The Bills are still seen as one of the strongest squads and true contenders for the upcoming Super Bowl. However, they need to solve a massive problem going on inside their locker room, and it involves two of their biggest stars.
During this offseason, Diggs was absent during the beginning of the Bills minicamp. According to rumors, he was reportedly uncomfortable being around Josh Allen, and Robert Griffin III has now lent support to this notion.
“Him and Josh Allen seemed to have a bromance rolling, it felt like for years there, until there was a problem with their game against the Bengals in the playoffs,” RG3 said. “So, I think it’s clear, this is a personal thing between Josh and Diggs. And they have to get their partnership back on the field, and that’s part of playing quarterback. I think Josh Allen’s running into that right now. Everything is fine, until it’s not fine in a relationship when it comes to a quarterback and a wide receiver like Diggs. So Josh has to manage that relationship the right way and I think he’s the only one that can rectify.”
According to Sean McDermott, the team’s head coach, everything was “solved” regarding Diggs’ absence. However, the former NFL quarterback thinks that both players still need to talk about what happened during their loss againts the Bengals.

“So I’ve talked with people close to the situation, and really, what it boils down to is, in that last game against the Bengals, Diggs was the most targeted receiver in that game. I think he had get 10 targets in that game,” RG3 said. “But when they were down 17, they had a 10 play drive that ended in a turnover on downs and Diggs only got one ball thrown his way. So you would think that a player of Diggs’ caliber with the relationship that he has with Josh Allen, in those moments, he would look to him more often, and that didn’t happen.”
