Stefon Diggs is ready to start his career as a member of the Houston Texans… before then, he needed a let out a few thoughts on the Buffalo Bills first.

In a surprise move, the Bills traded Diggs to Houston this offseason. Because of the massive $30 million dead cap hit Buffalo takes on their salary cap to get rid of Diggs, it was a shocking move.

According to Diggs, all that happened because he wanted it to.

Diggs told GQ Sports that he wanted out to leave Buffalo. It was known that he wanted to leave the Minnesota Vikings which led to his initial arrival with the Bills, but Diggs is now being pretty frank that he wanted out.

“None of those teams wanted to get rid of me,” Diggs said.

In terms of the Bills, Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane was mostly coy about why the 30-year-old wideout was traded. But Beane did say it was what the team wanted, too.

“It was made in what we believe was the best interest of the Bills. We can go round and round — I don’t think I could frame it any better,” Beane said.

Now begs the question… why did Diggs want to be traded since, according to him, he made the first move here?

Diggs has some specific finger pointing and Joe Brady is the one on the other end of it.

Diggs said once Brady replaced Ken Dorsey as offensive coordinator in 2023 that he was not part of the game plan as much. He did not like that and was blunt.

While a player can handle such a situation a bit better, Diggs does have a point.

Over the first nine games of the 2023 season, Diggs appeared poised for a career year. Diggs had 70 catches for 834 yards and seven touchdowns during that spell, including going over 100 yards in four of the first five games of the campaign.

Diggs only had 37 grabs for 349 yards in his final eight games.

Much of that had to do with a larger emphasis on running the ball more under Brady’s watch… and that evidently led to Diggs’ departure and potentially a much spicier contest in Week 5 when the Bills visit the Texans.
