TMZ reports that Stefon Diggs won’t be heading into a courtroom until the playoff season is done. Per court documents, Diggs’ attorney argued that the football player was unable to make his initial arraignment on Jan.23, because of a “previously-scheduled professional commitment.”According to the outlet, the New England Patriots star’s court date has been pushed back until Feb.13, nearly a week after the 2026 Super Bowl.
The football player is currently facing “felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges.” The alleged victim, Diggs’ ex-chef, says the violent interaction happened after a heated dispute over pay. However, Diggs has denied all wrongdoing. His girlfriend and child’s mother, Cardi B, has come out in supportof her man, accusing the ex-chef of lying.
