Last month, the Buffalo Bills decided to part ways with star wide receiver Stefon Diggs, trading him to the Houston Texans. But even as he leaves the team, Bills coach Sean McDermott had some high praise for the star wide receiver.
During his press conference, Sean McDermott opened up about just how hard – or impossible – it will be to replace a player like Stefon Diggs.
“I mean, it’s hard, right? Stef’s a great player,” McDermott said in his Thursday press conference according to Pro Football Talk. “I really enjoyed our time together. Won a lot of games, and he was a huge factor in winning those games.
“We’ll miss him. You never replace a player like Stef Diggs. And we wish him well — Stef and his family. So, hard to move on from a player like that. And now we go back to looking at our roster and [we’re] excited for the opportunity that we have in that room for guys to step up.”
Diggs accounted for over 1,000 receiving yards every single season he was with the Buffalo Bills and was the primary target of Josh Allen. We’ll have to see how the team performs without him.
