C.J. Stroud Advocates for Texans to Re-Sign Stefon Diggs in Free Agency
The quarterback emphasizes Diggs' leadership and potential while Houston faces decisions on its receiver lineup after an injury-plagued season.
- Stefon Diggs, a four-time Pro Bowler, is entering free agency after a season-ending ACL injury limited him to eight games with the Houston Texans.
- Quarterback C.J. Stroud has publicly expressed his desire for Diggs to return, highlighting their developing on-field rapport and Diggs' leadership qualities.
- Diggs recorded 47 receptions for 496 yards and four total touchdowns during his abbreviated season, ranking among the Texans' top receivers despite missing 11 games.
- Houston's wide receiver corps faces uncertainty, with Tank Dell also sidelined by a major knee injury and limited cap space complicating offseason roster moves.
- Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans and GM Nick Caserio have yet to commit to pursuing Diggs, as they evaluate the roster and free agency options.
