DeMario “Pop” Douglas, a Patriots receiver, had nothing but praise for Stefon Diggs’ contributions this season.
Following New England’s 28-16 victory over the Houston Texans in the Divisional Round of the playoffs on Sunday, the rapper let the naysayers hear how happy she is of her team during the Pats’ current postseason run.
Douglas, who scored a touchdown in Sunday’s game, is grateful for Cardi’s unwavering support of Diggs, despite criticism that it is excessive. Douglas said:
“That is tough,”.
“That’s my boy’s girl, and it’s amazing to have her cheering for us and having Stef and her together making it big.”
He also complimented Diggs’ leadership in the locker room, stating that having the NFL veteran as a teammate is a blessing because of all the wisdom he imparts to the younger players. He said:
“One thing about him, he does not let up, like, he’s gonna let you know if you slackin’ or he feels like you not playing up to par, and that’s what you need,”.
“I feel like that’s what keeps us going.”
This Sunday at Empower Field at Mile High, just one victory away from Super Bowl LX, the Pats’ receiving core will need that same vigor against a formidable Denver Broncos defense.
