If this is a message to the offensive coaching staff to stop being stupid, then I’m all for it! 

Second best offense in the league and he got a shitload of targets in it

I assumed that when the team restructured Diggs they had spoken to him and had a reasonably accurate temperature on the situation. It feels like checking in after the way we ended the CIN game would have been a slam dunk...apparently not? 

In a worst case, doomsday scenario, Diggs could tank this roster by forcing his way out. 

(Most NFL contracts are written with permission for restructures up front. Teams do not need to get approval before restructuring)

I cant possibly understand what in the world Diggs could be protesting. He signed a new deal last year, hes on a top 3 offense with a top 3 QB.

 

Whats the angle here? He wants to be traded...to where? He wants more money...based on what?

 

Cut bait and sign Hopkins if this gets any uglier.

Can't cut him because it would cripple the cap and they likely wouldn't be ABLE to sign Hopkins . If Diggs wants to be an ass, see what they can do with the contract.

The just restructured him with signing bonus, can't be about money. 

 

 

Does this mean they just cut him a check for $23M in March ?

$96 million contract on one of the best teams in the NFL, one of the best QBs in the league, diehard, loyal to the bone fans and this guy has to be a total asshat?

 

Super disappointed in this dude.

I understood Diggs being upset in Minnesota, because they were a run-first offense and showed no signs of changing, and he felt he was being underused and wasn't being allowed to reach his vast potential.

I'm a lot less understanding of his being upset now. As others have pointed out, he's paid very well, he's on a very pass-first offense with a top five quarterback, and he's the focal point of the passing game.

Besides, what does he really think he could get on another team that he doesn't have here? Short of joining the Chiefs, who does he honestly feel like would give him a better chance to win a ring at this point?

Yes, I understand why he'd be aggravated with the coaches and potentially even Josh Allen, but I don't think that he's going about it the right way.
 

 

But when the going got tough and we needed him the most, the coaches and Josh flat out ignored him. In more than one game. And instead to take low percentage deep shots to a struggling and unreliable Davis.

 

Just sayin.

Perhaps he's upset that Allen *appears* to have let his personal life interfere with the Bengals game / rest of team was flat / Diggs didn't get ball

Whole lotta nothing. He’ll be ready to go.

 

Much like Bruce, I'd argue Diggs could show up on Sept 11 for the opener and be ready to go and not miss a beat.
