Stefon Diggs' Accelerated ACL Recovery Draws Patriots' Interest in Free Agency

The veteran wide receiver, recovering ahead of schedule, is being evaluated by multiple teams, with New England emerging as a potential landing spot.

Stefon Diggs, who suffered a torn ACL in October 2024, is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery, running at full speed and cutting without issues.
The New England Patriots recently hosted Diggs for a visit and are considering signing him to support rookie quarterback Drake Maye.
Diggs' age and injury history are significant concerns for teams, despite his proven track record as a six-time 1,000-yard receiver.
The Houston Texans have expressed interest in re-signing Diggs, while other teams, including the Chiefs and Cowboys, are monitoring his progress.
New England head coach Mike Vrabel, under pressure to revamp the Patriots' offense, sees Diggs as a potential WR1 to elevate the team’s performance.
