The Las Vegas Raiders desperately need to add more help at wide receiver and a former teammate of quarterback Kirk Cousins has been suggested as a potential option.
CBS Sports' Zachary Pereles suggested one free-agent signing for every team and for the Raiders, it was former New England Patriots and Minnesota Vikings wide receiver, Stefon Diggs.
"Diggs showed last year he can still really play, even if his snap share was way down. A talented separator who snatches the ball with hands like glue, Diggs would really help a Raiders wide receiver group bereft of his skill set and bereft of experience," Pereles said.
Former Vikings teammates
Of course, Cousins and Diggs were teammates for two seasons from 2018-19 before Diggs moved on to play for the Buffalo Bills.
