Called Kobe an idol
While the world is in a pandemic spin right now, folks were reeling, and some probably still are, from the loss of Los Angeles Lakers Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant. Despite his upbringing near Washington D.C. in Maryland, Diggs was a huge fan of Bryant and when the basketball star tragically lost his life earlier this year, Diggs was emotional when discussing it. The new Bills wide receiver appeared on Fox Sports show First Things First and was very emotional talking about Bryant, who he called an idol:
