"Regardless, veteran wide receiver Diggs is remaining upbeat about the team. The last thing expected from such an experienced Head Coach as Vrabel was a team that was its own worst enemy, yet that's exactly what they've been. They've committed a huge number of penalties, allowed 12 sacks, and had costly turnovers, including five in the latest gift-wrapped loss to the Steelers."
"Stefon Diggs was brought in to be the Patriots' No. 1 wide receiver. Signed as a free agent by Mike Vrabel, his health status was an issue since he was returning to the field after surgery for an ACL tear. Whether he'd be able to suit up at all early in the season was in question. Yet. Diggs' hard work got him back on the field for all of the first three games, and he's acquitted himself well."
"Another player who's been pulling his weight after returning from a major knee injury is veteran former Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs. While his stats aren't up to his past history as a Pro Bowler, they've been decent thus far. He's coming off that ACL injury, and its impact on his play can't be overestimated. Yet, despite that, he still leads all Patriots' wide receivers in both catches and yards with 13 catches for 112 yards."
The New England Patriots opened the 2025 season 1-2 under head coach Mike Vrabel. The team has been its own worst enemy, committing numerous penalties, allowing 12 sacks, and turning the ball over multiple times, including five turnovers in a loss to the Steelers. Positive performances have come from second-year quarterback Drake Maye, veteran tight end Hunter Henry, and rookie linemen Will Campbell and Jared Wilson. Stefon Diggs returned from ACL surgery, played the first three games, and leads Patriots receivers with 13 catches for 112 yards. Diggs remains optimistic about what the season can bring, while the team must reduce self-inflicted errors.
