The Buffalo Bills are reportedly finalizing a blockbuster trade that will send Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Wednesday (April 3).
"Blockbuster: Bills are finalizing a trade to send four-time Pro-Bowl WR Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans for draft-pick compensation, sources tell ESPN," Schefter wrote on his X account. "Compensation updates, per sources: Bills receive 2025 second-round pick via Minnesota. Texans receive Stefon Diggs and a 2024 sixth-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick."
Diggs was acquired by the Bills in a trade with the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for a first round pick -- which was used on All-Pro wide receiver Justin Jefferson -- as well as fifth and sixth round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft in March 2020. The former Maryland standout recorded more than 100 receptions and 1,000 yards -- which included an NFL best 127 receptions for 1,535 yards in 2020 -- during each of his four seasons in Buffalo.
Diggs has, however, shown frustration as the Bills have fallen short of Super Bowl aspirations throughout his tenure. In November, Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs, wrote, "Man 14 gotta get up outta there," referring to his older brother by his number, on his X account after the Bills' 24-22 upset loss to the Denver Broncos on 'Monday Night Football.'
Stefon Diggs was limited to just three receptions for 34 yards on five total targets during the 'MNF' loss, which was the Bills' third in four games and dropped the team to 5-5, before an inevitable late-season rally to earn the No. 2 seed in the AFC. Diggs was also noticeably frustrated during the Bills' AFC Divisional Round playoff loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in January 2023 and absent from the team's mandatory minicamp, which was reported to be over his role in the Buffalo's offense.
