Friday, October 16, 2026 -NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs has denied allegations that he directed an assault on a concierge whom he allegedly blamed for the theft of his Ferrari. In court documents obtained by TMZ, Diggs argued that Nigel King, who is suing him for defamation, had provided no evidence that he instructed anyone to attack King on December 4, 2025.
King said he provided travel and logistical services for
wealthy clients, including Diggs, and helped coordinate the transport of the
player’s Ferrari from Miami to New York in July 2024. According to King’s
lawsuit, third parties stole the vehicle, but Diggs subsequently accused him of
being responsible. King maintains that he was never charged, cited or
identified as a suspect.
King sued Diggs, his brother Darez Diggs and other
individuals, alleging that the player spread false claims linking him to the
theft. He also alleged that Diggs’ associates assaulted him at Tootsie’s
Cabaret in Florida on December 4, 2025, and claimed that Diggs directed the
incident.
Diggs disputes that allegation and denies making defamatory
statements. He has asked the court to dismiss several claims and require King
to pay a portion of his legal fees. Separately, Diggs faces a lawsuit from
former friend Christopher Griffith alleging defilement. Diggs denies the
accusation and alleges that Griffith fabricated the account after being caught
attempting to steal property. Griffith denies wrongdoing
