Patriots WR Stefon Diggs charged with assault, strangulation
New England Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs has reportedly been charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges as the result of a a Dec. 2 incident, according to Boston 25 News.
Diggs made a remote court appearance on Tuesday morning with his attorney attempting to have the police report impounded. Attorney Michael DiStefano was arguing that the details of the charges should remain sealed.
DiStefano also reportedly told the court that Diggs has offered a financial settlement to resolve the issue with the alleged victim.
"As we speak, they're working to come to an agreement on that," DiStefano said.
"The New England Patriots are aware of the accusations that have been made regarding Stefon Diggs," read a statement from the team on Tuesday. "Stefon has informed the organization that he categorically denies the allegations. We support Stefon. We will continue to gather information and will cooperate fully with the appropriate authorities and the NFL as necessary. Out of respect for all parties involved, and given that this is an ongoing legal matter, we will have no further comment at this time."
There is a Jan. 23 scheduled arraignment for Diggs. Should the Patriots advance in the NFL playoffs, the AFC Championship Game is set for Sunday, Jan. 25.
The judge in the case will reportedly consider a request to extend the arraignment date to March.
The 32-year-old Diggs is in his 11th NFL season and first with the Patriots after signing a three-year, $69 million to join the team in March. Through 16 games this season he has 82 receptions for 970 yards and four touchdowns.
