Stefon Diggs' Attorney Hopes Exoneration Leads to NFL Contract

Former New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs was found not guilty of strangulation and assault charges on May 5, clearing the path for a potential return to the NFL.

Attorney Mitchell Schuster stated that teams were 'reluctant' to sign Diggs due to the false allegations hanging over his head. Schuster believes the 32-year-old four-time Pro Bowler will be signed 'imminently' now that he is vindicated.

Diggs has been a free agent since March 11. His legal team is pleased he intends to continue his career, hinting that a deal could come during OTAs. palladian.co.za
