The NFL discipline part of the Stefon Diggs case is over.
NFL.com, citing NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport, reported Friday that the league has closed its review of the matter involving Diggs and his former personal chef. The conclusion: insufficient evidence to support a finding that Diggs violated the personal conduct policy.
What the NFL decision means
This does not rewrite the whole public story. It means the league did not find enough evidence, under its own review process, to support a personal conduct policy violation. That matters because the NFL can discipline players even when a criminal case does not produce a conviction.
In Diggs' case, that second track is now closed. NFL.com framed the decision as removing the possibility of league punishment tied to this case.
The case background
Diggs had faced felony strangulation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges stemming from an alleged dispute with his former personal chef. He denied wrongdoing, and on May 5 he was found not guilty.
The distinction is important for the headline. The criminal case ended first. The NFL review had remained a separate football question because the personal conduct policy process is not identical to a courtroom verdict.
Why fans care now
Diggs is a free-agent wide receiver, and the NFL calendar is about to move toward summer break and training camp. If a veteran receiver market forms late, teams now have one fewer uncertainty to account for.
NFL.com noted that Diggs spent 2025 with New England, posted 85 catches for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns, and was released earlier this offseason. The football conversation now shifts away from discipline risk and back toward fit, price, age, role, and whether a contender wants a veteran receiver before camp.
What is next
The next checkpoint is not a league office update. It is whether a team decides the football value is still worth the contract.
For now, the clean version is this: the NFL reviewed the matter, found insufficient evidence for a personal conduct policy violation, and will not discipline Diggs over this case.
The NFL has closed its Stefon Diggs review and will not discipline him, saying there is insufficient evidence to support a personal conduct policy violation. The football effect is simple: teams no longer have to price a pending league suspension into his free-agent market.
