I'm pretty sure Diggs would have permission from the team to travel. I know he likes to travel by private jet, so he 's not sitting around an airport packed into a Passenger Mailing Tube with 300 of his closest friends. None of us know, nor should we know, what the guys are doing on their off time. We just have to have confidence that they're fierce competitors who don't want to get sick and miss a playoff game and will take all reasonable precautions. This could either be a worse exposure risk or a lesser exposure risk than some stuff other players are doing, no way to know and I wouldn't want to be "all up in their business" about it if I could. 2 1 1

Does this raise concerns about his availability for Saturday? He has confirmed that he is vaccinated, but I am sure the coaching staff isn't thrilled about this given the timing. Should still be a story about that...but you jist had to slant it. How many Jerry Sullivan posters do you have on your bedroom wall?

Sure we don’t have a right to know their behavior- but when they do things publicly why wouldn’t we chat about the risk or reward? why would we ever have confidence that players are making optimal off field decisions?!? 1 2

Process Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Probably a dumb move. But what do you think, other players are staying locked up at home? I'm sure the vast majority of players are going to similar gatherings. They aren't even testing vaccinated players anymore right? So it would just be an issue if he gets Covid and has symptoms.

benderbender Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Interesting how the Kelce’s mom gets applauded for mingling with over 100,000 fans and journalists in a day, but Diggs gets a scathing from his own fanbase.

You might noticed they’ve been going to Super Bowls lately. I have no say in the matter of whether or not he suits up on Sunday. That means I'll just have to root for the players the are out there. I'm not saying that he doesn't help the Bills win that game. The Bills are the better team by more than Stefon Diggs and that's not a slight on Diggs either, the Bills just are a much better team based on the results of the season until now, and you might have noticed, the Bills WRs outside of Diggs are kinda good. He didn't even lead them in snaps last week Edited January 18, 2022 by Hermes

We had a big enough lead he could spend more time on the sideline waiting for the bigger challenge next weekend. I will have nothing but respect for the Chief’s and what they have accomplished. I’ll take NOTHING for granted, and having Diggs available could be a key factor. 2
