Josh Allen has spoken.

We're a few weeks removed from when Stefon Diggs skipped out on the first day of mandatory camp. The story spread like wildfire across social media after Bills head coach Sean McDermott said he was "very concerned."

Since then, there have been rumors about Diggs being traded, that he's unhappy with the organization, and that maybe he and Josh Allen aren't on good terms. Allen has spoken out, squashing any and all rumors surrounding the All-Pro reciever.

Things are typically tight-lipped at One Bills Drive, there isn't a lot of information that comes out that the front office doesn't want released. Most likely, we will never truly know what happened with Diggs and the front office, but that doesn't matter.

Allen put to rest any kind of notion that there's bad blood between the two of them. Specifically, Allen pointed to the national media for making something out of nothing with the whole Diggs controversy.

Will Compton, co-host of Bussin' with the Boys, jumped in to ask Allen about his relationship with Diggs. "Can you talk about your relationship with him?"

Allen immediately fired back, "I love him, that's my guy." The franchise quarterback opened up on what had gone down with Diggs. More specifically, why no one needs to worry about their relationship or Diggs' next move.

"The media has blown this so far out of proportion… Coach asked him to go home, we were in talks and discussions of trying to resolve some things. It wasn't anything major. Media just blew it up, they're still talking about it… There's no reason to continue talking about it. He was on the field with us the next day, it was not a big deal."

Allen and Diggs have been a dominant duo since joining forces and will continue to be for the next few years as both Allen and Diggs are locked in for the next few seasons.

Diggs isn't going anywhere, Allen has his back. Bills Mafia can rest easy knowing their WR1 and QB1 are more than okay.
