What happened: The table Carnell Tate converted 8 of 9 and Stefon Diggs converted 7 of 9.

Why it matters: Collins totaled 1,117 yards on 71 catches in 15 games in 2025. Diggs totaled 1,013 yards on 85 catches in 17 games in 2025.

By the numbers: Collins 92.3% (12/13), Nacua 90.0% (9/10), Tate 88.9% (8/9), Diggs 77.8% (7/9) on contested targets in 2026.

What to watch: Tate's back issue and Diggs' next outing in Washington will test whether the rates hold.
