Bills Want To Get Stefon Diggs Back On Track: 'Going To Need Him!'

The Buffalo Bills need their best receiver at the top of his game as the playoffs draw near.

Stefon Diggs has been one of the best and most-productive receivers in the NFL since joining the Buffalo Bills in 2020, but he's hit a bit of a cold streak lately.

After surpassing 100 receiving yards in five of his first six games this season, Diggs hasn't hit triple digits since Oct. 15. In the 10 games since then, he has just 476 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He's been especially quiet since the Bills came back from their bye week, as he hasn't hit 50 yards in any of the four games since then.

Despite Diggs' lack of production recently, Bills coach Sean McDermott still believes the three-time Pro Bowl selection is vital to their success.

“He’s a big factor for us. He brings so much energy and vibe to our team and to our offense,” McDermott said, per Pro Football Talk. “He’s a valued member of our team and particularly our offense and we’re going to need him down the stretch here.”

McDermott added that Diggs' recent dip is more due to opposing defenses paying more attention to him, rather than an intentional decision.

“It’s just Josh [Allen] going through his reads and going through his progressions,” McDermott said. “He hasn’t been as involved maybe as much as we would have liked the last couple games.”

With the playoffs right around the corner, and the Bills still fighting to get into said playoffs, getting Diggs back on track will be one of the top priorities on offense for Buffalo.
