The NFL has closed its investigation into Stefon Diggs, allowing the veteran wide receiver to sign with a new team. Diggs was found not guilty in May of assault charges stemming from an incident involving his private chef.
The league informed Diggs on Friday that it found insufficient evidence to support a suspension under the Personal Conduct Policy. This decision comes after his release from the New England Patriots earlier in the offseason.
Diggs led the Patriots in receiving last season with 85 catches for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns. The team finished 14-3 and reached Super Bowl LX. The 32-year-old four-time Pro Bowler also led the NFL in receptions and receiving yards during the 2020 season with the Buffalo Bills.
Several teams have been identified as potential landing spots. These include the Washington Commanders, Baltimore Ravens, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos. The Patriots have moved on by acquiring A.J. Brown via trade.
