When the New York Jets brought in Aaron Rodgers to be their quarterback this offseason, most analysts thought that Gang Green would be at the center of media scrutiny while the rest of the AFC East lurked in the shadows.
Somehow, that is no longer the case.
Whether it’s key players sitting out major portions of practices, arrests, or star players looking for new homes, it’s been a busy few weeks for the rest of the residents in the Jets’ division. While each team is over a month away from the start of training camp, it’s time to review where each team sits as everyone goes away on vacation.
Buffalo Bills – Stefon Diggs Troubles?
It’s been an odd offseason for the Buffalo Bills. After their divisional round loss to Cincinnati, wide receiver Stefon Diggs seemingly grew frustrated at the team’s inability to reach the Super Bowl. Speculation of issues growing within the team and their star have continued since then.
During the mandatory minicamp, the All-Pro wideout was not seen on the first day of practice. Head coach Sean McDermott then called his absence “concerning” which only added fuel to the fire of some trouble brewing up north.
Only to have it later reported that day that Diggs had been inside the team facility but just simply did not practice. The back-and-forth discussions between their top wideout and the organization seem to be ongoing, but for a team looking to compete for a championship, distractions like this will only get in the way of their ultimate goal.
And it leaves them vulnerable in a loaded division that a team like the Jets could take advantage of.
