Former Vikings standout goes viral in the worst way

Michael Peterson is a former collegiate football player who has covered the NFL at SB Nation since 2017. Michael's areas of expertise include breaking news, opinion, and NFL draft coverage.

Former Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs played five seasons in Minnesota before ultimately being traded to the Bills. The best season of his career came in that first year with Buffalo when he recorded career highs of 127 receptions and 1,535 yards. At the same time, that was the same year the Vikings drafted Justin Jefferson so as far as everyone was concerned, it was a true win-win for both sides.
