In a trial that began on Monday, Stefon Diggs, a former wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots, was acquitted of assault and strangulation charges after the jury found him not guilty on both counts. The case in Dedham, Massachusetts, featured Jamila Adams, Diggs' former personal chef, who made contradictory statements regarding her allegations. Adams initially claimed that Diggs offered her $100,000 to recant her statement, while also referencing a $5.5 million demand from her attorneys. However, she later refused to clarify her stance on the financial demand, citing lawyer-client privilege. The defense team pointed out the lack of physical evidence, with no injuries documented at the time of the alleged incident. After two days of deliberation, the jury concluded that Adams' testimony was not credible, leading to Diggs' acquittal. With the legal issues resolved, Diggs can now focus on his free agency prospects.
