FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — In a notable display of dedication, Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs reappeared with his teammates during a voluntary practice session on Monday. His return followed an absence last week that drew media attention after a video emerged showing him on a boat. In connection with the video, head coach Mike Vrabel highlighted the importance of making sound choices off the field and indicated that any further measures would be managed internally.
A league insider mentioned that the governing body would not take further steps, leaving the handling of the matter to Coach Vrabel. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels welcomed Diggs’ presence by noting that attendance at these sessions tends to vary. He emphasized that the shared time on the field is valuable for building team cohesion. Teammates have remarked that since signing a three-year, $69 million contract, Diggs’ availability at these sessions has been somewhat inconsistent.
McDaniels explained that if some players miss parts of the meeting, the coaching crew remains confident that everyone stays updated through the instructional material and practice drills set for the upcoming seasons. With several practices lined up during the spring and summer before games resume in September, the team will use every chance to refine its strategies and overall performance. This session offered a productive environment for reviewing key concepts, planning future tactics, and reinforcing a culture centered on disciplined play. The coaching staff remains committed to promoting unity and accountability as they prepare the squad for future challenges. This renewed engagement underscores the team’s commitment to progress.
