The Buffalo Bills’ star receiver had started the season off on a great note. He recorded 100-plus yards in 5 of the 6 Bills’ starting games. But then something changed, and he’s now recorded less than 100 yards in his last four games. This drop in the player’s performance hasn’t gone unnoticed. His brother, Trevon Diggs, who plays as cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys, was especially concerned. And this won’t come as good news for the Bills QB, Josh Allen.
Knowing the potential his brother has, Trevon, couldn’t stand watching him perform below his capabilities on the gridiron. And he wasn’t private and quiet with his criticism either, and took to X to voice out his concerns.

He made his First Team and Second Team All-Pro selections, only after partnering up with Allen.
But there is no doubt that Allen is not performing to his best. And that reflects in the entire team’s performance as well. Is there still hope for him?

For starters, the Bills now have a new offensive coordinator. Joe Brady was already serving as the team’s QB coach, but on November 14, 2023, the management decided to fire OC Ken Dorsey. Brady immediately took over as the interim OC. It’s now up to Joe Brady to ensure that Allen plays well in upcoming games.
Sure, Brady could give personal attention to Allen before as the QB coach, but now he can better assess and set up the other offensive weapons to suit Allen’s playing style. And that includes Stefon Diggs. Maybe that will make his brother happy.

But it doesn’t look like Stefon is going to change his team any time soon. As the Bills take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday Night Football, will the QB-WR duo manage to shut up their critics?
