Ahead of the Thursday Night Football game between the Washington Commanders and the New York Giants, former Big Blue defensive coordinator Wink Martindale took a shot at Stefon Diggs after his breakup with Cardi B.
Speaking to Pat Leonard for his Talkin' Ball show, Martindale broke down the Commanders' offense. He believes the Giants need to “set a record [for] max pressures this game” against the Commanders. Martindale only believes that the Commanders have “one” offensive threat in their wide receiver room, and it's not Diggs, the 12-year veteran.
“I think Stefon—I don't know if it's Cardi B that took his legs or years playing — he's lost his legs a little bit,” Martindale said, firing a shot at Diggs.
“Stefon Diggs. I don’t know if it’s Cardi B that took his legs or if it’s years playing.”

He believes that if the Giants pressure Jayden Daniels, he “really struggles.” You can't send four-man rushes, though, as he can kill defenses with his legs.
Commanders' Stefon Diggs and Cardi B broke up earlier in the year
Diggs and Cardi broke up earlier in the year. It was noticeable before Super Bowl 60, which Diggs played in as part of the New England Patriots, when her message to him was, “Good luck.”
This came a few months after Cardi gave birth to their son in November 2025. During a concert in Los Angeles, she admitted that she was no longer “f**king with my baby daddy,” but she didn't want others talking about him.
They had started dating sometime in 2024 before going public with their relationship in June 2025. A few months later, Cardi announced that she was pregnant with her first child with Diggs, who has five other kids with various partners.
Diggs joined the Commanders during the 2026 offseason on a one-year deal. He has caught 30 passes for 303 yards and five touchdowns so far. The Commanders are currently 2-5-1 and in third place in the NFC East. They will play the Giants for the final time this season after tying with them in Week 5.
