Cowboys Trade for Bills WR Stefon Diggs is a 'Need,' Says Brother Trevon
FRISCO - The Dallas Cowboys locker room is starting to mumble - if not grumble - about its desire to add "weapons,'' as CeeDee Lamb puts it, to the Dak Prescott-led offensive arsenal.
And Dallas' Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs has an even more specific idea.
“We need Cowboys Nation to go and help and tweet to get bro here,” Diggs told "Blogging the Boys.'' “We need everyone to know. We need to put it on notice that we need to get bro to Dallas.”
"Bro'' is of course Stefon Diggs of the Buffalo Bills, Trevon's older brother who is is coming off yet another monster season with the AFC powerhouse. Stefon this year totaled 108 passes for 1,429 yards and 11 touchdowns.
The Diggs Brothers in Dallas would be a heck of a story ...
But a seemingly impossible "get.''
And why? It was just in September when Stefon earned his new deal, a four-year, $96-million contract designed to keep the 28-year-old star in Buffalo until after the 2027 season. Meanwhile, though Stefon threw a bit of a tantrum after the Bills playoff loss to the Bengals - and still feels awful about it - see "We Let Down the World!'' - his relationship with QB Josh Allen and with the organization seems sound.
Stefon is willing to join his brother in one way, though - by playing with the idea.
“I always wanted to be with my brother. He knows that. He’s playing on the heartstrings a little bit,” Stefon said. “Cowboys Nation loves him so much. It’s weird because I grew up a Cowboys fan and I follow the Cowboys because of my brother and all that.''
So no, Stefon won't be joining the Cowboys any time soon. But there is a second option.
“In a perfect world, we’d be on the same team playing in the Super Bowl,” Stefon Diggs said. “But you know, if anything, we’ll play against each other (in a Super Bowl). I’ll take it any way I can get it.''
