New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs says he wasn’t really side-eyeing Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen in the photo that went viral.
“That’s my dawg. Obviously, things happened, and business happened, but spent a lot of time here. I got a lot of love and respect for that young man. Tremendous player. He’s one of the boys,” Diggs said Sunday night after the Patriots’ Week 5 upset of the Bills. (h/t WROC-TV’s Thad Brown).
Diggs continued, “They had that picture, right, of me side-eying him, but they just kind of caught it at the wrong time. I just wanted to speak on that photo because I was staring at him in the moment because it was like, ‘Damn, that was my brother.'”
The Patriots shared an edited version of the photo, in which Diggs was initially wearing a Houston Texans uniform, after Sunday night’s 23-20 win.
Diggs spent four seasons with Allen and the Bills from 2020 to 2023 before he was traded to the Texans ahead of the 2024 campaign.
