Buffalo-based artists have replaced the mural of Stefon Diggs with an iconic Buffalo Bills winter jacket.
The Buffalo Bills have made a significant change at wide receiver, swapping out Stefon Diggs for Keon Coleman. Similarly, local artists have adapted by updating their outdated mural, showcasing the team’s transition in a brilliant way.
Previously, the mural on the corner of Hertel and Wellington depicted Josh Allen and Diggs, but with Diggs now gone, ZoomBuffalo chose to refresh the artwork rather than remove it. They cleverly incorporated a reference to Coleman’s introduction to Buffalo during his press conference.
Instead of replacing Diggs entirely with Coleman, the artists opted to cover Diggs’ jersey with a depiction of Coleman’s now-famous yellow coat. The transformation is seamless, with the final result looking fantastic.

This creative approach not only welcomes the new addition to the team but also acknowledges Diggs’ departure in a respectful manner. The use of the Macy’s jacket adds a unique touch to the mural, sparking excitement among fans.
Coleman’s charisma has quickly endeared him to the city, and his distinctive shopping skills have become a part of his charm. The community is embracing him wholeheartedly, setting the stage for an exciting new chapter in Bills history.
