Stefon Diggs reveals true feelings on Drake Maye-Josh Allen comparisons after Patriots QB's sensational outing vs. Bills

New England Patriots wideout Stefon Diggs had an excellent game against his former team, the Buffalo Bills, on Sunday night. Diggs recorded 146 yards on 10 receptions to help the Patriots beat the Bills 23-20 in Week 5, ending Buffalo's winning start to the season.

After the game, Diggs shared his feelings on playing alongside Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, in comparison to Bills QB Josh Allen.

"I seen a young quarterback take a step in the right direction...they did a lot of comparisons during the week," Diggs said. "It's a hell of a comparison to be compared to Josh Allen. But as you come into your own, Drake Maye has to be Drake Maye. I was just so proud of him, coming in here and leading the team."
