NFL Clears Free Agent Stefon Diggs After Assault Allegations
The NFL has concluded its independent review and found that Stefon Diggs did not violate the league’s personal conduct policy. This ruling follows a criminal trial in which Diggs was acquitted of strangulation and assault charges. He remained eligible to play through the New England Patriots’ playoff run despite the investigation. After posting over 1,000 receiving yards last season, Diggs became a free agent this spring. Teams were reportedly waiting on the NFL’s verdict before making offers. Diggs has been training intensively in the offseason. His agent insists the veteran wideout deserves a spot on an NFL roster once the new season begins.
