As of October 6th, 2025, New England Patriots' star wide receiver Stefon Diggs is confirmed to play against the Buffalo Bills tonight. Diggs, who sustained an ACL tear while playing for the Houston Texans last season, has fully recovered and is ready to face his former team.
The Patriots have had a slow start to the new season, winning only two out of their first four matches. However, all eyes will be on Diggs as he takes the field against the Bills. Diggs, who spent time with the Bills, has expressed deep emotions about the upcoming matchup, citing the strong bonds and friendships he formed during his time there.
"I spent so much time there. I built a lot of bonds, a lot of friendships. So, it's obviously going to be hard and emotional," Diggs said. "I'm not in control of nothing. I get open, I catch the ball. But as far as the internal stuff, obviously I miss those guys over there."
The Patriots and Bills will face off tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET in Highmark Stadium, with Diggs looking to lead his new team to victory against his former squad.
