FOXBOROUGH, Mass – The New England Patriots offense massively changed when they signed star receiver Stefon Diggs

But the only question is whether he will be ready to go when the 2025 season begins as he recovers from an ACL tear.

During the Patriots pre-draft press conference on Tuesday, A to Z Sports asked head coach Mike Vrabel how Diggs has looked during the start of the offseason workout program. 

However, Vrabel didn't give much away in his answer, instead just praising him for the type of player he is. 

"I think he's doing everything – like everybody else, he's working hard, and I think he's excited about being here and being a Patriot," Vrabel said. "He's a motivated player, he's a hungry player, just like everybody else that that's here and that's working. 

"That's been the most exciting thing, I think for me, is that they're asking good questions. They’re into it. They know that some things that are going to be different, and that change happens every year."

The new Patriots receiver recently posted a video on his Instagram, showing him running routes just 165 days after his ACL injury. 

Based on that, it certainly seems he's working to be ready to go by the start of the season, and that's the best possible news for Drake Maye and the rest of the team.
