Stefon Diggs is set to part ways with the New England Patriots after just one season. The 32-year-old seemingly confirmed the reports with a social media post. His exit has sparked several rumors, with some social media users speculating that Cardi B was behind the release.
However, NFL insider Tom Pelissero explained the timing behind the decision, stating that the Patriots didn't want to drag Diggs along and informed him ahead of time that they planned to release him before a major salary guarantee took effect.
The Patriots' decision was based on contract structure and salary cap planning rather than any off-field issues. Despite the timing of the breakup and the roster move, there is no evidence supporting the claims that Cardi B influenced the team's decision.
Diggs remained highly productive during his lone season in Foxborough, finishing the year with 85 receptions, 1,013 receiving yards, and four touchdowns.
