A Deeper Look into Stefon Diggs' Injury in Houston Texans' Game
Stefon Diggs Suffers Injury in Loss to Houston Texans
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs suffered an injury during the team's Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans. Diggs left the game in the second quarter after suffering an apparent knee injury. The severity of the injury is currently unknown, but Diggs is expected to undergo further evaluation on Monday.
Diggs Has Been a Key Player for the Bills This Season
Diggs has been a key player for the Bills this season, leading the team in receiving yards and touchdowns. In 12 games, Diggs has caught 85 passes for 1,164 yards and 11 touchdowns. He has also rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown.
Bills Will Need to Step Up Without Diggs
The Bills will need to step up without Diggs in the coming weeks. The team is currently 9-3 and in first place in the AFC East. The Bills have a tough schedule remaining, with games against the Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots, and Cincinnati Bengals still to come.
If Diggs is unable to play, the Bills will likely turn to Isaiah McKenzie and Khalil Shakir to fill his role. McKenzie has 34 catches for 457 yards and three touchdowns this season, while Shakir has 22 catches for 254 yards and a touchdown.
Diggs' Injury is a Blow to the Bills' Playoff Hopes

The Bills will need to hope that Diggs' injury is not serious and that he can return to the field soon. If Diggs is unable to play, the Bills will need to find a way to replace his production.
