Texans’ Stefon Diggs pushes back against Super Bowl talk in first comments since trade from Buffalo

Associated Press  

HOUSTON — When Stefon Diggs was dealt to Houston from Buffalo in April, many believed the addition of the superstar receiver vaulted the Texans into Super Bowl contention. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday for the first time since the trade, Diggs said it’s far too early to be talking about winning a ring. I don’t put the carriage before the horse.” The Texans made a remarkable turnaround last season thanks in large part to the additions of quarterback C.J. “I’ve been in the league for a little while now so being around a good group of guys is always a breath of fresh air.” Stroud and Diggs bonded at the Pro Bowl in February and have only gotten closer since becoming teammates. He’s a surehanded guy, a really good teammate, great energy around the building and the locker room with the guys.” “So, I’m excited to continue to see his growth in learning our offense and how we do things, but couldn’t be more pleased with where he is right now,” he continued.
