Vikings' Stefon Diggs eager to show 'Superwoman' a highlight

Vikings rookie Stefon Diggs is plenty excited for his mom, whom he calls Superwoman, to see him play Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. It will be the first time she sees him play in the NFL.

Stephanie Diggs raised Stefon and his four siblings by herself in Maryland after her husband, Aron, died of congestive heart failure in January 2008. Diggs' first name comes from combining his parents' names.

His mother, an Amtrak train attendant, has been able to attend only one Minnesota game this season. That was the Sept. 27 home game vs. San Diego, a week before her son was activated.
