NFL Insider links Stefon Diggs to AFC Contender

The NFL offseason may be ramping up with team workouts, but franchises are still looking to finalize their rosters. After an active free agency period and the NFL Draft, several teams continue searching for upgrades at key positions.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been linked to multiple wide receivers throughout the offseason. They may now have interest in a former division rival’s top target.

Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated recently provided an update on wide receiver Stefon Diggs’ free agency market. He named the Chiefs as one of several teams to watch.

Kansas City endured an uncharacteristically inconsistent season last year. Injuries piled up, close games slipped away, and the team failed to capitalize in situations it typically controls.

Diggs also could quickly develop strong chemistry with Mahomes and provide another reliable option in the passing game. Kansas City further strengthened its offense this offseason by adding Kenneth Walker III, a move designed to improve the rushing attack and balance the offense.

Other teams reportedly connected to Diggs include the Washington Commanders and Atlanta Falcons. With his legal issues now reportedly resolved following a court victory, interest in the veteran receiver could continue to grow.

Diggs is expected to sign with a new team in the near future. The biggest question now is where he will play during the 2026 NFL season.
