Former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs sparked drama with a series of posts hinting at discontentment near the end of his tenure in Buffalo, but now could be using his social media to float the idea of a return.
An account connected to the former All-Pro wide receiver shared a post showing him wearing a Bills jersey, sparking speculation the free agent could consider a return to his former team. Diggs has remained on the open market since being released by the New England Patriots following their Super Bowl loss, and the post has sparked speculation that a Bills comeback could be in the cards.
Does Stefon Diggs Want to Return to the Bills?
The post showed up on an unnamed account that has long been connected to Diggs, sharing a video of him wearing a Bills jersey and a caption that floated the idea of returning.
“Iono might gotta get back in that 14…” the caption read.
Though Diggs did not comment officially on the post, several Bills reporters confirmed that it belongs to him.
“A Moore-Diggs-Shakir threesome would cure my sadness,” wrote Nate Geary, a Bills reporter with Buffalo’s WGR 550.
The account is also followed by some of Diggs’ former teammates with the Bills, including quarterback Josh Allen and running back Zack Moss.
Diggs used his social media to stir controversy during his final year-and-a-half with the Bills, hinting that he was unhappy with the team and wanted out of Buffalo. The posts came after Diggs blew up at Allen during a Super Bowl loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Bills ultimately traded Diggs to the Houston Texans in March 2024, where he spent one injury-shortened season before signing with the Patriots last year. Diggs showed that he fully recovered from the torn ACL, topping 1,000 yards and helping quarterback Drake Maye turn the corner as the team reached the Super Bowl.
The Bills have lacked a true No. 1 wide receiver since Diggs was traded, with the wide receiving corps struggling last season and opposing defenses ratcheting up the pressure on Allen as a result. The team already made a big investment in the group this offseason, trading for Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore and using a fourth-round pick on Skyler Bell.
Other Options for Stefon Diggs
Some NFL insiders have floated other potential landing spots for Diggs, including one top AFC rival. Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton noted that the Kansas City Chiefs could make a run at Diggs, especially after his legal issues were resolved with a not guilty verdict in an assault trial earlier this month.
“Chiefs wideout Rashee Rice missed significant time between 2024 and 2025 because of injuries and a six-game suspension. According to Matt Foster of KSHB 41 News, Rice violated his probation and has been ordered to serve a 30-day jail sentence,” Moton wrote. “Also, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Rice will be sidelined for two months following a ‘clean-up’ knee surgery. Kansas City could pursue a more reliable veteran receiver, such as Diggs or Deebo Samuel.”
