Chiefs Defeat Bills in Divisional Round
In a stunning turn of events, the Buffalo Bills suffered a heartbreaking loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional round, with a final score of 27-24. This marked the third time in four years that the Chiefs knocked the Bills out of the playoffs. However, the focus has now shifted to the future of receiver Stefon Diggs in western New York.
Questions Surround Diggs’ Commitment to Buffalo
Diggs, who signed a four-year extension two years ago, is set to remain with the Bills until 2027. However, there have been concerns about his dedication to the team. Last year, he was mysteriously absent from the OTAs, raising eyebrows among fans and analysts.
Even during the season, there were hints of discontent. Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs, Stefon’s brother, took to social media to express his concern about his sibling’s situation. The Bills receiver has also been seen appearing unhappy on the sideline, and quarterback Josh Allen hinted at possible tensions between the two.
Uncertainty Surrounds Diggs’ Future
Despite his contract extension, Diggs did not sound fully committed to Buffalo when speaking ahead of the Pro Bowl Games in Florida. He expressed that while he is taking things day by day, there are a lot of changes happening, making it difficult to predict the future. However, he remains focused on putting in the work during the offseason and building on the team’s progress.
When asked about his readiness to move forward with the Bills, Diggs gave a somewhat ambiguous response, stating that he is prepared to go wherever the situation takes him.
Reflecting on the Season and Looking Ahead
Diggs faced criticism for dropping a crucial long pass in the divisional game against the Chiefs. This play ultimately contributed to Buffalo’s loss as their kicker missed a field goal shortly after. Despite acknowledging his disappointment in certain plays, Diggs emphasized the need to move forward and learn from the past.
Throughout the season, Diggs showcased his exceptional skills, surpassing 100 receiving yards five times in the first six games and scoring five touchdowns. However, his performance tapered off in the final 13 games, including the playoffs.
As the offseason progresses, the uncertainty surrounding Diggs’ future with the Bills remains a topic of discussion. Fans and the organization eagerly await further developments, hoping for a resolution that aligns with the team’s goals.
