According to ESPN Insider Adam Schefter, former New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs recently said, "There is no WR2 in the NFL that is better than him." That got us thinking whether he was right or not. Turns out he wasn't. This is our list of NFL WR2s better than Stefon Diggs both in real life and for your fantasy football team.

Granted there are a few players on this list you could debate whether you think they should be on it and aren't or are on it and shouldn't be, this is not one of them. If not for having to play behind Ja'Marr Chase in Cincy, he would be an NFL and fantasy superstar. Higgins would be a WR1 on a ton of teams and is far better than Diggs is at this point in his career.
Over the past two seasons, Higgins has caught 21 touchdown passes, Diggs caught just 15 in the past three years. If given more volume, Higgins would be a stud and Diggs wouldn't see close to what Higgins sees if he was in an offense with Chase.
