Diggs gives Stroud, Texans another playmaker and vaults them into Super Bowl conversation
Associated PressStroud was still asleep in Los Angeles when the news broke that the Houston Texans were trading for star receiver Stefon Diggs. Diggs was traded from Buffalo to Houston April 3, giving last year’s AP Offensive Rookie of the Year another playmaker to throw to and vaulting the Texans into the Super Bowl conversation. “He’s been a great player in this league for a long time, well respected,” coach DeMeco Ryans said. He’s been productive.” The Texans made a complete turnaround last season thanks in large part to the additions of Stroud and Ryans as well as AP Defensive Rookie of the Year Will Anderson. So, I’m excited to just to see Tank back working with our guys and excited to see him make that same jump that I talked about in Year 1 to Year 2.” Stroud, the second overall pick in last year’s draft, first met Diggs at the Pro Bowl and has already got to work at building a relationship with his new receiver.
