Diggs admitted that he doesn't trust many people. Todd Downing, he said, is one of them. The post How a lesson from Randy Moss helped Patriots WR coach win Stefon Diggs’s trust appeared first on Boston.

Diggs has played an instrumental role in Drake Maye’s breakout season, emerging as the second-year quarterback’s most trusted target. Diggs is on pace to finish with his seventh 1,000-yard season, a mark he hit four times with the Buffalo Bills.
