While discussions are on the radar, Fowler noted the situation has not yet intensified toward a potential signing. Diggs, who has expressed interest in joining the Commanders, is looking for a short-term contract, as he turns 33 in November. Last season, he recorded 85 receptions for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns. The Commanders are in the process of rebuilding their roster, particularly focusing on defense, and adding a veteran receiver like Diggs could enhance their offense this season.
