Stefon Diggs might’ve had himself a frustrating afternoon on the field, but no player was more thrilled about the Vikings’ 26-20 overtime win over the Saints in Sunday’s NFC Wild Card.
Diggs also played a part in one of the most disrespectfully iconic photos we’ll see this postseason.
As the Vikings and Saints players converged around midfield for the postgame handshakes, Diggs broke out into a mock “Choppa Style” dance — a celebration the Saints have used the past couple seasons.
But as that was going on, Saints head coach Sean Payton extended his hand to greet Diggs. That snapshot appeared to show Diggs celebrating in Payton’s face — though we don’t know what unfolded after the photo.

The photo, which was taken by the Minnesota Vikings’ club photographer, is real and probably should be framed in the home of every Vikings fan. It’s so good.
And again, the photo was just an out-of-context shot of the postgame scene, so we don’t know if Diggs actually snubbed Payton (but could you imagine?!). He did, after all, share a hug with Drew Brees after the game.
What a great photo, though.
