Cameras caught an awkward interaction between Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs following the Houston Texans’ thrilling victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
CJ Stroud and the Texans narrowly outlasted Buffalo 23-20, thanks to a last-second game-winning 59-yard field goal by Ka’imi Fairbairn. The win moved Houston to 4-1 on the year, while Josh Allen’s Bills fell to 3-2.
There was a lot of hype around this game because of the Diggs storyline. He played with Allen in Buffalo from 2020 to 2023, helping the Bills to four straight AFC East division crowns.
Diggs was traded to Houston in the offseason following reports that his relationship with Allen and Bills coaches had soured. After the game, Thad Brown of News 8 shared a video of a short (and sweet?) post-game interaction between Allen and Diggs:

Josh Allen Wouldn’t Miss Much Time After Injury
During the next series after his injury, Josh Allen would not come right back in as Mitch Trubisky walked in to play.
Allen was only out for one play.
Through September, Allen has thrown for 814 yards and ran with the football for 106 yards and two scores on the ground.
He would win AFC Offensive Player of the Month for September.
Allen led all AFC quarterbacks in offensive touchdowns (9), passer rating (116.5), passing touchdown-interception ratio (7-0), and total passing touchdowns (7).
Not bad for a guy who lost Stefon Diggs to a trade to Houston this past offseason.
The team is trying to get their record to 4-1 with a possible huge victory over the Houston Texans who also have the same record.
