After signing wide receiver Stefon Diggs to a big contract, here is the grade for the contract from the New England Patriots to the veteran NFL receiver.
The New England Patriots desperately needed to help out Drake Maye on the perimeter, and have finally gotten him some help in a big way, signing 31-year-old receiver Stefon Diggs.
The reported contract is for 3 years and $69 million with $26 million guaranteed. That seems like a lot of money on paper, but the Patriots had plenty of cap space and could use all the help they could get in the passing game for Drake Maye to avoid a sophomore slump.
Diggs is entering the 11th season of his career, where he has spent five seasons with the Minnesota Vikings after they drafted him in the fifth round, four seasons with the Buffalo Bills, and one season with the Houston Texans last year.
