Buffalo Bills Suffer Another Devastating Injury to Star Player
Buffalo, NY – March 3, 2025
The Buffalo Bills have been dealt another massive setback as one of their top stars has suffered a significant injury, the team announced Monday morning. With the NFL offseason in full swing and preparations underway for the 2025 season, this latest development raises major concerns for Buffalo’s roster depth and playoff aspirations.
According to head coach Sean McDermott, wide receiver Stefon Diggs sustained a lower-body injury during a private team workout over the weekend. While the full extent of the injury has not been disclosed, initial reports suggest that Diggs may miss a significant portion of the offseason training program, if not more.
“We’re evaluating Stefon’s condition closely, and our medical staff is doing everything possible to ensure he gets the best care,” McDermott stated in a press conference. “Right now, our focus is on his recovery and making sure he returns at full strength.”
A Huge Loss for the Bills
Diggs, a four-time Pro Bowler and one of the league’s elite receivers, has been a key figure in Buffalo’s offensive success since joining the team in 2020. Last season, he recorded 1,250 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns, remaining quarterback Josh Allen’s most reliable target. Losing him, even temporarily, would significantly impact the Bills’ offensive strategy.
The Bills have already been dealing with injury concerns, as starting linebacker Matt Milano continues to recover from the leg injury that ended his 2024 season. With key pieces of their roster sidelined, Buffalo faces an uphill battle in maintaining their competitive edge.
Who Will Step Up?
If Diggs misses extended time, the Bills will need other playmakers to fill the void. Second-year wide receiver Khalil Shakir and recently acquired veteran Gabe Davis are expected to take on larger roles. In addition, tight end Dalton Kincaid could see increased targets as Buffalo adjusts its passing attack.
“We’re a team built on depth, and this is where guys have to step up,” Allen said. “We all know what Stefon means to this team, but we have to be ready for anything.”
What’s Next for Buffalo?
The Bills are set to begin organized team activities (OTAs) in the coming months, and Diggs’ availability remains a major question mark. His recovery timeline will likely dictate whether the front office needs to explore additional options in free agency or the upcoming NFL Draft.
Buffalo is already eyeing potential receiver prospects and could look to bolster their depth if Diggs’ absence is prolonged. With the AFC East becoming increasingly competitive, every roster move will be critical in ensuring the Bills remain contenders.
As of now, the team is expected to provide further updates on Diggs’ status later this week. For now, Buffalo fans are left hoping that their star receiver can recover in time to help lead the Bills in another playoff push.
