Who is Stefon Diggs, the NFL star that is romantically linked to Cardi B?

For several months rumors of romance persecute the artist of Dominican origin Cardi B and the American football player, Stefon Diggs.

These rumors were revived after both were seen together during game 4 of the playoff series between the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics, where they were photographed during the game.

Diggs, 31, is a veteran receiver who has played nine seasons at the NFL (National Soccer League) with three different teams.

This season, after recovering from a breakage of the anterior cross ligament (ACL) in one of its knees, it will seek to restore again as one of the best receptors in the league, now defending the colors of the New England Patriots, a franchise with which it signed a three -year contract valued at US $ 63.5 million.

Prior to his injury, Diggs was at the best moment of his career, being selected to the Pro-Bowl (the NFL version of the star game) every year between 2020 and 2024, with an All-Pro selection (best equipment) during that period.

It also carried a streak of six consecutive seasons with more than 1,000 reception yards, leading the NFL at receptions (127) and reception yards (1,535) during the 2020 season.

EARNINGS

During his career, Diggs has won more than 137 million dollars during his stay with the Minnesota Vikings, Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans.

He played at the collegiate level with University of Maryland for three years, being selected in 2015 by the Vikings in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

For the place where he was selected, he signed a four -year contract and 2.5 million dollars, with only US $ 237 thousand guaranteed.

After good seasons signed in 2018 an extension of five years with Minnesota valued at US $ 72 million.

However, after a defeat in the playoffs in 2019, Diggs was changed to the Bills, a team with which he signed another extension, this time for four years and 96 million dollars.

However, painful defeats in postseason persecuted Diggs, who expressed his discomfort with the team, so he was again changed, on this occasion to Houston, where he renegotiated his contract, agreeing to one year for US $ 22.5 million.
