Stefon Diggs is countersuing a man who claims he sexually assaulted him.

Stefon Diggs, the talented wide receiver who recently parted ways with the New England Patriots, is now facing a countersuit from a man who alleges sexual assault occurred three years ago. The legal drama adds another layer to Diggs' turbulent offseason as he remains a free agent.

Christopher Blake Griffin claims that Diggs sexually assaulted him in 2023, alleging that he was drugged during the incident at the athlete's Maryland home. According to court documents obtained by Reality Tea, Griffin has filed a motion requesting that Diggs turn over video footage from the night in question, along with details of the star's financial records. Griffin asserts that Diggs made unwanted advances throughout the evening.

Diggs, however, is fighting back. He has filed a countersuit accusing Griffin of defamation, arguing that the allegations have damaged both his reputation and his earning potential. The legal back-and-forth comes just a week after Diggs was found not guilty in a separate assault case involving his former chef.

This mounting controversy has cast a shadow over Diggs' career, with some analysts suggesting it explains why the once-prolific receiver remains unsigned in free agency. "It seems wherever Diggs goes, trouble follows," one observer noted, pointing to the Patriots' decision to cut ties with the player. As the legal proceedings unfold, the sports world watches closely to see how this will impact one of the NFL's most dynamic—and now most controversial—talents.
