NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs is set to sign a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders worth up to $12 million. Diggs joins the team to play alongside quarterback Jayden Daniels, following a period of speculation regarding the team's roster moves.
Why it matters
It is a significant personnel move in professional sports that impacts team dynamics and competitive outlook for the upcoming NFL season.
Wide receiver Stefon Diggs has found his next NFL team.
According to multiple reports, Diggs will sign with the Commanders. A report late last month indicated Diggs was intrigued by the chance to play with quarterback Jayden Daniels in Washington and he will now get a chance to do that.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the one-year deal will be worth up to $12 million.
The move to sign Diggs comes after the Commanders spent the offseason being mentioned as a landing spot for disgruntled 49ers wideout Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk openly discussed his desire to join the team, but Washington and San Francisco never made a trade and Aiyuk remains on the 49ers’ reserve/left squad list for the time being.
