Stefon Diggs Stands To Benefit From Chig Okonkwo Injury Absence

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys after leaving the Week 1 opener early and missing all practices this week. Okonkwo's absence leaves Ben Sinnott and John Bates as Washington's top tight ends, and is expected to push additional targets to wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs as the team adjusts its passing game plan in Dallas.
