What happened: The NFL assessed Diggs a $14,926 fine for the celebration penalty. The charge followed the scoring play that produced his first touchdown with the Commanders.

Why it matters: It adds another discipline note to Diggs' opening stretch in Washington and puts a cost on a moment that initially boosted the offense. The play traces back to his first Commanders touchdown, which already drew a flag on the field.

What to watch: Washington's next scheduled game has not started yet. Diggs' next chance to shift the focus back to the field comes with the Commanders' next offensive series.
