It is easy to judge when only one side of the story is known. When former New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs was charged midseason with assault, battery, and strangulation or suffocation by his former personal chef, Mila Adams, the world reportedly judged him harshly.
Initial Reports and Public Reaction
Sports media personality Dov Kleiman shared an 11-page Dedham Police Department report on X with the caption: 'Just In: Stefon Diggs full incident report from the Dedham Police Department. If true, he should never play football again… a truly terrifying and hard read.' The narrative quickly turned against Diggs, with many calling for his career to end. Even his former team, which he had led to the Super Bowl, reportedly distanced themselves, citing potential legal distractions and financial considerations.
The Truth Emerges in Court
Months later, in May, as the truth emerged in court, public opinion began to shift. An X account named 'Daphne' wrote a compelling summary: 'The four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver faced up to five years in prison after his former personal chef accused him of assault during a December 2025 dispute. She claimed he slapped her, put her in a headlock, and threw her on a bed. However, she was recorded dancing and having a good time shortly after the alleged incident. No witnesses or injuries were reported, and the jury acquitted him on all charges after a short deliberation.'
Sadly, the damage was already done. Diggs lost endorsements, money, and was attacked online and labeled an abuser before the facts came out. Adams reportedly sought $5.5 million, yet after everything he endured, she faces no consequences for allegedly lying. The post concluded: 'This is why I will never blindly believe all women. Wait for the facts. Accountability should apply to everyone. She deserves five years in prison. Stop believing women. Wait for the facts!'
Courtroom Incident Draws Attention
When the verdict was announced, Stefon Diggs was reportedly caught staring at his personal chef as she left the courtroom. An X account called 'keeno' posted a 12-second clip of Diggs looking at Adams, with the caption: 'Stefon Diggs couldn’t help but check out his BBL chef Mila Adams as she walked out of the courtroom.' Fans found it relatable, with one user commenting, 'Knowing she ain’t good for you but you with all that toxic shit…this ni**a just like me.' Another post read, 'She was not even in sight anymore when he looked back.'
Future with the New England Patriots
Now that Stefon Diggs is free of off-field drama, the question arises: will the New England Patriots consider re-signing him? The team is still looking for a wide receiver and has not yet signed or traded for A.J. Brown. Could Diggs return for a 2.0 version of the 2025 season? Only time will tell.
