Bills coach Sean McDermott played down the drama between Stefon Diggs and the team on Wednesday after he said he was “very concerned” that the star wide receiver wasn’t there for practice during Tuesday’s mandatory minicamp.
“There’s a lot things out there that aren’t accurate,” McDermott told reporters Wednesday. “Let me be clear—Stef did everything he was asked to do. He was here Monday and executed his physical on time. Stef reported yesterday, Tuesday, and reported for meetings at which time we had a good conversation, great communication and we got to a point yesterday where we felt like we all needed a break and some space.”
The Buffalo coach was addressing rumors that Diggs was discontent with the team and that he was completely absent from all team activities, when in reality, he says he gave permission for Diggs to miss Tuesday’s practice after an apparent conversation. Diggs was present during Wednesday’s practice.
