Patriots coach Mike Vrabel addresses viral video of Stefon Diggs with a mysterious pink substance, emphasizing player decision-making.
New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel addressed a viral video involving star wide receiver Stefon Diggs, which has sparked widespread curiosity. The footage, circulating on social media, shows Diggs on a boat, passing around a bag containing an unidentified pink substance. When pressed by reporters before Wednesday’s practice, Vrabel kept his response brief, stating the team is "aware" of the video but declined to dive into details.
Vrabel emphasized the importance of sound decision-making both on and off the field, a message he said applies to all players. "We want to make great decisions," he noted, adding that any discussions with Diggs would remain private between the player, himself, and the organization.
Diggs, who signed a lucrative three-year, $69 million contract with the Patriots this offseason, is currently sidelined, rehabbing a torn ACL from his time with the Houston Texans. Vrabel expressed optimism about Diggs’ recovery, stating, "We’re working hard to get him back and ready to go." The receiver has been absent from this week’s voluntary practices.
The video’s emergence has added a layer of intrigue to Diggs’ high-profile move to New England. Recently, he was also spotted courtside with hip-hop star Cardi B at a Boston Celtics vs. New York Knicks playoff game, further fueling public interest in his off-field activities.

Stefon Diggs passing a pink mystery bag on a boat? Sounds like he’s auditioning for a remake of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’—but with more questionable cargo! Vrabel’s tight-lipped response suggests the Patriots are less worried about the substance and more about Diggs’ decision to star in his own viral soap opera.
