Behind by two scores in the final six-and-a-half minutes, the Patriots turned to a strategy that has worked wonders for offenses over the last near-decade: getting the ball into the hands of Stefon Diggs. Uncovered, and in position to make a play after Las Vegas’ defense overcommitted to his teammate’s flat route, Diggs took full advantage, collecting a 16-yard catch-and-run in the middle of the field. The battle of AFC could-be up-and-comers went in favor of the Raiders, but in his return game, Diggs tallied six receptions (on seven targets) for 57 yards in New England’s 20-13 loss on Sept. 7, 2025.
