Stefon Diggs was traded to the Houston Texans in April 2024 by the Buffalo Bills. He was not traded directly to the New England Patriots. Instead, after playing the 2024 season with the Texans, Diggs signed a free agent deal with the New England Patriots in March 2025. The contract with the Patriots is a three-year deal worth $69 million, including $26 million guaranteed. So, Diggs joined the Patriots as a free agent in March 2025, not via trade from the Bills or Texans to the Patriots.
