Influencer says Stefon Diggs needs "to be neutered" amid backlash over personal life

An influencer has publicly criticised NFL player Stefon Diggs over his personal life as he faces an ongoing legal case

Stefon Diggs has been criticised publicly by an online influencer following renewed attention on the NFL player’s personal life. The comments were made during a recent livestream and have circulated widely on social media as Diggs also faces an ongoing legal matter.

During a broadcast on Kick, the influencer known as Akademiks addressed Diggs directly, stating, “You need to be neutered, na. You’re too fing horny,” before referencing the athlete’s family situation and relationships.

He added, “Your dk is gonna be your downfall,” and later said, “Most of us men, our dk is our downfall. We too horny. It’s like we have an insatiable appetite for more.”

Diggs, who currently plays for the New England Patriots, reportedly has six children with several women. He shares four daughters with Cayy Benji, Aileen Lopera, Kennedy Moore and a former partner, as well as a son with K’yanna Barber. He also shares a child with his current partner, Cardi B, who gave birth in November.

Cardi B addressed online criticism over the couple spending Christmas apart in a video posted to X. “Y’all need to calm down. Is y’all cool?” she said. “Y’all been dragging me for three or four days.” She added, “I already had a baby. Y’all want me to put my baby back in my p**sy? I don’t know what y’all want me to do.”

Diggs is also facing legal proceedings following an alleged incident involving his private chef in Massachusetts on December 2. He has been charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery.

His attorney, David Meier, said in a statement, “Stefon Diggs categorically denies these allegations. They are unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, and were never investigated — because they did not occur.”

The New England Patriots also issued a statement confirming they are aware of the allegations and that Diggs denies the claims. The team said it would continue to cooperate with authorities as the matter progresses.

Diggs is scheduled to be arraigned on January 23, shortly before the AFC Championship game.
