The incident underscored a difficult game for Diggs, who also had limited impact as a veteran All-Pro in the title matchup. The late-game sequence added a contentious moment to a game the Patriots ultimately could not overcome.
Off the field, social-media speculation intensified after the loss, with reports that Diggs and his girlfriend Cardi B unfollowed each other on Instagram, fueling breakup rumors in the wake of Super Bowl LX. Fans and commenters weighed in on what the unfollow might signify amid the broader postgame chatter.
Prior to the game, a video circulating of Cardi B giving a chilly, ambiguous response to a pregame question about Diggs fueled further speculation about the couple’s status, leading some to read the moment as a sign of potential strain.
Meanwhile, Diggs faces legal issues that added to the pressure around his weekend. He is awaiting a court date on charges that include felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery, with the date pushed back to after the Super Bowl. He has denied allegations from a former personal chef alleging abuse and control tied to salary disputes.
Additionally, social-media chatter connected Diggs to an ex-girlfriend, Sky Marlene, who posted a video of him in the days leading into the Super Bowl. While some viewers speculated about a reconciliation, there has been no credible reporting confirming such a development.
Taken together, Diggs’ weekend combined on-field struggles in the biggest game of the season with a flurry of personal-life rumors, leaving a highly scrutinized period for the wide receiver as the team shifts its focus beyond Super Bowl LX.
