Texans star starts fight, sparks outrage: ‘good riddance’

The Houston Texans may not be the team everyone expected to see this year.

Second-year quarterback CJ Stroud struggled mightily in Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers, going 10-for-21 for a measly 81 yards. Stroud wasn’t the only one to struggle on the day.

Wide receiver Stefon Diggs had a poor outing as well, catching five passes for a total of 23 yards. To make matters worse for Diggs, he was involved in a major pregame spat after getting into it with a group of Packers players.

Shockingly, even in the wake of such a poor performance on the field, Diggs was not apologetic about the incident after the game.

“I don’t give a [expletive] if I’m by myself or with a million. I’m never the bigger person. I ain’t letting [expletive] go,” Diggs said postgame. “They picked it up or whatever. But I ain’t with the football tough guy [expletive].”

Diggs went as far as to say: “I’m never the bigger person.”

Fans online weren’t thrilled with the receiver’s antics.

“Bills fans know- you aren’t the bigger person. Good riddance,” one fan said on Twitter.

“He’s your problem now Texan fans. He said the quiet part out loud thanks for confirming what we all knew,” one fan added.

“There’s a reason not one but two teams have said, nah, we’re good without this guy and moved on,” one fan said.

“That’s why the closest he’ll ever get to the Super Bowl is from his sofa,” one fan added.

“Well, he needs to mature and learn to sometimes be the bigger person. Sometimes it’s best to walk away from people when you don’t like what they’re saying and not give into foolishness,” a fan added.

Diggs is either going to have to put his head down and work or there’s a chance he will bring his career to an end with his antics.
