Wide receiver Stefon Diggs is not in uniform as the Patriots warm up to play the Vikings on Saturday afternoon in a preseason matchup.
Diggs is in sweats 30 minutes ahead of kickoff, per WBZ’s Dan Roche. Diggs began his NFL career with the Vikings.

The veteran wide receiver avoided the PUP list to begin training camp despite undergoing surgery to repair a torn ACL that was suffered in late October. Diggs made headlines this week when asked by The Athletic’s Dianna Russini on her “Scoop City” podcast if he would be ready for Week 1. Diggs was cagey in response and said he wasn’t certain.
“He’s been out here almost every day,” head coach Mike Vrabel said Thursday. “I’m excited of where he’s at and we’ll see when Week 1 comes, but he’s going to practice today. Hopefully he helps us in the red zone, but we can’t predict the future about Week 1. I just know he’s going to be out there today, and he works hard and he cares, which are two important things.”
Patriots right tackle Morgan Moses also won’t play Saturday, according to NBC Sports Boston’s Phil Perry. The Patriots have been monitoring Moses’ workload ahead of Week 1.
