WATCH: Stefon Diggs' first career touchdown was a diving doozy
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs is off to an explosive start to his NFL career. Diggs wasn't inserted into Minnesota's lineup until Week 4, but he has become one of the team's most dangerous weapons in only a few games.
Against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, the rookie first-round pick caught his first career touchdown pass. It'll be a tough one for the rookie to top, too, as the 36-yard strike required a full extension to complete.
.@stefon_diggs turns "overthrown pass" into "Catch of the Year Contender". So so so soooooo sick. #MINvsDET https://t.co/7L9TZ9SpHR

With speedy wideout Mike Wallace starting opposite Diggs, the Vikings' offense is more dynamic than it has been in years past, when running back Adrian Peterson was the team's only real weapon. Second-year quarterback Teddy Bridgewater has come along as of late, too, and a lot of that has to do with Diggs' immediate impact.
