Mandatory Credit: Troy Taormina-Imagn Images The New England Patriots are signing wide receiver Stefon Diggs to a three-year, $69 million deal, according to multiple reports.
The contract will reportedly include $26 million in guaranteed money.
Diggs is a two-time All-Pro and four-time Pro Bowl selection. Since entering the league in 2015, he is third in receptions (857), trailing only Travis Kelce (939) and Davante Adams (919). From 2018 to 2023, he posted six consecutive 1,000-yard seasons.
Diggs had 107 receptions for 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns for the Buffalo Bills in 2023. Last offseason, he was traded to the Houston Texans.
The 31-year-old got off to a fast start in Houston with 47 receptions for 496 yards and three touchdowns in eight games. However, his season was cut short, when he tore his ACL in Week 8.
The dynamic wideout will give young quarterback Drake Maye a reliable No. 1 target and improve the New England offense, which finished last in passing yards last season (2,995).
