Stefon Diggs hauled in a touchdown to remember during Sunday’s game against the New York Jets.
The New England Patriots wide receiver caught a touchdown in the second quarter, which was his fourth reception of the game. That was a notable number because, per Spotrac, he needed just four catches in the contest to secure a $500,000 contract bonus.
Diggs entered the game with 76 catches for 869 yards and three touchdowns.
The 2025 season has been an important bounce-back one for the veteran receiver, who was limited to eight games in 2024 with the Houston Texans because of a torn ACL. While he hasn’t put up some of the same numbers as he did during his peak on the Buffalo Bills, he is the leading receiver for a Patriots team that is on the short list of realistic Super Bowl contenders.
New England entered the contest with the Jets with a 12-3 record and wasted no time setting the tone while jumping out to a quick lead and helping Diggs earn a contract incentive in the process.
