New England Patriots' star wide receiver Stefon Diggs is embroiled in a serious legal controversy after his former private chef accused him of physical violence, a case that has also unexpectedly involved rapper Cardi B. Diggs has vehemently denied all allegations.
Police Report Details and the "Ghosting" Allegation
According to a police report filed with the Dedham Police Department, the incident allegedly occurred on December 2. The report states that after the complaint was lodged, police authorities attempted to contact Diggs multiple times but their calls went directly to voicemail. An officer reportedly left a message asking Diggs to call back regarding the complaint.
However, it took three days for the police to finally get a hold of the NFL player. This delay led to him making a court appearance on December 30 to address the allegations.
Diggs's Strong Denial and Lawyer's Statement
Stefon Diggs has categorically rejected the accusations, which include claims of strangulation and physical violence. His lawyer, David Meier, issued a firm statement to E! News, calling the allegations "unsubstantiated" and "uncorroborated."
"Stefon Diggs categorically denies these allegations. They are unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, and were never investigated—because they did not occur," Meier stated. He suggested the complaint stemmed from a financial dispute, adding, "The timing and motivation for making the allegations is crystal clear... Stefon looks forward to establishing the truth in a court of law."
When approached publicly about the case, Diggs declined to comment, emphasizing his focus remains on his team, the New England Patriots.
Cardi B Breaks Silence on Being Dragged Into the Mess
The scandal took a pop culture turn when the former chef's police complaint alleged that Diggs's "girlfriend" had asked her to drop the matter. This indirectly pointed fingers at Cardi B, who has been romantically linked to the athlete.
Cardi B has now publicly addressed the situation. She clarified that she never asked the chef to end the investigation or drop the allegations. Her statement seeks to distance herself from the legal battle between Diggs and his former employee.
As the case develops, the sports world watches closely. Stefon Diggs maintains his innocence, preparing to defend himself legally while balancing his professional commitments on the field.
