Commanders consider signing Stefon Diggs after Chiefs injury scare
Summary

The Washington Commanders are contemplating a move for free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs, following an injury scare for Kansas City Chiefs receiver Xavier Worthy. During Saturday's practice, Worthy left the field on a cart due to a shoulder issue, raising concerns. However, reports indicate that Worthy's injury may not be serious. The Commanders, who need a second receiver beside Terry McLaurin, see Diggs as a suitable option, especially as other teams may soon require a top receiver due to injuries. The Commanders are set for a training camp practice on Monday, and general manager Adam Peters may assess the situation further.
