He only played 55% of New England’s snaps after coming off a torn ACL the previous year. Diggs led the Patriots in receiving and was instrumental in second-year quarterback Drake Maye’s progression in 2026. Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels was in the same draft class as Maye.Diggs joins a Washington wide receivers room led by Terry McLaurin. Diggs immediately becomes the Commanders’ No. 2 wide receiver, with a host of others battling for the No. 3 job. Treylon Burks, Luke McCaffrey, Dyami Brown, Jaylin Lane and rookie Antonio Williams have all flashed in training camp. One year ago, an injury to McLaurin decimated Washington’s receiver corps. However, even before the addition of Diggs, the group is much deeper in 2026 after the offseason additions of Diggs, Brown and Williams.
