Stefon Diggs gives a little Bills fan something extra to be thankful for before Lions game (Video)

DETROIT — Stefon Diggs always finds a way to put smiles on Buffalo Bills fans’ faces in pre-game warm-ups before every game.

The All-Pro wide receiver usually makes a circle around the perimeter of the field to play catch with fans in the stands. On Thursday, Diggs gave a young Bills fan a Thanksgiving memory of a lifetime by bringing him onto the field to have a quick catch.

Diggs walked over to the front row of the stands, found a young Bills fan, lifted him over the barricade, and sent him on a pass pattern on the actual field. The little boy caught the pass about 15 yards down the field and then threw it back to Diggs, who made the catch and got both feet down on the sideline.

Diggs and the Bills play on Thanksgiving for the second straight season. Under Sean McDermott, Buffalo is undefeated on Thanksgiving with wins over the Dallas Cowboys (2019) and the New Orleans Saints (2021).

All Pro cornerback Tre’Davious White suffered a season-ending torn ACL last year against the Saints on Thanksgiving. He’s active today against the Detroit Lions for the first time since that game almost one year to the day.

Diggs said this week that he’s noticed White beginning to get his swagger back on the practice field.

“He’s, as we know, one of the hardest working people I’ve ever played with, if not the hardest working person,” Diggs said. “He’s a hell of a player, man. I just can’t wait to see him back out there. He definitely brings another, I guess, layer or another oomph to our defense that we get our number one cornerback. So I look forward to that.”
