Wide receivers like the Miami Dolphins Tyreek Hill often hit the headlines for backing up their quarterback. Meanwhile, Buffalo Bills receiver Stefon Diggs got embroiled in a controversial drama with his quarterback, Josh Allen. Bills fans might not be thrilled to witness the troubled relationship between their QB and WR duo.
However, some off-season snaps ahead of the last season assured fans of the end of the brawl. While the alleged drama came to an end, Diggs continued to be in the limelight due to his social media posts.

When critics began to accuse Diggs of seeking attention with his social media drama, the wide receiver took a different approach. He shared a post highlighting his impressive statistics since joining the Bills four years ago. With impressive rankings among wide receivers in various categories, Diggs seemed to be subtly reminding everyone of his value to the team.

Stefon Diggs has been evasive when questioned about his future. He earlier hinted at the uncertainty surrounding his tenure with the Bills, stating, “I can’t tell you what the future holds, but I’m still being me,” to ESPN.
While Diggs has earned Pro Bowl honors in each of his three seasons with the Bills, his performance saw an unexpected decline during the latter half of the current season. This decline was particularly evident in the divisional round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, where he managed just three catches for 21 yards, his lowest output of the season. His brother, Trevon Diggs claimed that Stefon was not being utilized properly. However, some fans have begun to question Diggs’ performance, suggesting that he may be overrated in his role with the Bills.
Meanwhile, the receiver has four years remaining on his contract and a substantial salary of nearly $20 million per season. Any potential departure would mark a significant shift for both him and the team.
Stefon Diggs’ similar post trend during his Vikings exit
Stefon Diggs’ departure from the Minnesota Vikings in March 2020 was not without its drama and cryptic signals as well. His dissatisfaction with his role in the team’s offense became apparent through a series of actions that hinted at his desire for a change of scenery.
The wide receiver made headlines by skipping practice without informing his coaches. He initially attributed his absence to a cold. However, he later confessed that his discontent stemmed from the team’s shift towards a run-heavy offense, limiting his opportunities on the field.

The young star expressed frustration at the lack of transparency regarding his role, highlighting the importance of trust in professional relationships. His dissatisfaction peaked when he averaged a mere four targets per game in the early weeks of the 2019 season. It prompted him to seek an exit strategy from Minnesota.
The Vikings ultimately capitalized on Diggs’ trade value by securing four draft picks from the Bills, including a first-rounder. The move facilitated the selection of promising rookie Justin Jefferson. The Vikings are now happy with the move, as Jefferson was one of their main protagonists on the offensive side last season.
