The Houston Texans must think long about letting Pro Football Focus’ top free agent leave NRG Stadium this offseason.

The Houston Texans will take on the Los Angeles Chargers in the AFC wild-card round while missing two top receivers. What happened to Stefon Diggs?

#Texans Pro Bowl runner Joe Mixon on wanting Stefon Diggs to re-sign with team 'We would welcome him back with open arms. I'm sure he's probably going to want to come back here. He's got unfinished business and would take that into consideration' @KPRC2 pic.twitter.com/BsGyqq4510

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud lobbied for the team to retain wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who is heading to free agency this offseason. Stroud

They lost Tank Dell to a devastating knee injury a few weeks ago, and of course they also lost their major offseason acquisition, Stefon Diggs, earlier in the year. And if C.J. Stroud has his way, Diggs will be back next season.

Stefon Diggs' debut season with the Houston Texans was cut short due to an ACL injury after eight games, and quarterback C.J. Stroud hopes the star wideout returns in 2025.

However, general manager Nick Caserio must address critical roster decisions to keep the Texans on their upward trajectory. Injuries can only serve as an excuse for so long. The element of surprise that defined Houston’s 2023 campaign is no longer a factor.

Diggs has been out of action since October. We look at how Houston will line up with two wide receivers on injured reserve.

The Texans' season came to an end on Saturday afternoon in Kansas City, but C.J. Stroud hopes that doesn't end his time as Stefon Diggs' teammate.

The Texans picked up wide receiver Stefon Diggs last offseason, but his year was cut short by a torn ACL in Week Eight.

Stefon Diggs might have options on the open market, but one NFL insider views Houston as his best location for the 2025 season.
