Patriots Rumor it all makes sense now (Diggs and Cardi B breakup rumors)

yukon cornelius · Feb 9, 2026

cardi b dumped steff digs......this is why they lost!

Diggs was fine as a stop gap for a year but they need to leverage their success this year into a real WR who wants to push their way here.

Diggs is done.

he definitely didn't show up in the Super Bowl

I wouldn't mind keeping Diggs and drafting a WR tbh. Unless there's a legit guy we can splurge on, it's way to early to drop him.

Neither did the 0-line

Diggs is here until they find a better option. No way are we going into 2026 with Boutte and Pop as our top two WRs.

If diggs had the season yall think he did then he's opting out anyway.

I think he was essentially useless in the playoffs.

I'm not saying dump him to dump him but there will be options to find someone better if they're willing to pay the trade price.

Since 2019 we struggled to find a WR. We finally got one that at least mandates extra attention from the defense (even if he isn't breaking out) and we made it back to a Super Bowl.

There isn't a guarantee we just find better out there

Not at that price though maybe Half that based on age.

NFL player contracts don't have MLB-type options. Diggs is under contract for another year and will remain so unless the team terminates him.

I think it's pretty obvious AJ Brown is gonna be a Patriot.

Yeah until people here see how much he's going to cost and go "I want him but not for THAT much". Like every year

For sure but diggs has like 6 years on him. I'll pay the difference.

FWIW, the CBA doesn't prohibit it; it's just that teams are almost never willing to grant them b/c of the CBA ramifications.

You might want to wait until you know what that difference is before you blithely commit to paying it.

Just saying, that’s always a good idea.

Neither did the QB.

It was a true team effort.

And maybe the head coach, who could have told josh to make adjustments to what seattle was doing. Yes it was a team effort

Randy Moss wouldn't have been effective last night. The Seahawks pass rush was like how I'd play in Madden - at least 6+ sacks a game and getting well over 100 sacks on the season playing on All Madden.

With that said, I've seen enough of Diggs throughout the season that shows he's on the decline. I'd take the $23.5M in cash and $28M in cap savings and apply it elsewhere (OL). Majority of his yards came in just a few games against really bad teams and he at his best when nobody is defending him. He's dead to rights like Jacobi Meyers when a man body's up on him.

BB let Welker walk and took heat for it. It was the right move. Diggs isn't going to magically turn back the clock at 32 years old.

We gotta improve the offense. Hopefully no one is still saying it's good enough.

Writing a blank check to a guy who is not worth it will make things worse, not improve anything.

Writing any blank check will have that effect, really.
