The more things change, the more they stay the same. The Buffalo Bills have traded wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans in a draft pick swap that sends the Bills the 42nd overall pick. The original owner of the pick? The Minnesota Vikings.
On the first day of the legal tampering period in 2020, the Vikings signed Kirk Cousins to a two-year extension. Shortly after that, Diggs tweeted the legendary tweet that saw him traded mere hours later.
it’s time for a new beginning.

Diggs tweeted something cryptic in responding to a fan a mere hours before the trade questioning the response of a fan saying that Josh Allen didn't need a star receiver like Diggs.
You sure ?

Needless to say, this is a story that Vikings fans have seen before. They had no issues with going to social media and expressing their humor in the trade.
Oh man, this is crazy. The Texans and Vikings continue to be cosmically linked. https://t.co/rXYL4dk3I9

The Texans using the Vikings pick to get Diggs is probably one of the funniest things this off-season. https://t.co/Gp4kv0WKqQ
