Before the Buffalo Bills completed a trade this week sending wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans, One Bills Drive had signed the two-time All-Pro to a four-year contract extension. The first year of that extension began at the start of the 2024 NFL season.
Yet, despite what most have pointed out as a less-than-ideal numbers situation, general manager Brandon Beane made the decision to move on from Diggs before Diggs could even take part in mandatory offseason work.
Now, with Diggs having landed in Houston, news broke that the Texans decided wipe “out the final three years on Diggs’ contract, giving him the ability to become a free agent after this season,” per a tweet by Adam Schefter citing league sources who shared the information with ESPN.
