The NFC North already saw one superstar caliber player change teams while staying inside the division on Monday. After veteran tight end Jimmy Graham signed with the arch rival Chicago Bears following a two-year stint as a member of the Green Bay Packers, it was then Bears special teamer Cordarrelle Patterson who attempted to turn the tables in Chicago's favor — this time with current Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
Diggs, who previously made it pretty clear that he wanted out of Minnesota before ultimately making nice with the Vikings midway through last season, could be looking to find his next NFL team after all. Leading to Patteron's tweet, Diggs initially took to social media with a cryptic message of his own, which may just be his latest attempt to leave the Vikings.
Of course, the Vikings just can't seem to get over the hump no matter who the team's quarterback is. While Kirk Cousins will remain under center for the foreseeable future after signing yet another contract extension with the Vikings on Monday, perhaps Diggs' relationship with the former Washington Redskins signal caller is damaged. Cousins and Diggs certainly have plenty of help in running back Dalvin Cook and fellow wide out Adam Thielen — not to mention the team's pretty strong defense.
Diggs did have a stellar season in 2019-20, a campaign that the aforementioned Thielen missed the majority of due to injury. This is definitely a headline to keep an eye on with the Bears; Diggs has been known to repeatedly change his mind.
