Buffalo Bills news and notes: Stefon Diggs, Kincaid on fire, Shakir rising, another first from Josh Allen
Stefon Diggs is making history
Stefon Diggs didn't have a ton of yards against Tampa Bay, but he had a team-high nine receptions. The catches gave him a total of 64 receptions this season, with 748 yards and six touchdowns. All three lead the team and he remains one of the unquestioned leaders of this team. But he did something last night that was not mentioned on the telecast and isn't getting enough attention.
For his career, he has 767 receptions, which moved him in front of Larry Fitzgerald for the most receptions by a player before turning 30 years old. Only Deandre Hopkins has the most, with 789 before his 30th birthday. So, let's do some quick math. Diggs turns 30 on November 29th, which means he has four more games to break Hopkins' record and he needs 22 receptions in that span to do it. That's only five to six per game, which should be a piece of cake for Diggs.
