Ex-Patriots WR saw Stefon Diggs at OTAs and forgot about boat incident

Ex-Patriots WR saw Stefon Diggs at OTAs and forgot about boat incident Former New England Patriots two-time Super Bowl champion wide receiver Chris Hogan completely forgot about the boat incident after seeing Stefon Diggs practice for the first time at open OTAs on Monday. Granted, Diggs was a limited participant on the field, but he was seen running routes, cutting and catching passes. It was an impressive showing considering he's less than eight months removed from an ACL injury. Throw in the fact that he's 31 years old, and it's obvious that Diggs is a rare athlete. Some wondered if the Patriots would consider cutting Diggs after a video of him passing out a clear package with an unknown pink substance in it went viral at a boat party over Memorial Day weekend. However, the Patriots are all in on the four-time Pro Bowl receiver. Hogan is, too, after seeing him in action. "I've already forgotten about the boat video after watching that. I thought [Diggs] looked great," Hogan said on The Patriots Report with Price & Hogan. "It's earlier, I think, than most people expected coming back from an ACL injury. I love the way that he's looking running routes and cutting." The Patriots are hopeful that Diggs will be ready by the start of the season, even if he ends up missing time at training camp. He looks to be ahead of schedule just by the eye test. Quarterback Drake Maye might soon be throwing to his new No. 1 target in a competitive setting. Follow Patriots Wire on Twitter and Facebook.

People were reflected in an advertisement on a bus stop in Boston on May 15.

Teachers and administrators scrambled to put together a graduation for Nahomy and her sister, who had chosen with their family to self-deport after the Trump administration sought to terminate the parole program that they had come to the United States under.

(Original Gentlemen), from left, Robert Rose, Albert Brown, and Jabir Pope, performed an a cappella song during a rally for the wrongfully convicted outside the Massachusetts State House in Boston on May 21.

Martha and Howard Kaloogian (center), founders of Grace New England church in Weare, N.H., worshipped with other congregants at a prayer service in the barn on their property on May 3. Erin Clark/Globe Staff Reenactor Doug Ozelius played the part of a fatally shot Royal Navy sailor during a staged skirmish on the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Chelsea Creek celebration in East Boston on May 24.
