Stefon Diggs Breaks Silence on Viral Boat Video at Patriots Minicamp Tuesday
Stefon Diggs Breaks Silence on Viral Boat Video at Patriots Minicamp Tuesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It's been a very busy offseason for star wide receiver Stefon Diggs—for a variety of reasons. He's continuing to ramp up his rehab from the torn ACL he suffered during the 2024 season with the Houston Texans, he signed a deal with the New England Patriots, and he's reportedly begun dating rapper Cardi B. Advertisement However, that attention came with controversy. A video recently surfaced showing Diggs partying on a boat with Cardi B and several others. In the clip, Diggs appears to pull an unknown pink substance from his pocket, prompting speculation and concern online. Diggs arrived at mandatory minicamp this week alongside his Patriots teammates and was asked directly about the video. He gave a firm but guarded response: 'Obviously I want to get as candid as possible with you guys,' Diggs said. 'I kind of have this thing where I don't really talk about my personal life with people I don't know personally. I'm pretty sure everybody here—men or women—are great people, but personal life is personal. 'I had a conversation with [Mike Vrabel], and I'm going to echo everything he said. He told me he's hoping everybody is making good decisions. I also had conversations with people in the building as well. Everything else is everything, and the particulars are all internal.' Diggs has been one of the NFL's top wide receivers throughout a career that has spanned stints with the Minnesota Vikings, Buffalo Bills, a brief stop with the Texans, and now his fourth team—the Patriots. With his return to the AFC East, he'll now face his former team in Buffalo twice a year.
