Stefon Diggs Shuts Down Rumors That He’s Cheating On Cardi B After IG Model Post Photos

Stefon Diggs may be winning on the field and in love — but the NFL star had to do a little damage control this week after a messy rumor exploded online.

A cozy old photo of Diggs and an Instagram model resurfaced, sending the internet into a frenzy. To make matters even wilder, the model posted a cryptic (and pretty explicit) message on social media, bragging, “I don’t post him, I be with him in real life & we be doing it raw [kiss emoji].” Yikes.

Fans immediately speculated that Diggs might be playing both sides, especially with all the buzz linking him to Cardi B. But Diggs didn’t waste any time shutting it all down. Hopping online today, he wrote bluntly, “That photo is old,” according to Live Bitez. No drama here — at least, not from his side.

Though neither Cardi nor Diggs has officially confirmed they’re dating, the evidence is piling up. They’ve been spotted at the same places more than once, and even reportedly spent Valentine’s Day together earlier this year. (Though Cardi later blamed her ex, Offset, for “ruining” the holiday.)

The romance rumors first caught fire last October when DJ Akademiks claimed Diggs and Cardi were getting close. At the time, Cardi played it cool, refusing to deny the chatter and simply teasing, “I’mma just let it ride out, cuz I think it’s cute, it’s funny.”

With Diggs shutting down side chick rumors and Cardi clearly basking in new love, it looks like this quarterback may have just scored big off the field too.
