Stefon Diggs Eyes Homecoming with Commanders
Star wide receiver Stefon Diggs, currently one of the top free agents available, has added major fuel to the speculative fire regarding his next destination. In a recent interview, he dropped a massive hint that a homecoming to the Washington Commanders is a very real possibility.
Speaking to FOX 5 in his hometown of Washington, D.C., Diggs confirmed that he has "100 percent" considered playing for the Commanders. The veteran wideout expressed that returning to play for his hometown franchise would be a significant and meaningful moment in his career.
Buffalo Bills Reunion Looking Unlikely
Earlier this offseason, rumors swirled about a potential reunion between Diggs and the Buffalo Bills—fueled largely by social media interactions with his former teammates. However, those rumors have quickly faded away.
Bills head coach Joe Brady recently cooled the talk of Diggs returning, stating his confidence in the team's current wide receiver room. Reports have echoed this sentiment, suggesting that Buffalo's roster direction makes a reunion highly unlikely.
What's Next for Diggs?
Diggs became a free agent after being released by the New England Patriots in early March 2026. Now cleared of recent legal issues, he is free to sign with a new team ahead of training camp.
While the Commanders seem to hold a sentimental edge, analysts continue to link Diggs to other contenders, notably the Kansas City Chiefs, as teams look to bolster their passing attacks before the 2026 NFL season kicks off.
