Stefon Diggs Clears Air With Bills Following Twitter Outburst

Buffalo Bills WR Stefon Diggs is not ‘okay with losing’, and he let everyone know following their loss to Cincinnati. 

The Bills crashed out of the playoffs 27 – 10 to the Bengals on a day when the team didn’t show up. 

“Want me to be okay with losing? Nah,” Stefon Diggs posted on Twitter. 

“Want me to be okay with our level of play when it’s not up to the standard? Nah.

“It’s easy to criticize my reaction more than the result.”

Stefon Diggs was targeted a game-high ten times against the Bengals but produced only four catches for 35 yards. He just earned his third straight Pro Bowl selection in a season when he amassed 108 receptions for 1,429 yards and 11 touchdowns. His reception total was more than double than anyone else on the team.

His behavior postgame was that of a sore loser, but the Bills organization doesn’t have an issue with that. Both GM Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott spoke to Diggs’ will to win.

“I’d rather have guys I got to cool off and just, you know, he wants to win and I can live with that versus, I’ve been around people that I question, are they just here for the Monday paycheck,” Beane said Tuesday at his season-ending news conference.

“Stefon Diggs has been paid very handsomely, OK? He could say, ‘Man I’m good, I’m set. I can take my private jet, so I can do whatever I want.’ He wants to win and so he wears his emotions on his sleeve, but that’s what makes him really, really good. That’s who Steph was coming out.

“I’m an emotional guy too and if I was losing out there, sometimes I probably think I’d be worse than Steph so does that answer it?”
