NFL players often get frustrated when fans lash out at them about gambling and fantasy football, but Buffalo Bills star Stefon Diggs has taken a shocking route when he recently addressed it.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs apologized on social media to any fans who lost out on money based on his 6-58-1 stat line.
He wrote in the post,
“I ain’t going lie. I do be feeling a lil bad when I f*** up yaw parlay… or fantasy.”
He followed up the message shortly thereafter with another saying, “But trust me it ain’t cause I ain’t trying make dat mf hit for ya.”
After seeing his comments, fans on social media were quick to sing Diggs’ praises:

In five of his last six games against the Patriots, Diggs has recorded 85 yards or more with six touchdowns over that span. Diggs’ yardage may have prevented a few fans from hitting on their parlay but he also provided 17 points in ESPN Fantasy Football leagues and 17.80 points on Sleeper. That is a pretty solid outing for the No. 2 receiver in fantasy football this season.
Baltimore Ravens star Lamar Jackson had a monster game, but his reaction to gamblers was nowhere near the same when he lashed out a few weeks ago.
Diggs has 55 catches for 678 yards and five touchdowns on the season.
The Buffalo Bills likely upset a lot of people as they were a 7.5-point favorite over the Patriots. Not only did they fail to cover the spread, but they also lost outright. They continue to play down to their competition
The Bills are now 4-3 and in second place in the AFC East. They are in danger of being passed by the 3-3 New York Jets who lost their starting quarterback four minutes into this season.
