Stefon Diggs is one of the most dynamic wide receivers of his NFL generation. He grew up in Gaithersburg, Maryland, and attended Our Lady of Good Counsel High School in Olney, where he was a 5-star recruit. Diggs played college football at the University of Maryland before being selected in the 5th round (146th overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft by the Minnesota Vikings. He immediately became a key piece of the Vikings offense and delivered one of the most famous plays in NFL history on January 14, 2018 — the "Minneapolis Miracle," a 61-yard walk-off touchdown catch with no time remaining to beat the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Divisional Playoff. Traded to the Buffalo Bills in 2020, Diggs set an NFL single-season record for receptions in 2020 with 127 catches, earning NFL receiving yards title and 5 Pro Bowl selections across his career.
