Bills trade WR Stefon Diggs to Texans for 2025 second-round draft pick

For the second time in his career, Stefon Diggs has been traded.

The Buffalo Bills are trading Diggs to the Houston Texans along with a 2024 sixth-round pick (No. 189 overall) and a 2025 fifth-rounder in exchange for a second-round selection in 2025, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Wednesday, per sources informed of the situation. The Bills have since announced the deal.

Following a 2020 trade from Minnesota, Diggs breached the 1,100-plus-yard receiving mark in each of his four seasons in Buffalo, including leading the NFL with 127 catches and 1,535 yards in his first season alongside Josh Allen.

Adding Diggs is a massive move for the Texans, who add another weapon for quarterback C.J. Stroud. The 30-year-old wideout joins Nico Collins and Tank Dell to form one of the best receiver trios in the NFL. Diggs' ability to win one-on-ones and get open off the line will give Stroud a reliable veteran to count on. All three receivers should complement each others well, giving offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik the ability to threaten defenses at every level.

Diggs' presence should also help ensure that new running back Joe Mixon sees light boxes for most of the season. Toss in tight end Dalton Schultz and a good offensive line, and the Houston offense is looking dyn-o-mite heading into the 2024 campaign.

Credit general manager Nick Caserio for making moves this offseason to take advantage of his young Pro Bowl quarterback. Stroud is set up to continue his upward trajectory after an award-winning rookie campaign.

In Buffalo, the club seemed ready to move on from the mercurial receiver.

For much of his run in Buffalo, Diggs was a target hog, with Allen looking his way often as Diggs churned out 5,372 yards and 37 TDs over
