\u201cA Chiefs team used to deep playoff runs is coming off its first 10-loss season since a 2-14 debacle in 2012, and quarterback Patrick Mahomes is rehabbing the first major injury of his career\u2014an ACL tear that leaves his availability for the start of the 2026 campaign in doubt,\u201d Davenport wrote.<\/p>\n
Davenport suggested that Diggs would make sense, giving the offense a clear-cut No. 1 receiver.<\/p>\n
\u201cBringing in Stefon Diggs wouldn\u2019t be a weird move, though. The Chiefs need to add a wide receiver to a room that currently sports Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy and not much else. Kansas City has also made something of a habit of bringing in veteran wide receivers who were cast off by other teams.\u201d<\/p>\n
Diggs proved last season that he overcame the knee injury that cut short his 2024 season. He made 85 receptions for 1,013 yards with four touchdowns as he helped lead the New England Patriots<\/a> to a Super Bowl appearance.<\/p>\n Diggs has gotten into some off-the-field troubles that could complicate issues, however. He has been indicted on felony charges related to an alleged assault on a former personal chef.<\/p>\n Bills Making Wide Receiver Moves of Their Own<\/p>\n The Bills have seen significant changes to their own wide receiving corps since trading Diggs to the Houston Texans<\/a> in 2024. The team adopted an \u201ceverybody eats\u201d approach the next season, spreading the targets out to a wider group of pass catchers.<\/p>\n While that approach brought strong results for the team in 2024, the Bills struggled last season as their receiver group often failed to get separation from opposing defense and Josh Allen faced significant pressure.<\/p>\n The Bills have already begun to address the group, trading for Chicago Bears<\/a> receiver DJ Moore. Bills general manager Brandon Beane this week hinted that the team could be interested in using their first-round draft pick on another receiver.<\/p>\n WGR 550 reporter Sal Capaccio noted that Beane didn\u2019t get into specifics, but said the team was open to the idea.<\/p>\n
