Last week, the Buffalo Bills traded star wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans. Shortly before the trade went through, Diggs posted a comment on social media in which he appeared to question whether or not Allen would have success without him. And it seems like the two might have had some disagreements long before that point.
In the latest episode of his “Tim Graham and Friends” podcast, Tim Graham of The Athletic recalled an interaction between Stefon Diggs and Josh Allen following the team’s Week One loss to the New York Jets in which Allen “snapped” at Diggs after the Bills receiver said something to him.
“As I recall, I didn’t include it because I didn’t know what Stefon Diggs said to him, but Josh Allen snapped at him. He said, ‘It’s one [freaking] game!’ and kind of motioned like I’m not talking to you here,” Graham recalled. “And Diggs walked away and Josh sat there,” Graham said in the podcast. “In retrospect, keeping in mind this was Week 1 when for all we know everyone is hunky dory, but looking back on it I wish I would have included that in my story or made some sort of reference to it. Maybe Stefon Diggs was saying something nice to him, but (Allen) didn’t snap at anybody else.”
It’s obviously not clear what Diggs said to Allen to elicit such a reaction, but it’s at least a slight indication that their relationship might not have been the best even at the beginning of last season.
