VIDEO: Stefon Diggs Fuels Trade Rumors With Wink During Postgame Interview

After another day with some so-so production, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs appears to be holding firm on his trade request. When asked if his trade request still stands, Diggs said that he wanted to stay in Minnesota, but gave reporters a noticeable wink, implying that he could still be looking elsewhere.

While Kirk Cousins and Adam Thielen woke up during a dominant win over Daniel Jones and the New York Giants, Diggs was again below average, catching just three passes for 44 yards despite going against a rookie in DeAndre Baker and a generally awful Giants secondary.

Be it through poor performance or simply a reduced role in New OC Kevin Stefanski's offense, this is not what the Vikings want to see out of a receiver on an $81 million contract.

Kirk Cousins: 3 years, $84M

Stefon Diggs: 5 years, $81M

Adam Thielen: 4 years, $64M

Vikings: 31st in passing yards per game, 32nd in passing first downs per game

Even a dominant win over Danny Dimes and the Giants is not enough for Diggs to want to stay up north. While his mouth said he wants to be in Minnesota, his eyes told a different story.
