As of now, the Texans are still waiting for the results of an MRI on Diggs' knee to determine the extent of the injury. But with Houston facing the Jets on Thursday on a short week, it would be a complete shock to see Diggs play in that game, even if he manages to avoid a serious injury.
Stefon Diggs Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 9
Assuming Diggs is out on Thursday night, the Texans will be very shorthanded at wide receiver as Nico Collins remains out with a hamstring injury as well.
Without their top two receivers, the Texans will turn to Tank Dell as the No. 1 receiver. Dell caught four passes for 35 yards and a score this week. After posting explosive numbers as a rookie, Dell hasn't been able to make major plays down the field this year.
TD STANDS FOR TANK DELL ‼️

Robert Woods and Xavier Hutchinson could see more usage as well, but the biggest beneficiary might be tight end Dalton Schultz, who had a season-high 52 yards against Indianapolis, catching four of his six targets. He is a low-end TE1 play with upside.
