"“Now, I believe the Patriots love Diggs, and Diggs would love to return. But any realistic talk about his return, to me, hinges on whether the Brown trade happens. Assuming Brown does become a Patriot, I think Diggs will probably be somewhere in that one-year, $10 million range. The Chiefs could make sense. The Commanders might, too, since Diggs is from D.C. The Falcons and Rams would also be interesting landing spots.”"
"“And because of that, there is a lot of discussion about what the Patriots' receiving corps could look like in 2026. Adding Brown into the lineup would automatically make him the go-to weapon for Drake Maye, immediately elevating the group to a level we haven't seen since the Tom Brady days.”"
"“However, there is a strong belief that a player like Kayshon Boutte will be included in the Eagles deal so that the group will take a small hit, even with the addition of Romeo Doubs. That has had some fans longing for Stefon Diggs, who the Patriots released ahead of free agency earlier this year, as he remains unsigned.”"
A.J. Brown’s potential trade has driven speculation about the Patriots’ receiving corps for 2026. Adding Brown would make him the primary target for Drake Maye and would elevate the group to a level associated with the Tom Brady era. Expectations exist that Kayshon Boutte could be part of the Eagles deal, offsetting the impact of adding Romeo Doubs. Some fans want Stefon Diggs back after his release, but realistic return scenarios appear limited. Diggs’ return is described as hinging on whether the Brown trade happens, with a likely contract in the one-year, $10 million range and multiple possible destinations.
