Summary
- Stefon Diggs signed a one-year deal with the Commanders.
- He was acquitted of assault charges in Dedham District Court.
- Diggs brings seven 1,000-yard seasons to Washington.
Washington Commanders are reportedly signing four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs. He joins the team on a one-year contract valued up to $12 million, including incentives. This signing follows Diggs' recent acquittal by a jury in Dedham, Massachusetts District Court on charges of assault. The NFL also determined there was insufficient evidence of personal conduct policy violations, clearing him for the 2026 season.
Last season, Diggs recorded his seventh 1,000-yard campaign, catching 85 passes for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns for the New England Patriots. He previously played for the Buffalo Bills and Minnesota Vikings, amassing 942 career catches for 11,504 yards and 74 touchdowns. Diggs is expected to be a significant addition for third-year quarterback Jayden Daniels.
