Jalon Daniels vs. Steelers — Mobile Rookie Set for Third Straight Start
With Baker Mayfield listed as doubtful due to a thumb injury, head coach Todd Bowles confirmed Jalon Daniels will earn his third consecutive start. The rookie quarterback showed notable growth in pocket composure last week, leading the Buccaneers to a win while generating 78 rushing yards over his past two appearances.
Our weekly projection models 8.4 fantasy points alongside roughly 90 passing yards and 23 rushing yards against a tough Pittsburgh defense. Facing a low-scoring game environment with a 39.5 total, Daniels remains a volatile option best reserved for deep leagues or Superflex lineups.

Outlook Stefon Diggs
Stefon Diggs at San Francisco — Hamstring Concern Clouds High-Scoring Monday Night Tilt
Diggs missed practice time late last week due to a lingering hamstring injury after being held out in Week 5. When active, he operates as the primary slot receiver alongside Terry McLaurin in Washington's passing offense, but his practice status needs careful monitoring. Fantasy managers should check back frequently for updates heading toward Monday night's kickoff.
If he plays, our projections peg Diggs for around 4 receptions, 42 yards, and 9.9 fantasy points. Washington faces a pass-heavy game script as sizable road underdogs in a high-scoring environment, giving him sneaky upside. Still, the soft-tissue risk and Monday scheduling make him a risky Flex/Stream play.
