When Stefon Diggs finally found happiness in Houston after getting traded from the Bills in the summer. It looked like Diggs was on course to record yet another Pro Bowl year in the NFL. At the time of his ill-fated ACL injury in week 8. Diggs had 47 catches with 496 receiving yards to his name. He was turning out to be CJ Stroud’s go-to man before getting ruled out for the season.
Now, as he continues his rehab from an ACL injury. Diggs decided to share some insights into his journey back to the gridiron on the Good Football Football show. Well, the four-time Pro Bowler said, “He’s in a good spot right now in his rehab from ACL injury.” And that wasn’t the only update Diggs gave on his uncertain future in Houston.
You could be wondering why it is uncertain. To find that answer, you need to dig deep into his reworked contract with the Texans. When Houston acquired him by sending a second-round pick in 2025, they wanted him to make an instant impact. So the Texans gave Diggs a one-year contract with $22.52M guaranteed.

Maybe they were willing to sacrifice their fantasy points while waiting for Diggs to come back. As Diggs expressed, “It’s just a great thing for me to be involved in. It was a good way to kind of give back because that fantasy stuff is pretty serious.” But wait, here’s the catch you will have to prove with a screenshot: Diggs was on your fantasy team. Yeah, the pizzas aren’t coming through verbally, as Diggs added, “If you know anything about it, people kind of talk a lot of junk about it if you’re not producing any points. I thought this is a great opportunity that they could benefit from, even with me not playing.”
