OTAs for NFL teams across the league are in full swing.
This is a time for players to get re-acclimated to the everyday demands of the NFL, and get back into playing shape.
For the Buffalo Bills, Stefon Diggs’ absence has been widely noted, causing concern among fans and analysts alike.
According to Eric Mangini, a former NFL coach, “They’ve had a long time to talk to work out the issues from last season.”
“Where I’m most concerned is they’ve had a long time to talk to work out the issues from last season.”

Mangini is concerned that the situation between the Bills and Diggs hasn’t gotten better.
What those issues are, are relatively unknown by the general public.
Diggs is tied to the team until 2027, but the team has an out after the 2025 campaign.
Last year, Diggs had 108 receptions, 1,429 yards, and 11 touchdowns.
This was the second-highest amount of yards in a single season in his career, and it was a career-high for touchdowns.
The Bills are seen by the general public as one of the best teams in the AFC, and Diggs is a large part of their roster.
He and Josh Allen have seemingly developed a strong on-field rapport, which could now be in jeopardy.
If Diggs were to sit out during the season, it could prove to be catastrophic for the Bills offense.
They did add Dalton Kincaid during the draft, who could be a valuable contributor from the tight end position.
However, the team hasn’t necessarily gotten the yield from Gabriel Davis that they’ve wanted, leaving a void behind Diggs on the depth chart.
This continues to be a developing story, with more information to follow as we get closer to the season.
