Stefon Diggs loves that his Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen just got paid big time.
Nobody is happier about Josh Allen getting paid the big bucks by the Buffalo Bills than his No. 1 wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
In his first season after being traded over from the Minnesota Vikings, Diggs led the NFL with 127 catches for 1,535 yards. With eight trips to pay dirt, not only did Diggs earn his first Pro Bowl nod, but the former Maryland standout earned First-Team All-Pro recognition. Given that his prime aligns with Allen’s, Diggs is over the moon about seeing his favorite quarterback getting paid.
So you better believe Diggs celebrated on Twitter by quote tweeting with a Terrell Owens GIF.

Together, Allen and Diggs were a big reason why the Bills had their best season in a quarter of a century a year ago. Buffalo won its first division title since the Jim Kelly era, coming up one win short of finally getting back to the Super Bowl. Though Buffalo faces stiff competition in the AFC this season, the Bills are one of a few teams with a great shot at winning the conference title bout.
It may only be year four of Allen under center in Orchard Park, but Buffalo knows he is the guiding light towards any potential Super Bowl aspirations the Bills organization has. While he needs a top-tier wide receiver to rifle the ball to in Diggs, all the pressure is on Allen to carry the Bills to the promised land before this extension runs its course after the 2027 season. The clock is ticking.
While Diggs celebrates the Allen extension, we all know there is plenty of work left to be done.
