For much of his NFL profession,\u00a0Stefon Diggs\u00a0<\/strong>has operated as his team\u2019s No. 1 receiver. That was actually the case in 2025, however the veteran free agent is eyeing a deal which is able to make him the No. 2 option along with his next employer.<\/p>\n <\/a>In a video posted to his YouTube channel, Diggs said his days as the highest option in a team\u2019s passing attack are likely over. He added, nevertheless, that he feels he can be the most effective WR2 within the NFL. Specifically, the four-time Pro Bowler said (via ESPN\u2019s Mike Reiss<\/a>), \u201cyou’ll be able to\u2019t name a No. 2 higher than me.\u201d<\/p>\n With training camps approaching, Diggs represents one in all several notable receivers still on the open market right now. The 32-year-old was released by the Patriots after one season in a move which was ultimately followed by the\u00a0Romeo Doubs\u00a0<\/strong>signing and the\u00a0A.J. Brown<\/strong> trade. A temporary trial stemming from a strangulation allegation resulted in a not guilty verdict, and the NFL is not going to issue a suspension under the non-public conduct policy.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s not a No. 2 on a team \u2014 let\u2019s presumably give people the credit and just say, \u2018OK, you must take the No. 1 spot away,’\u201d\u00a0<\/em>Diggs added.\u00a0\u201cName your No. 2 receiver immediately, and tell me how much he makes, after which my last query is: Is he higher than me?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Various teams could stand so as to add a veteran of 11 seasons and 7 1,000-yard campaigns late in free agency. Diggs has expressed a willingness to play for the Commanders, even though it stays to be seen if interest is mutual within the case of the Maryland alum. Washington has nearly $44MM in cap space, and several other other potential suitors could easily afford a one-year Diggs contract.<\/p>\n During his lone season in Latest England, Diggs managed to stay healthy after an ACL tear cut his Texans campaign short in 2024. His 85-1,013-4 statline helped the Patriots reach the Super Bowl, and expectations for one more productive yr will probably be at the very least relatively high no matter where he lands. Given how soon camps will open across the league, Diggs may soon have his next deal in hand.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For much of his NFL profession,\u00a0Stefon Diggs\u00a0has operated as his team\u2019s No. 1 receiver.
