2023 Fantasy Outlook
Each of Diggs' three years in Buffalo has resulted in more receiving yards and more catches than any of his five seasons in Minnesota. Last year, he had a career high for touchdowns and his second-most yards, rebounding from a 2021 in which his volume remained plentiful but his efficiency took a hit. Overall, the three years in Buffalo have yielded averages of 112.7 catches for 1,396.3 yards and 9.7 touchdowns, with the Bills' offense otherwise relying on complementary guys like WR Gabriel Davis and TE Dawson Knox, both of whom demand some respect from defenses without seriously threatening Diggs' volume. The same can probably be said of 2022 fifth-round pick Khalil Shakir, a promising prospect who will jockey with free-agent signings Trent Sherfield and Deonte Harty for playing time as the WR3. Diggs turns 30 in November and could start to slow soon, but there were no signs of it last season and no offseason transactions to threaten his consistent volume in the range of 9-10 targets per game.

Eligible for free agency in 2025
Diggs agreed to a one-year, $22.52 million restructured contract with the Texans on Thursday, enabling the wideout to become a free agent after the 2024 season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Before he was traded to the Texans on Wednesday, Diggs had been on the Bills' books through the 2027 season after signing a four-year, $96 million contract extension in April 2022. Schefter notes that the Texans took $3.5 million that was guaranteed to Diggs in 2025 and shifted it to this coming season while enabling the wideout to hit free agency next offseason, when he'll be 31 years old. With the reported contract adjustment, Schefter notes that the Texans anticipate getting a highly motivated version of Diggs, given that he'll be in position to seek another long-term deal. In his new locale, Diggs is slated to headline a Houston pass-catching corps that also features fellow wideouts Nico Collins and Tank Dell, as well as tight end Dalton Schultz and running back Joe MIxon. While Diggs will have some legitimate competition for targets, he should nonetheless see steady weekly volume from ascending second-year quarterback C.J. Stroud.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for free agency in '25
Diggs, who was traded from the Bills to the Texans on Wednesday, had the final three years of his existing contract voided by Houston in order to allow him to be a free agent next offseason, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The star wideout also got a raise to $22.5 million for 2024, as the Texans moved the $3.5 million guaranteed to him for 2025 and moved it into his salary for the coming season. The voiding of the back end of the deal appears to have been strategic from more than just a salary cap perspective -- the Texans now anticipate Diggs will be highly motivated in the coming campaign since he'll be playing for a new long-term contract.

2015
Diggs' second year in Buffalo didn't quite match his first, but he scored two more touchdowns in 2021 and still finished top 8 among WRs in PPR and standard scoring. The biggest difference, statistically, was his catch rate, with Diggs dropping from a career-high 76.5 percent in 2021 to the second-lowest mark of his career in 2022 (62.8 percent). His average target depth rose, but only from 10.1 yards to 11.1, and he actually had three fewer drops (yet 24 fewer catches) on
only two fewer targets. Part of that is simply regression to the mean, and another part is a less
accurate season from Josh Allen, whose completion percentage dropped from 69.2 in 2020 to
63.3. Of course, Allen was still one of the top QBs in the league, and he played his best football
in the playoffs with nine TD passes in two games. Diggs should again benefit from superb team
context in 2022, though it perhaps takes a hit with former OC Brian Daboll moving on to the
Giants. The Bills hope it'll be a smooth transition under in-house promotion Ken Dorsey, who
likely could have landed another coordinator job. Other than that, Diggs could have a bit more
competition for targets, with Gabriel Davis replacing Emmanuel Sanders as the No. 2 receiver
and Jamison Crowder taking over for Cole Beasley in the slot. It's a well-rounded group of
receivers, and still one where Diggs is the top dog.
