Diggs talked about Patriots coach Mike Vrabel being part of the impetus to sign with New England. He had met Vrabel during a Pro Bowl and was impressed. The wide receiver recited chapter and verse about Vrabel, and the importance of him being a former player.

The Patriots finally addressed their offense in free agency, signing veteran wideout Stefon Diggs and Mike Vrabel believes in the receiver.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel wouldn’t give a timeline on wide receiver Stefon Diggs’ recovery from knee surgery, but he did say the newly signed pass catcher is “on schedule.” Diggs tore his ACL in October.
