The alleged incident occurred on December 2 at Diggs' home in Dedham, Massachusetts, according to major media accounts. Court records indicate that a chef told officers Diggs smacked her across the face and tried to choke her with the crook of his elbow, causing shortness of breath. Diggs' attorney stated that Diggs 'categorically denies these allegations,' calling them unsubstantiated and motivated by a financial dispute.
The credibility of the chef's allegations has not been determined. Diggs signed a three-year, $69 million contract with the New England Patriots last year but was released in March amid controversy, reports said. In a separate legal matter, Diggs sued influencer Christopher Griffith for defamation in November 2025 after Griffith accused him of drugging, unwanted sexual advances, and conspiracy to kill, according to multiple reports.
He categorically denies these allegations
Griffith has countersued, those reports added. Additionally, Diggs and rapper Cardi B split months after welcoming a baby boy in November 2025, according to reports.
