The Houston Texans took a gamble on trading for star wide receiver Stefon Diggs. Not only did they go all in on this year by restructuring his contract, but they also made a decision to go after a guy who has had issues on the Buffalo Bills before, whether it be with teammates or just having a poor attitude.
Let's not act like we haven't seen it. Diggs is a top-five wide receiver in the league, and the Texans became Super Bowl contenders when they traded for him, but we can be happy about that while also agreeing that he has had issues in the past.
That's why this is a gamble for the Texans. However, they believe it will work out, and they should believe that. From what we have seen, he is already trying to prove everyone wrong before he even plays a snap for the Texans in 2024.
He is already throwing and catching with his new quarterback, C.J. Stroud. No, really, he's throwing and catching. He threw an absolute dime to Stroud. He has posted a video of him working out and catching in his new Texans helmet.
Well, that's not going to be his actual helmet because the Texans are changing things up a bit and getting new uniforms, but he's been working out nonetheless. If this all works out, man, this is going to be fun to watch.
