The New England Patriots informed Stefon Diggs that he will be released on March 11, 2026, ending his one-season tenure with the team[1][2].

This release occurs while Diggs is facing felony strangulation and assault charges related to an alleged December 2025 confrontation with his personal chef, which likely also influenced the team's decision[3][5].
