Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs wants everybody to know that his brother does not speak for him or his intentions with his current team.
Diggs clarified that fact on Thursday after he was asked about comments his brother, injured Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs, made following the Bills’ Monday night loss to the Denver Broncos.
Stefon’s future with the Bills has been in question at times over the past year, but he made it very clear on Thursday that unless you hear it from him, it probably isn’t something you should put much stock in.

Diggs is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL and already has a league-leading 73 catches for 868 yards and seven touchdowns in the Bills’ first 10 games of the season.
But with the team sitting at 5-5 and outside of the AFC playoff picture, and with starting quarterback Josh Allen mired in a turnover-filled slump, there is going to be some adversity for the Bills to deal with. They probably just were not expecting it to be because of their top wide receiver’s brother suggesting that he needs to get out of Buffalo.
There were rumors in the preseason that Diggs had requested a trade out of Buffalo, but the Bills and Diggs denied that.
The best way for these distractions to go away is for the Bills to simply start winning more games. That is going to be easier said than done, however, as the Bills’ schedule over the next four weeks involves games against the New York Jets (who already beat the Bills earlier this season), at Philadelphia, at Kansas City and then home against Dallas.
