Despite where he was drafted, he quickly emerged as a top wide receiver for the Vikings, and he went on to spend a total of five seasons in purple ND gold.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\">Unfortunately, his relationship with Minnesota reached a breaking point in the 2020 offseason and it resulted in the team trading him to the Buffalo Bills. Then all the Vikings did with one of the picks they acquired from the Bills was use it to select former LSU wide receiver Justin Jefferson in the 202 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n<p>Diggs went on to perform at an All-Pro level with the Bills, and Jefferson quickly developed into arguably\u00a0the best receiver in the entire NFL. It turned out to be a deal that benefited both franchises greatly in the end.<\/p>\n<p>Last season, Diggs appeared in eight games with the Houston Texans before tearing his ACL\u00a0in Week 8. His status with the Patriots for their upcoming regular-season opener in a few weeks is still uncertain, but he definitely showed out on Minnesota&#8217;s practice field on Wednesday that he&#8217;s at least close to being able to play when New England hosts the Las Vegas Raiders inside to open up the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It took Stefon Diggs one day to show Vikings fans he\u2019s still a walking highlight New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs | Eric Canha-Imagn Images &nbsp; It&#8217;s&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":77783,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-77782","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>AMAZING!!!
