Stefon Diggs out for the season with a torn ACL

Wide receiver Stefon Diggs’ first season with the Texans is reportedly over.

Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans announced Tuesday that Diggs has been diagnosed with a torn ACL. Diggs left Sunday’s win over the Colts with a knee injury and underwent further testing in recent days.

Diggs arrived in Houston this offseason via a trade with the Bills and reworked his contract to make him a free agent this season. He now heads towards his next contract while dealing with a serious injury.

Diggs had 47 catches for 496 yards and three touchdowns in his eight appearances this season.

The injury comes at a time when Nico Collins is on reserve with a hamstring injury, so the once-deep Texans receiving corps has been significantly thinned. Tank Dell, John Metchie, Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods and Steven Sims are the remaining receivers on the 53-man roster.
