Diggs, Bills agree to 4-year, $104 million extension
BUFFALO (UPI) — All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs and the Buffalo Bills agreed to terms on a four-year, $104 million contract extension.
Sources told ESPN, NFL Network and The Athletic about the extension Wednesday morning. Diggs is now under contract through the 2027 season, with a total value of $124.1 million on his deals.
His new contract features $70 million in guarantees.
Diggs, 28, totaled 103 catches for 1,225 yards and 10 touchdowns in 17 starts last season. The two-time Pro Bowl selection was an All-Pro in 2020, when he totaled a league-best 127 catches for 1,535 yards and eight scores in 16 games.
Diggs entered the league as a fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2015 NFL Draft. He joined the Bills through a 2020 trade. Diggs signed a five-year, $81 million contract extension in 2018 with the Vikings. He is now under contract through 2027.
The Bills were the No. 2 offense in the NFL last season, in terms of points and yards. They ranked No. 3 in points and No. 5 in yards in 2022.
Gabriel Davis and Jamison Crowder are expected to start alongside Diggs this season as the team’s top wide receivers. The Bills signed Crowder to a one-year deal last month.
The Bills will report April 19 for off-season workouts.
