The fact that Josh Allen brought up his relationship with former teammate Stefon Diggs unprompted during his weekly Wednesday media availability was proof that the Buffalo Bills star quarterback had something he wanted to get of his chest. Dave Naylor has more.
It had to do with the interpretation of his comments following Monday night’s 47-10 win over Jacksonville when Allen was asked a question about having six different players catch touchdown passes. Allen said it was a “fun and wonderful thing when you got a bunch of guys that don’t care about the stats.”
"I know there's a lot of people talking out there, again, I'm not trying to tear down anybody," Allen said."I've loved everybody that I've played with, and you don't have to tear other people down to build each other up. And we're building each other up right now and that's all we're trying to do and trying to stay together as a team. We're really caring about each other, and everybody in this building has got that feeling.
Allen is a player who respects the game and everyone in it, so it makes sense that he’d be upset at seeing Monday’s comments come to life with unintended meaning.In Diggs’ absence in Buffalo are the simmering coals of speculation about his relationship Allen, which were fanned by the quarterback’s comments Monday night – intended or not.
The truth of the beef between Diggs and McDermott has never been revealed, although the star receiver denied it had anything to do with him demanding input into the offensive gameplan. It was the last time Bills Mafia would ever see Diggs playing for the home team, his exit coming via a trade to Houston in exchange for a second-round pick in April.
