In September, the Bears stymied the Vikings offense in a 16-6 victory and Stefon Diggs seemed like he had enough.
After the game, the Vikings wideout left before talking to media. On top of that, he missed a practice shortly after. Asked about his frustrations with Minnesota’s offense and whether he wanted to be traded, Diggs said “there’s truth to all rumors,” per NFL.com.
Though the team’s performance didn’t always lead to Diggs’ happiness, Minnesota clearly turned a corner after that game, finishing 10-6 in the regular season after a 2-2 start.
But now that the season is over, are we to believe that the wide receiver is content on staying or is he on the move? In addition to taking down Instagram pictures of him in a Vikings uniform, Diggs posted a series of tweets recently that have led some Vikings fans to believe that he might want out.

It’s hard to glean anything from these tweets in my opinion. Some of the more cryptic ones could be about aspects of his personal life.
The Kawhi Leonard GIF he posted might be about the D’Angelo Russell trade. Leonard is a player famous for moving to another team and finding success, so maybe that’s what the GIF is about, if I’m being overly optimistic.
One thing is for certain, though: the tweets gave Vikings fans pause, and it gave fans around the league hope that a star wide receiver might be on the way.
