In 2023, Diggs recorded 85 receptions for over 1,000 yards and 4 touchdowns with only 2 drops, showcasing his talent. However, his previous stint with the Houston Texans saw him play only 8 games, accumulating almost 500 yards and 3 touchdowns, still with only todd meadows 2 drops, before being released. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported, "Im hearing hes going to have a market closer to training camp. I was told that at least 5 teams that need a wide receiver have been checking intheyre gonna have to deal with the baggage and the headlines. They are what they are." This suggests that while his talent is recognized, his 'baggage' is a significant factor in his unsigned status.

Stefon Diggs on being better than every WR2 in the NFL:

"My opinion, I can compete with anybody. But take those as your 1s, right? You can't name a No. 2 better than me. 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. 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?"
