Stefon Diggs is having quite the afternoon in the Twin Cities.
On Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings hosted the Philadelphia Eagles in an NFC clash. Diggs has had no trouble blowing up the Eagles’ secondary, accounting for three touchdowns and 167 yards and seven catches. That includes a 62-yard touchdown reception from Kirk Cousins.
Not a bad way to spend a Sunday. Below are clips from Diggs’ three touchdown catches against the Eagles.

Diggs also had two carries for 18 yards in the Vikings offense.
Coming into the game, the former Maryland receiver had 16 catches for 253 yards ad a touchdown through the first five games of the season. This has easily been the best performance of the year for the ex-Terp.
Thanks to Diggs’ big day, Minnesota went on to post a 38-20 win over the Eagles to improve to 4-2 on the season.
