Stefon Diggs: It will be hard to double anyone in this offense

Published August 7, 2026 12:08 PM Wide receiver Stefon Diggs got his first chance to work with the Commanders on Friday and his new teammates made a good first impression on him. Diggs said at a press conference that quarterback Jayden Daniels is a “superstar” and that wideout Terry McLaurin is a “hell of a player, playmaker” before moving on to other members of the club. He singled out rookie wide receiver Antonio Williams as a player who jumped out at him and mentioned tight end Chig Okonkwo as well while saying that he expects the offense to be a difficult one for teams to stop. “It’s good being around other players that can ball,” Diggs said. “It’s going to be hard to double somebody in this offense. You’ve got guys that can make plays and guys that can make plays out of the backfield. You’ve got a mobile quarterback. The biggest thing for me is just my commitment to the game. I play outside, I play inside, a little bit of the backfield if they let me.”In addition to feeling like he can bring a lot to the Commanders on the field, Diggs also said he plans to be a “beacon of light” as a leader who brings energy and a “dog mindset” to his new team. After a disappointing 2025, the Commanders will welcome a player and leader who can help them climb back up the standings this fall.
