Diggs took off down the sideline with Lassiter staying step for step. As C.J. Stroud released the deep pass, they were battling it out.

It is this competitive spirit from Diggs that Texans second-year coach DeMeco Ryans has seen trickle down to all of the other wideouts early in camp. Diggs is going for his seventh consecutive 1,000-yard season and is just 5 yards shy of 10,000 career yards as he arrives in Houston. Last season, he had 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns for the Bills.
The third-year receiver has had to overcome an ACL injury in college and a leukemia diagnosis in his first two years in the NFL and is off to a strong start as he tries for one of the receiver spots.
