Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Tuesday he was "very concerned" with Stefon Diggs’ absence from mandatory minicamp this week, but the star wideout’s agent disputed Diggs' absence.
"Stef is not here. Everybody else is here at the current time," McDermott said when questioned by reporters, adding he was "very concerned" by Diggs’ apparent decision to skip out.

"I'm not gonna get into it," McDermott added when pressed further. "Look, I respect everyone's questions and what they want to know about our team. Right now, I'm just not gonna get into that anymore."
Diggs' agent Adisa Bakari later released a statement that disputed McDermott’s, adding he did not "know why [McDermott] said what he said today," according to the NFL Network.
"There are things being worked out — on the way to being worked out," Bakari said, via the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. "Stefon has been there (since) Sunday night. He was in the building this morning."
