NFL Trade Rumor: Kansas City Chiefs linked to former $63M New England Patriots star despite growing interest from Washington Commanders

The Kansas City Chiefs recorded a brutal run on the field in the last season after a Super Bowl LIX lost against the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2024 season.

The major losses have sparked concern among many as all eyes remain on the upcoming season’s roster. Amid all the mess, the Kansas City Chiefs have been linked to a veteran wide receiver.

Kansas City Chiefs urged to make a deal with the former New England Patriots’ star wide receiver Stefon Diggs as Washington Commanders eye him

A few days ago, Mirror US Sports’ Charlie Wilson predicted that there is a chance that the Kansas City Chiefs could bring in Stefon Diggs for the new season.


Mirror US Sports’ Charlie Wilson noted in a recent report, “The Chiefs have not added another wide receiver since losing Marquis Hollywood Brown, with the position looking to be one of their weaker spots heading into the season. They look to be very reliant on Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy and could do with a solid go-to option alongside Travis Kelce.”

Mirror US Sports’ Charlie Wilson added, “Diggs would bring versatility to their WR room, as another slot option alongside Rice - perhaps seeing the Chiefs look to use different formations throughout the 2026 season. They'd have to open up some cap room to make a deal work, though.”

However, the Kansas City Chiefs have not officially commented on potentially signing a deal with the popular wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

Even though the New England Patriots faced a brutal loss against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, Stefon Diggs was a force to be reckoned with on the field.

After an injury plagued season in 2024, Stefon Diggs finished the last season with 85 receptions for 1,013 yards and 4 touchdowns across 17 regular season games.

As multiple teams eye him, Stefon Diggs has expressed more interest in the Washington Commanders.

A few days ago, Stefon Diggs appeared on the 106.7 The Fan where he said, “I’m familiar with the city and I’m familiar with the people. So, we gonna see down the pipe over these next couple of months. What looks good, what makes sense.”

However, nothing has been confirmed yet as Stefon Diggs continues to remain an unrestricted free agent for now.
