NFL free agency couldn’t go a week without a cryptic message from Stefon Diggs. The Buffalo Bills wide receiver could have indicated he wants to leave Buffalo (again) with an interesting social media post that could determine his future within the organization he has called home for the past four years.
To make things even more interesting, Diggs changed his Twitter bio to a photo of himself saying goodbye – which could indicate his last time playing for the Bills. Diggs sent a message with a heart emoji earlier Friday, which could be another indication that he’s done in Buffalo.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Diggs has caused drama in Buffalo in the last 15 months. Diggs was notably absent at the start of the Bills’ mandatory spring minicamp, a year after signing a $96 million contract extension. He told reporters after returning to work that “everything is fine”, suggesting that “everyone has family problems”. Bills quarterback Josh Allen and general manager Brandon Beane echoed that, saying Diggs remains a vital part of the Bills’ long-term plans.
Diggs has also engaged in some cryptic social media activity, leaving even more questions about his future. Maybe Bills and Diggs will reach a resolution this time.
One of the best wide receivers in Bills history, Diggs has four 1,000-yard seasons and four Pro Bowls during his four seasons in Buffalo. Diggs is coming off his worst season with the Bills, catching 107 passes for 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns, which was still good enough for a Pro Bowl season.
Diggs has the four best receiving seasons for a player in Bills history, and his 230 receptions are the most ever for a player in his first two seasons with a team. He is the first player in team history to lead the NFL in catches (127) and yards (1,535) in 2020, and he also led the league in both categories. Diggs also has the two best receiving yards seasons in team history and is tied for the franchise record for touchdowns in a season with 11.
Diggs has 445 catches for 5,372 yards and 37 touchdowns in his four seasons with Buffalo. He leads the NFL in receptions since the start of 2020 and is fourth in receiving yards. Since his trade to Buffalo, Diggs has become one of the best players in the game.
