Stefon Diggs recommended to reunite with a former Vikings QB

Stefon Diggs, who once provided the Vikings with the Minneapolis Miracle, remains unsigned with just over a month to go before training camp. Although he is 31, Diggs is coming off an 85-catch, 1,013-yard, four-TD season with the New England Patriots and can still provide good value to an offense.

>ESPN's Aaron Schatz projects Diggs to head to the AFC West and sign with the Las Vegas Raiders, who may be starting Kirk Cousins to begin the 2026 season. Diggs and Cousins were teammates in Minnesota from 2018-19.

Diggs was the dependable No. 1 target who helped the Bills' Josh Allen significantly improve. Then he was the dependable No. 1 target who helped the Patriots' Drake Maye significantly improve. So why wait for Fernando Mendoza's second season to get him a dependable No. 1 target who can help him significantly improve? The Las Vegas receiver depth chart is severely lacking, and Diggs was still good enough to finish second among wideouts last season in ESPN Analytics' receiver score. This one seems like a no-brainer.

Schatz doesn't mention Cousins in his blurb, but it's very possible the 37-year-old begins the season under center. He is familiar with new head coach Klint Kubiak, who was the Vikings' quarterbacks coach in 2019, which overlapped with Diggs' time in Minnesota.

>With his legal issues behind him, Diggs should be on a roster once training camp begins. Some familiarity out west could help him acclimate to his fourth team in four years.
