The Buffalo Bills shocked the NFL world on Wednesday when they unexpectedly agreed to terms on a trade that will send star receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans after a year-plus of rumors and speculation.

While early reports from ESPN's Adam Schefter shared the details of the deal, the Bills officially revealed the terms of the trade a few hours after the news broke.

Here's the official trade, per the Bills' PR account on X (formerly Twitter):

"Agreed to terms on a trade with Houston that will send WR Stefon Diggs, a 6th round pick in 2024, and a 5th round pick in 2025 for a 2nd round pick in 2025," the Bills tweeted.

After it seemed like the drama would never end, Diggs' time in Buffalo has officially come to a close. Diggs finishes his four-year career in Orchard Park with four Pro Bowls, one All-Pro selection, 445 catches, 5,372 receiving yards and 37 touchdowns across 66 regular-season games. However, he ended this past season with 13 straight games of less than 100 yards.

It will obviously be interesting to see what general manager Brandon Beane, head coach Sean McDermott, and quarterback Josh Allen will have to say about the trade in the coming weeks ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft. Despite the drama Diggs created last offseason by not showing up for OTAs, the Bills made it clear that he was still the team's undoubted WR1.

Now, he'll help the rising Texans contend for a Super Bowl as the leader of a suddenly-deep receiving corps with Tank Dell and Nico Collins.
