Stefon Diggs is heading to the New England Patriots in what has been among the top three biggest betting markets here at Gambling911.com over the past month plus.
BetOnline had been offering Diggs next team odds with the four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver favored to go to the New England Patriots at 3-1 odds for a payout of $300 on every $100 bet.
And guess where he's going.
The Patriots announced an agreement Tuesday on a three-year, $69 million deal that includes $26 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Diggs, 31, suffered a season-ending ACL injury in Week 8 while with the Houston Texans but is on track to return for Week 1 of the upcoming season, a source told ESPN.
Diggs joins a receiving corps with free agent signing Mack Hollins, veteran Kendrick Bourne and third-year players Kayshon Boutte and DeMario Douglas among those near the top of the depth chart.
A fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2015, Diggs has 857 receptions for 10,491 yards and 71 touchdowns (70 receiving) in 10 NFL seasons. He set a number of records while with the Bills, including being one of four players in NFL history to record four consecutive seasons with 100-plus receptions (Antonio Brown, Davante Adams and Marvin Harrison are the others).
The Texans acquired Diggs last season as part of the trade, wiped out the final three years of his contract, allowing him to become a free agent in 2025.
Gambling911.com's own internal data shows that the Diggs betting market was only second over the past 28 days to odds on the next President of the Olympics Committee, which was a massively popular market across the globe. The Stefon Diggs Next Team betting market ranks No. 10 so far this year here at G911.
