Stefon Diggs may not have an NFL team yet, but that hasn’t rocked his confidence.
NFL training camps will open in the coming weeks and he has not been signed after he was released by the Patriots back in March.
Still, he seemed to have a message for anyone questioning his abilities in a video posted to his YouTube channel last week.
“My opinion, I can compete with anybody,” he said in the video. “But take those [top wide receivers] as your 1s, right? You can’t name a No. 2 better than me.”
The wide receiver continued on by challenging any NFL team to put their No. 2 receiver up against him.
“There’s not a No. 2 on a team — let’s presumably give people the credit and just say, ‘OK, you want to take the No. 1 spot away,’” Diggs said. “Name your No. 2 receiver right now, and tell me how much he makes, and then my last question is: Is he better than me?”
Diggs is coming off a year where he had 85 catches for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns during the regular season and another 14 catches for 110 yards and a touchdown during the Pats’ run to the Super Bowl.
But Diggs has dealt with off-the-field drama, which included his relationship with music artist Cardi B as well as a criminal case involving allegations of assault by a private chef.
Diggs was found not guilty in May of assaulting the private chef over a pay dispute after a two-day trial.
The NFL also closed its probe into whether he violated the league’s personal conduct policy.
There will likely be a team that gives Diggs a chance before training camps open.
The 2026 season will be Diggs’ 12th in the NFL, which has included stops in Minnesota, Buffalo, Houston and New England.
