<p>The Minnesota Vikings employed Stefon Diggs for five years after drafting him in the fifth round out of Maryland. He had some incredible moments in purple, though none will ever be higher than the <a href=)
Minneapolis Miracle. For the first time on Sunday, he’ll return as an opponent.
It’s the Stefon Diggs Return Game
Stefon Diggs spent four seasons with the Buffalo Bills. He played against his former employer just one time. A 33-30 loss at Highmark Stadium on November 13, 2022. You can bet that the always-outspoken Diggs wasn’t thrilled with the result, but it wasn’t a reflection of his performance. The Buffalo wide receiver caught 12-of-16 targets for 128 yards.

<p>After forcing his way out of Buffalo, Diggs is <a href=)
now a member of the Houston Texans. When he enters U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, it will be the first time since he walked off the New Orleans Saints. Diggs played 68 games in that time span, which was a full career for many. You can bet there will be plenty of emotions.
Diggs has been essentially held in check through two games for the Texans. Quarterback C.J. Stroud has targeted him six times in each game. In both outings, he failed to crack 40 yards, although he does have a pair of touchdowns. The Texans have plenty of mouths to feed when it comes to the wide receiver position. Diggs will probably be in the ear of anyone who will listen, angling for additional looks on Sunday.
