Redskins quarterback still dreaming of Stefon Diggs landing in Washington
By Adam Patrick
A graphic of the Minnesota Vikings receiver in a Washington Redskins uniform was recently posted on Dwayne Haskins’ Instagram account.
During this year’s NFL Scouting Combine, Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman and head coach Mike Zimmer did their best to try and quiet down any rumors of the team potentially trading Stefon Diggs this offseason.
Despite their efforts, these rumors about Diggs likely aren’t going to disappear anytime soon. Especially when Dwayne Haskins is posting graphics on his Instagram account of the Vikings receiver in a Washington Redskins uniform.
The young Redskins quarterback, currently preparing for his second season in the NFL, recently posted the graphic of he and Diggs in burgundy and gold uniforms with the words “DMV Connection” also included.
Both Haskins and Diggs played their high school football in the state of Maryland and the Washington quarterback is obviously hoping that the Minnesota receiver finds a way to return home and become his teammate in the near future.
This isn’t the first time Haskins has shared his desire for Diggs to land with the Redskins though. During the offseason last year, the young Washington quarterback made a post on his Instagram account wishing that he and the Vikings pass-catcher were on the same NFL roster.
At this point, it’s nothing more than a silly post on social media to get Redskins fans riled up and full of thoughts about how they might be able to acquire Diggs this offseason.
For now, Diggs is expected to spend 2020 with Minnesota. A lot can change during the next few months, but fans shouldn’t worry about having to get rid of their purple No. 14 jerseys just yet.
