The NFL free agency period continues to unfold, and one prominent name still available is veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs. After the Houston Texans opted not to re-sign him, the 31-year-old, coming off an ACL injury, is exploring his options. Among the most intriguing possibilities is a move to the Dallas Cowboys.
Diggs’s impressive career stats—over 857 receptions, 10,941 receiving yards, and 70 touchdowns in 144 games—speak for themselves. While he may no longer be a top-tier free agent in the same vein as his younger days, he remains a valuable asset. For the Cowboys, signing Diggs makes a lot of sense.
First and foremost, Diggs would provide crucial support to CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys’ primary receiving threat. At this stage of his career, and coming off a significant injury, Diggs is better suited to a role where he can complement a top receiver rather than carry the entire load. His presence would alleviate pressure on Lamb, creating more opportunities for both players.
Perhaps even more compelling is the potential for Stefon to play alongside his brother, Trevon Diggs. The prospect of the Diggs brothers uniting on the same NFL team is a captivating storyline and could be a significant draw for Stefon. The emotional appeal of playing with family, combined with the chance to contribute to a high-powered offense, makes Dallas a highly attractive destination. The Cowboys, looking to bolster their offense and add a veteran presence, could find that Stefon Diggs is the perfect fit.
