– Packers release: Claimed off waivers on Dec 31, Diggs played just one snap in the Wild Card loss to the Bears before being cut. 🗑️
– Big contract, limited action: Signed a 5-year, $97 million extension in July 2023, but only appeared in 19 regular-season games for Dallas before the 2025 was marred by an at-home accident. 💸
– 2025 setback: Missed eight games after an incident described as a television falling on his head while he was mounting it on an outdoor patio. 📺
– Christmas controversy: Diggs asked to stay in the Washington, D.C. area after a game and not fly back with the team; Dallas refused, he stayed anyway, fueling a tense split with the Cowboys. 🏙️
– Big trade context: The Packers also landed another Cowboys All-Pro this season in a blockbuster deal that sent Micah Parsons to Green Bay for two first-round picks and Kenny Clark, helping fuel this dramatic stretch for Diggs. 🏟️
– Current deal reality: If claimed, he’d carry a $472k base for Week 18 plus $58,823 if active, with no guaranteed money beyond this season; rehab choices were made outside the team’s program. ⚖️
– Family tie: Diggs is the younger brother of star WR Stefon Diggs. 🧬
Bottom line: Diggs is again on the move, and his future with Green Bay (or another team) remains up in the air as he tries to bounce back. ⚡📊
