Longtime ESPN host Stephen A. Smith's comments on a recent edition of "First Take" caught the attention of star wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

The Bills wideout was the subject of Smith's comments suggesting the three-time Pro Bowler no longer wanted to play in Buffalo. 

"Brother wants out. I’m just telling you what I know," Smith said. "He don’t want to be in Buffalo anymore. I have my sources. Stefon Diggs has got to be there, but he’d prefer to be gone because he’s lost a level of belief in the Buffalo Bills."

Diggs got wind of the comments and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to push back against Smith's remarks.

Diggs tweeted, "100% not true. I don’t know who the source is but I thought (I’d) nip this s--- in the bud already."

BILLS' STEFON DIGGS CLEARS THE AIR AFTER OFFSEASON DRAMA: 'IT’S ALL WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE'

Earlier this offseason, Diggs skipped mandatory minicamp, and Bills coach Sean McDermott said he was "very concerned" by Diggs' absence.

Diggs returned the following day, and his absence was later excused.

When training camp began in late July, Diggs took a few minutes to clear the air, saying the situation was "water under the bridge."
