Stefon Diggs signs with Washington Commanders after Giants discussions

Stefon Diggs signed with the Washington Commanders on August 5, after preliminary discussions with the New York Giants did not progress to contract talks. Giants general manager Joe Schoen, who previously worked with Diggs in Buffalo, indicated that financial fit was a major hurdle. The Giants continue to seek a reliable No. 2 receiver as second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart lacks sufficient targets, particularly with Malik Nabers recovering from surgery. New Giants head coach John Harbaugh may reconsider their financial decisions, having recently invested in tight end Isaiah Likely instead of pursuing Diggs.
