Chicago Bears could see Stefon Diggs traded from NFC North

The Chicago Bears may not have to deal with Stefon Diggs in the NFC North for much longer.

This past Sunday afternoon, the Chicago Bears won their third straight on the season with a dominating victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Now at 3-1, they have jumped ahead of Minnesota and are now tied with the Green Bay Packers for the division lead.

One of the only bright spots for the Vikings on Sunday was fifth year pro Stefon Diggs. The former Maryland product has become a big play threat at wideout for the Vikings, who have struggled to get their passing game going.

Fortunately for the Bears, Diggs’ time within the NFC North may be coming to an end shortly. There are rumors swirling that Diggs could be traded.

If the rumors aren’t enough to make Vikings fans nervous, check out what Diggs posted on his instagram story on Tuesday.

Yes, you read that correctly. Diggs posted a photo of he and fellow wide receiver Adam Thielen with a caption, “My brother no matter what…”

Not only did he post that photo, but Diggs has also been following New England Patriots players on instagram as well.

If Diggs is indeed headed to the Patriots, you may as well send New England straight to the Super Bowl once more. They attempted to work things out with disgruntled wide receiver Antonio Brown, but we all know how things have ended up with his situation. Now, they could be getting yet another stud in Diggs to pair with Josh Gordon and Julian Edelman.

For the Bears, this would be great news. The Vikings are already a one-dimensional offense as they have tried to ride the likes of Dalvin Cook with a bit of Alexander Mattison sprinkled in. The run game is definitely their bread and butter — unless they’re playing the Bears, who held them to 40 yards rushing on Sunday.

Without Diggs, the Vikings have Thielen along with a bunch of no-name guys including the recently re-signed Laquon Treadwell. Their air attack would likely continue to struggle and defenses would be served well continuing to focus on stopping the run.
