It wasn’t the happiest of endings for wide receiver Stefon Diggs in Buffalo, but there aren’t any hard feelings when it comes to his former teammate Josh Allen’s bid for the MVP award.
Diggs was traded to the Texans in the offseason and his season came to an end when he tore his ACL eight games into the year, so he’s had a chance to keep tabs on what Allen has been doing on the field in recent weeks. Allen’s work has made him a heavy betting favorite for MVP and Diggs offered his endorsement of Allen during an appearance on NFL Network.
“Obviously, it’s no secret that Josh Allen is amazing,” Diggs said. “As far as seeing him game in and game out. He’s making those plays. It’s not new to me at all, It’s not new to nobody in the league. I feel like it’s just his respect kind of coming full circle, finally getting that credit that he deserves. He’s playing at a very high level. I feel like he deserves it.”
Diggs’s endorsement might not sway any voters, but Allen’s done a fine job of that on his own.
