New Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs will be a free agent following the 2024 season after having the final three years of his contract "wiped out," according to multiple reports Thursday.
Diggs will make $22.52 million in guaranteed money in 2024 after the Texans moved the $3.5 million he's owed in 2025 to this season, per ESPN.
The Buffalo Bills traded the four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver on Wednesday in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2025 NFL draft. The Texans also get a 2024 sixth-round pick and 2025 fifth-round pick, per reports. The Bills' second-rounder is via the Minnesota Vikings.
Diggs turns 31 in November but produced at a high level since the Bills acquired him from the Vikings in 2020.
He and the Bills were at odds multiple times since he signed a four-year, $96 million contract with $70 million guaranteed in April 2022.

Diggs has 810 career catches for 9,995 yards and 67 touchdowns in 136 games (128 starts) with the Vikings (2015-19) and Bills.
Diggs joins an offense that now includes running back Joe Mixon, whom the Texans also traded for to bolster weapons for second-year quarterback C.J. Stroud. Tank Dell and tight end Dalton Schultz are also in place for 2024.
