The New England Patriots should be happy to have a new top receiver and he sure seems excited to join the group at One Patriot Place.
New England reportedly agreed to a three-year deal for $69 million and $26 million guaranteed with Stefon Diggs. The standout receiver joins his fourth NFL franchise and comes to the Patriots in recovery from a torn ACL last season with the Houston Texans.
Diggs quickly took to his Instagram story after the news broke to express his excitement about his new team. He posted the meme after Patrick Star lurking from Nickelodeon’s “SpongeBob SquarePants” cartoon.
Diggs instantly becomes the best receiver on the roster as quarterback Drake Maye’s top target. He looks to elevate a position group with Kendrick Bourne, Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas and Ja’Lynn Polk among others.
New England addressed another need on the roster after the Patriots already brought in several players to start free agency.
