Buffalo Bills receiver Stefon Diggs is back in the building and participating in mandatory minicamp on Wednesday.
Diggs' return comes after Tuesday's kerfuffle, in which the wideout reported to the team facility but left before practice. The move caused head coach Sean McDermott to say he was "very concerned" by Diggs' absence.
The wideout skipping the first day of minicamp was "an in-house situation that they're on the way to resolving," NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday on Inside Minicamps on NFL+.
Diggs' appearance Wednesday indicates that progress has been made in that area, and McDermott provided clarity on the situation after practice.
"We had a good conversation, great communication," McDermott said. "We got to a point yesterday where we just felt like we all needed a break and some space. So, I gave Stef permission to get some space and head out and picked up those conversations after practice. So let me make it clear: It was not Stef leaving unexcused -- he was excused, by me. And so those conversations have got us to, what I think and believe, is a great spot."
"Internally, we're working on some things, not football-related -- but Stef, he's my guy, I f------ love him," quarterback Josh Allen noted on Tuesday.
While there remains no indication of what caused Diggs to leave the facility Tuesday, his return a day later is a good sign that sides will resolve their issues and move forward with the work at hand.
