The Kansas City Chiefs largely ignored the wide receiver position through the start of free agency and the NFL draft, but could have one more big addition on the way.
The team’s wide receiving corps struggled at times during the 2025 season, one of the biggest factors in a late-season slump that led to their first season falling short of the playoffs in more than a decade. SI.com insider Albert Breer believes the Chiefs still have a chance to boost the group, naming them as a top potential landing spot for All-Pro Stefon Diggs.
Chiefs Have Chance to Take Big Swing With Stefon Diggs
In a mailbag published this week, Breer addressed speculation that Diggs could return to the Patriots, who cut him loose in the weeks after their Super Bowl loss. His release was seen as a cost-cutting move at the time, with Diggs potentially returning on a new contract.
Breer threw cold water on the idea, saying the Patriots appear focused on completing a trade for A.J. Brown. He instead suggested a trio of other teams, starting with the Chiefs.
“Now, I believe the Patriots love Diggs, and Diggs would love to return,” Breer wrote. “But any realistic talk about his return, to me, hinges on whether the Brown trade happens. Assuming Brown does become a Patriot, I think Diggs will probably be somewhere in that one-year, $10 million range. The Chiefs could make sense. The Commanders might, too, since Diggs is from D.C. The Falcons and Rams would also be interesting landing spots.”
Diggs could quickly become a No. 1 target for Patrick Mahomes, giving the Chiefs a trusted wide receiver and complement to Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy.
