optimistic he'd suit up until waking up Sunday morning with renewed swelling in his left knee. Ultimately, he completed a pregame warmup to fulfill his prediction, but the issue with swelling begs the question whether he'll make it through the contest unscathed.

    Diggs, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, had his injured left knee swell overnight and now needs to test it prior to the 4:25 p.m. EST kickoff before it's determined if he'll play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Diggs missed the first two days of practice this week before getting on the field Friday, albeit on a limited basis. It looked like he was on track to play as a result, but he now appears to be a true game-time decision. Check Diggs' status when the Vikings release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to kickoff.

It would be prudent to check back on Diggs' status when the Vikings release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. EST kickoff, but the wideout shouldn't face any restrictions if he is in fact cleared to play.

    Analysis: Diggs was held out of the first two practices of the week, but relayed his expectation of playing in Sunday's game after he was spotted running with a wrap around his left knee Thursday. He then made it back to practice Friday as a limited participant, which bolsters his odds of suiting up this weekend.

    Analysis: As expected, Diggs gets a questionable tag after returning to practice Friday in what appeared to be a limited capacity. He said he intends to play in the game despite missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, but it's probably best to treat him as a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. EST kickoff.

He did some running Thursday and was then spotted going through individual drills Friday. It's possible he increases his activity level once the session is closed off to the media, but it nonetheless seems likely the wideout will be listed as questionable when the final injury report is released later Friday.

The four-year vet likely doesn't need many (if any) practice reps to be ready for gameday, but a return in some capacity Friday would provide more confidence that his comments Thursday weren't in vain.

    Diggs (knee) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Diggs was instead relegated to working out on the side while sporting a wrap on the left knee, which he likely tweaked in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Packers. The wideout's lack of involvement in team drills for back-to-back days doesn't offer much confidence about his health heading into the Week 13 tilt with the Patriots. Diggs may need to turn in a full practice Friday to avoid an injury designation heading into the weekend.

    Diggs didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Diggs sat out the Vikings' Week 9 game against the Lions due to a rib injury but has otherwise been a beacon of health this season, maintaining weekly offensive snaps counts of roughly 60 per game. He's been targeted 29 times in two games since the aforementioned absence, which has translated to 21 receptions for 203 yards and two touchdowns. Perhaps he's receiving a veteran's day off, but Wednesday's injury report will declare the reason for his lack of activity.

    Diggs caught eight passes (11 targets) for 77 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 win over Green Bay. He added 12 more yards on one carry.

    Analysis: Adam Thielen (eight catches, 125 yards and a score) turned in the better fantasy line of the two, but Diggs led the team in targets for the third straight game. The Vikings decided to use the speedster's athleticism against a young but talented Packers secondary, getting Diggs the ball on a jet sweep and a trio of screen passes. All but one of the gadget plays worked, and the one that didn't got blown up for a 10-yard loss. After a midseason lull, Diggs has come alive averaging 10.3 receptions,…read more

  • Goes off in loss

    Diggs caught 13 passes (18 targets) for 126 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: The Vikings abandoned the run game after falling behind in the first half, and Diggs was the main beneficiary of Kirk Cousins' late offensive surge. The 24-year-old has now turned in back-to-back 100-plus-yard games with a touchdown in each (not counting the game he missed due to a rib injury). This recent stretch shows off Diggs' boom potential, but he still has a lower floor than fellow wideout Adam Thielen if we look at the season as a whole.

    Diggs (rib) isn't listed on the Vikings' final injury report for Sunday's game in Chicago.

    Analysis: There was never any much doubt regarding Diggs' availability after he came out of a bye week with full practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday. The Bears have been a tough opponent for quarterbacks, running backs and tight ends, but only seven teams have allowed wideouts to produce more receiving yards per game (177.6) this season. Chicago's dominance against the run (3.6 yards per carry) has often forced opponents to attempt a high volume of passes (37.4 per game, ninth-most in NFL). Diggs…read more

    Analysis: Held out of the Vikings' previous game Week 9 against the Lions due to a rib injury, Diggs is healthy on the other side of Minnesota's Week 10 bye. In conjunction with handling every practice rep Wednesday, the wideout told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that he was confident he "will play" Sunday at Chicago. With his ribs back to 100 percent, Diggs will take aim at a Bears defense that has allowed 8.2 yards per target and eight touchdowns to wide receivers in nine games this season.

After returning to practice Monday without incident, he should be at least a limited participant when the Vikings release their initial injury report Wednesday.

He'll presumably be no better than questionable when the Vikings release their final injury report for Sunday's home game against the Lions.
