Receiver Stefon Diggs emphatically stated in his press conference on Wednesday that everything is all good between him and the Bills (https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/stefon-diggs-all-is-well-in-the-mafia-household).
But there was something Diggs particularly had an issue with when asked about his potential issues with the club that apparently flared up at the start of last month’s minicamp.
A reporter inquired about what Diggs thought about his role in the offense and potentially wanting more targets. Diggs started off his response with, “Yeah, that is insane (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBOy_NwIqBg).”
“For me to just want more say in the offense, it’s crazy because I play receiver. I don’t care what play is called,” Diggs said. “I can’t get up there and say, ‘Call this.’ It’s a lot of outlandish, obvious things where people [are] throwing [things] out there or people were saying [things] as far as my role. I’ve been a captain on this team for three years — there’s no question about my role and who I am as a player, how hard I work. Those things never had question marks. And you can’t say the same thing for a lot of people in the league.
