Josh Allen's latest quote about Stefon Diggs will probably raise some eyebrows

When you become a sports blogger, you're bestowed a handful of Very Serious responsibilities. One of the most important ones – and perhaps the Golden Rule of blogging – is this: always make something out of nothing. The goal should be to ... bait? ... the reader into giving you a click. It's not much, but it's honest work.

The Bills have made that especially easy for me today, which I'm thankful for. Today's exercise in making something out of nothing involves the franchise quarterback (!), a former star wide receiver who was traded after reportedly being very unhappy (!!), and a tweet that leaves important context out of a player's quote (!!!). Textbook stuff.

Josh Allen doesn't miss Stefon Diggs, but he also does? It's confusing

After Wednesday's practice, Allen was asked how the offense is coming along now that they don't have a bonafide WR1 anymore, and if he misses what Diggs brought to the Bills. His response is going to fuel sports talk radio for the rest of the week:

Here's the whole video for context, which is extremely important to add to this conversation for all the obvious reason.

Oooohhhhhh. The drama! And even though Allen's whole answer is the perfect franchise QB response – "we miss his production but I love how hard the guys in our building our grinding" – anyone who's ever spent three minutes on the internet knows that won't stop a soul from hyper-focusing on the part where he says he doesn't miss Diggs. Billy Beane certainly doesn't miss Diggs.

The QTs on that tweet are already exactly what you'd expect, and in a sense it's nice to see that the internet hasn't totally lost its charm. Your most reactionary Bills fan friend is absolutely going to send you this clip later today, so just be prepared for that. Maybe someone will show Diggs this and we'll get a passive aggressive podium battle! I can't believe some people think the preseason is a boring waste of time.
