There will be no Stefon Diggs for the Arizona Cardinals. The free agent receiver has agreed to a deal with the New England Patriots. He gets a three-year contract worth up to $69 million. We will find out in the days to come what the real money is for.
Diggs is recovering from a torn ACL and could be ready by training camp. He gives the Patriots a veteran, productive star receiver for young quarterback Drake Maye.
There had been no rumors that the Cardinals were interested in the 31-year-old Diggs, but he would have been a good addition.
After four consecutive Pro Bowl seasons with over 100 receptions, Diggs played in eight games for the Houston Texans in 2024 before his knee injury. He had 47 receptions for 496 yards and three touchdowns.
He will be the clear No. 1 receiver for the Patriots.
The Cardinals seem to be content with the receivers they have on the roster. They re-signed Zay Jones, tendered restricted free agent Greg Dortch and signed former Los Angeles Chargers receiver Simi Fehoko. They also have second-year players Marvin Harrison Jr., expected to be even more productive than his rookie season, Tejhaun Palmer and Xavier Weaver.
