🏈 Fantasy impact

Monitor Diggs’ status before kickoff. If he is active, he is a risky flex option given the hamstring issue and a modest 9.4-point projection. If Diggs is out, McLaurin becomes the primary target; he is projected for 11.8 points. Antonio Williams could see more snaps and has a 6.0-point projection. In deeper leagues, Treylon Burks is a desperation play. On the other side, Mike Evans’ questionable tag makes him a high-upside but uncertain play; his projection is 16.4 points, but his availability must be confirmed.
