Stefon Diggs makes bold runway debut at PDF.Channel's SS26 show in Milan, celebrating Black dandyism with iconic style
Stefon Diggs makes bold runway debut (Image credits: Complex Style/Instagram) NFL star Stefon Diggs lit up the Milan runway at SS26 show, blending bold fashion with Black dandy elegance. But as cameras flashed in Italy, storm clouds swirled back home—thanks to contract drama, injury concerns, and a viral yacht video. His debut arrives at a high-stakes moment, straddling fashion buzz and NFL headlines—commanding attention far beyond the football field. Dandy vibes and designer swagger in Milan At vibrant SS26 showcase, Diggs turned heads with a velvet jacket, crisp tailoring, and sleek accessories. Inspired by late '70s and '80s Black dandyism, his look channeled pride, heritage, and elegance. At the runway's end, Diggs held his pose with calm confidence, exuding part swagger, part statement. The flashbulbs captured more than a walk—it felt like a cultural performance wrapped in style. Fashion bloggers praised the debut: 'Diggs oozed confidence and authenticity. Easily one of the best athlete runway moments in years.' Social feeds called it 'a cultural moment, not just a fashion one,' with fans praising his poise and presence. NFL uncertainty looms behind the glamour Back in the U.S., Diggs faces scrutiny after a now‑viral yacht video surfaced showing him with Cardi B and a suspicious pink substance. While no official violation has been confirmed, the footage has stirred speculation. His current Patriots deal—a $69M contract with roughly $26M guaranteed—could be jeopardized if he fails a full physical or is found in breach. Coach Mike Vrabel urged 'great decisions on and off the field,' when asked about the footage. Fans torn between style and sidelines While fashion insiders applauded Diggs' Milan moment, NFL fans voiced split opinions online. One user on X (Twitter) wrote, 'I love this for Diggs—NFL stars need to embrace style like this more often.' But Reddit threads leaned cautious, 'Stefon Diggs at 31 coming off an ACL injury—really hope this works out.' And regarding the viral yacht clip, 'Unidentified pink substance? Not a good look this close to training camp. ' Also read: 'C***ne is a hell of a drug': Stefon Diggs slammed for wild wedding dance amid ACL recovery and Cardi B drama Though Diggs has resumed participation at OTAs, full clearance is still pending post-ACL surgery.

Meanwhile, Diggs' Milan success may widen his brand reach—but his NFL future remains in delicate balance. Game On Season 1 kicks off with Sakshi Malik's inspiring story. Watch Episode 1 here

Indiana Pacers derail Drake's massive $800K bet as Oklahoma City Thunder collapse in NBA Finals Game 6
Drake. Image via: Ian West/ Getty Images The Indiana Pacers flipped the script on Thursday night, crushing the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6 of the 2025 NBA Finals, and with that, the Pacers also took rapper Drake 's $800,000 bet down with them. The Thunder, poised to clinch their first title since 1979, instead delivered a lackluster performance, falling 108-91 in Indianapolis. The loss forced a decisive Game 7 back in Oklahoma. The game also became the latest example of the infamous 'Drake Curse' playing out in real time. Drake has lost a whopping $800k after the Oklahoma City Thunder crumbled in Game 6 Drake, a longtime sports bettor and global music icon, revealed via Instagram before tip-off that he had placed two massive bets totaling $800,000 through Stake, the crypto-betting platform he endorses. He wagered $600,000 on the Thunder to win outright and another $200,000 on them to win by a margin of 6–10 points. Drake would have walked away with $1.734 million if both bets landed on his favor. He even tagged Canadian-born Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in his post, writing, 'Check that box @shai.' But instead of a celebratory night, it was another episode of his public gambling failure. Despite questions about Tyrese Haliburton's health before the game, the Pacers came out stronger in the most crucial matchup. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo They led by 22 at halftime and pushed the lead to as much as 31 points, leaving OKC scrambling. The Thunder eventually pulled their starters in the fourth quarter. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the reigning MVP, struggled mightily. He committed a career-worst eight turnovers and scored only 21 points on 15 attempts—well below his playoff average. Meanwhile, Indiana got major contributions across the board. Obi Toppin led with 20 points, and Pascal Siakam maintained the hype in the crowd with a thunderous poster dunk on Jalen Williams, initiated by a Tyrese Haliburton steal and assist. The team's depth and defense neutralized OKC's star power, including Drake's hopes. Just hours before Game 6, Drake shared screenshots showing his recent gambling record, an astonishing $124.5 million in bets placed over the last month, with $8.2 million in losses. 'Gotta share the other side of gambling ... Losses are so fried right now,' he posted on Instagram. In a more controversial follow-up, Drake called gambling addiction 'a lie made up by platforms like Stake to prevent you from winning their money.
