Patriots | Stefon Diggs facing criminal charges Tue Dec 30, 12:25 PM

New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs has been charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges stemming from an incident Tuesday, Dec. 2. Diggs' attorney, Michael DiStefano, disclosed to the court that Diggs has made a financial offer to resolve the dispute with the alleged victim in this case. He is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, Jan. 23, just two days before the AFC Championship game is scheduled to be played.

Footballguys view: According to the Patriots, Diggs "categorically denies the allegations" against him -- despite the efforts to reach agreement on monetary resolution with the alleged victim. The Patriots (13-3) have their final regular-season game on Sunday against the Dolphins, then will be in the AFC playoffs. As Profootballtalk.com notes, the charges won't affect Diggs' ability to play in the 2025 postseason (and the team's statement suggests they won't either). The impediment, if any, to Diggs participating in the playoffs would come from the NFL, which could place him on paid leave. We'll watch for more on that.

Cardinals | Marvin Harrison may be available Tue Dec 30, 10:23 AM

Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (foot) suffered a foot injury during the Week 17 game but will be active for the Week 18 game if he is medically cleared to play, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon.

Footballguys view: Harrison has been dealing with a heel issue in recent weeks, which caused him to miss multiple games. He was questionable entering this past Sunday but played on a limited snap count, appearing in just 19 plays throughout the course of the game. When asked about Harrison playing against Los Angeles in Week 18, Gannon said: "If he's healthy enough to play, he'll play." The Cardinals will begin practice on Wednesday, so that's when we'll get our first official injury report for Week 18 -- though it feels like a good possibility Harrison might not be healthy enough to make it to Sunday.

Falcons | David Sills leads team in receiving Tue Dec 30, 01:42 AM

Rams | Puka Nacua scores on MNF Tue Dec 30, 12:18 AM

Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua had five receptions (on 10 targets) for 47 yards and a touchdown versus the Atlanta Falcons in Week 17.

Footballguys view: It wasn't Nacua's best game, but it was noteworthy. The former BYU standout officially surpassed 300 career receptions in just 43 games, making him the fastest player in NFL history to reach the mark. He broke the previous record held by Michael Thomas and Odell Beckham Jr., who each achieved the feat in 45 games. On the season, Nacua has compiled 119 receptions for 1,639 yards and nine touchdowns, averaging 13.8 yards per reception and 109.3 yards per game. Nacua sits at WR1 on the season after scoring 23.4 fantasy points per game.

Seahawks | Jaxon Smith-Njigba on verge of history Mon Dec 29, 08:42 PM

Seattle Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba has 1,709 receiving yards heading into Week 18 against the San Francisco 49ers. That's already the 14th-most yardage in NFL history. If he goes for at least 101 yards, he'd pass Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (1,809 in 2022) for the sixth-best season by a receiver. Detroit Lions WR Calvin Johnson leads all receivers with 1,964 yards in 2012, and teammate WR Cooper Kupp (1,947 in 2021) with the Rams.

Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown day-to-day Mon Dec 29, 02:44 PM

Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) is considered day-to-day because of his knee injury, according to head coach Dan Campbell.

Footballguys view: Campbell said the knee injury is only part of what St. Brown is dealing with, although it's not a long-term problem. If St. Brown can't play this week, it would be only the third game he's missed in his five seasons and the first since Week 5 of the 2023 season. But if he's healthy, Campbell's comments suggest he'll be on the field Sunday against Chicago, since the best players will play. Having St. Brown play gives Detroit its best chance to finish the season on a positive note, with four straight winning seasons, even though they missed the playoffs.

Bears | Luther Burden III injury not serious Mon Dec 29, 10:01 AM

Chicago Bears WR Luther Burden III (quadriceps) will undergo testing Monday, Dec. 29, but his quadriceps injury is not believed to be serious.

Footballguys view: Burden will undergo additional testing today. But even assuming he has avoided a serious injury, the expectation is that the Bears will rest the rookie for their regular-season finale against the Lions, with the hopes of him returning in the wild-card round of the playoffs. The belief is that top wideout Rome Odunze, who's missed the last few games due to a foot injury, will also be ready in time for the postseason.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Tez Johnson caught two passes (on two targets) for 19 yards in a Week 17 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

According to ESPN's Courtney Cronin, Burden was seen grabbing his left hamstring, making his way in for an X-ray after the game at Levi's Stadium. We'll be watching for more.
