The Buffalo Bills gave the NFL offseason its latest surprise, trading All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans for draft compensation.
But while Bills fan may not want to see Diggs in another uniform, there were rumors that he was on the trade block, and it’s not because of his contract situation. Talks of tension in the locker room, specifically with quarterback Josh Allen, have been made during his tenure.
That argument was furthered by The Athletic’s Tim Graham during his "Tim Graham and Friends" podcast, where he recalled a situation that occurred between Diggs and Allen after the Bills' Week 1 overtime loss to the New York Jets.
