Stefon Diggs started the 2023 season strong but hit a slump midway through, averaging only 41 yards per game and going seven games without a touchdown. Peter King of Pro Football Talk suggested that the Bills may need to restructure Diggs’ contract to alleviate their salary cap issues. Diggs is due to earn $27.9 million next year, which King deemed excessive for a player who struggled in the latter half of the season. The Bills may need to negotiate with Diggs for a salary restructure, which may not sit well with the player. However, the Bills remain committed to Diggs as their top receiver for the 2024 season. In recent years, the Bills have sought salary cap relief from players, such as restructuring the contract of running back Nyheim Hines.
According to Beane, Stef is a top receiver and he firmly believes that. He thinks that the team needs to continue adding weapons to prevent other teams from shutting him down. Stef is still capable of playing and would love to catch a deep ball again. Beane acknowledges that there are concerns about his production, but he still sees him as a No. 1 receiver.
