Stefon Diggs has operated as the New England Patriots' No. 1 wide receiver for the entire season.

Entering Week 13, Diggs has 679 receiving yards and three touchdowns. His yardage is first among Patriots pass-catchers and he's tied for third in receiving touchdowns.

Diggs had a catch early on in the Week 13 game against the New York Giants but has been quiet ever since. Here's a closer look at what's going on.

What happened to Stefon Diggs?

No, Diggs is not hurt, he just hasn't gotten any receptions since his 13-yard catch in the first quarter. He is up to two targets in total.

It's hard to say what's going on with Diggs at the moment. It might just be one of those games where he doesn't connect with quarterback Drake Maye much.

Diggs has had some lackluster performances throughout the campaign, so this isn't exactly an outlier performance for him.

Hopefully the second half yields better results, but with the Patriots up big on the Giants, New England might not throw the football much the rest of the way.
