The man accusing NFL free agent Stefon Diggs of sexual assault has turned over more than 100 pages of messages between himself and the decorated wide receiver as part of the ongoing legal battle, TMZ has reported.

Attorneys working on behalf of Diggs previously demanded the messages, which they claimed accuser Christopher Griffith failed to provide, according to court documents obtained by The Daily Mail.

Now, TMZ is reporting that Griffith has submitted those messages, which he believes will back up his allegations of sexual assault. The content of the messages has not been revealed.

The Daily Mail has sought comment from attorneys representing both Diggs and Griffith.

While still a member of the New England Patriots in October of 2025, Diggs sued Griffith for defamation, claiming the online influencer was spreading lies about him on social media. Griffith later countersued, claiming Diggs drugged him and sexually assaulted him – something the NFL star denies.

A July status report in the case states that the discovery process in the case has been completed. Diggs’ legal team does intend to file a dispositive pretrial motion, which is a request asking a judge to rule on some or all of the claims of a case.

Free agent Stefon Diggs has not drawn major interest despite his on-field results 

Christopher Griffith (right) alleged that the NFL star intentionally drugged him and made unwanted sexual advances towards him. Later, Griffith claims, Diggs' brother attacked him

In his counterclaim to the defamation lawsuit, Griffith alleged that on May 21, 2023, he was invited to stay the night at Diggs's Maryland property as a guest of the wideout. Late that night, he said he and Diggs went out to a couple of nightclubs in Washington DC, where they stayed out until the early hours of May 22.

According to the court filing, while out partying, Diggs allegedly offered Griffith 'candy.' He initially refused but later accepted and ate some after growing hungry.

However, Griffith claimed, the candy proved to be drugged. He alleged that after consuming the substance, his 'pupils became extremely dilated, to the point that he could not see the color of his irises,' his 'skin began to tingle to the touch,' and he 'found it difficult to form' complete sentences. 

He also alleged in the court paper that, despite not consuming any alcohol or other substances, he became disorientated, leading him to believe that he had been drugged.

Griffith further claimed in his court filing that Diggs exposed himself in his car and began masturbating in front of his passenger, according to the countersuit.

Diggs allegedly encouraged Griffith to touch his genitalia. Griffith further claimed that he clearly and forcefully asked Diggs to put his penis away before exiting the vehicle and heading towards the property door, according to the filing.

Griffith said Diggs exposed himself and tried to make a pass at him in May of 2023 

On the way to the entrance to the residence, Diggs allegedly gripped Griffith's shoulder and pulled him closer. He then tried to kiss Griffith on the mouth but the stylist avoided the attempt, according to the countersuit. Instead, Diggs put his tongue in Griffith's ear and whispered to him to 'come to his room,' the counterclaim alleged.

Griffith allegedly attempted to resist but said he found it difficult to exert force against Diggs because of the alleged substance he had unwittingly consumed. Upon entering the home, Diggs went to his room, but Griffith ran to the bathroom to plan his 'escape,' according to the court filing.

When Griffith left the bathroom, he said two women and a man, Darez Diggs - one of Diggs's younger brothers - confronted him. They allegedly threatened him and demanded that he not discuss the events of the evening and to instead say that he had stolen items from the residence, according to the court paper.

Griffith claimed he was forced into a vehicle and dropped off at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in nothing but an ill-fitting sweatshirt. Still disorientated, he managed to secure a ticket back to Los Angeles.

On May 29, 2023, Griffith was attacked inside his own apartment building by associates of Diggs, according to the countersuit.

Diggs split with ex-girlfriend, rapper Cardi B, around the time of the Super Bowl in February 

The alleged assailants, including Diggs' brother Darez, are said to have kicked and punched him several times in the head in the elevator, and to have taken several valuable items including his phone, the filing continued.

Footage later emerged of the attack, and Darez pleaded no contest to one felony count of grand theft from a person in March 2024 in Los Angeles. He was sentenced to two years of probation and ordered to perform 20 hours of community service.

In addition to PTSD, Griffith claimed he suffered a traumatic brain injury, fractures to his left leg and ankle, and a meniscus tear in his left knee among other injuries in the attack.

Diggs sued Griffith for defamation over the claims, maintaining that the false accusations have seriously damaged his reputation.

Diggs is coming off a Super Bowl appearance in his lone season with the New England Patriots, who released him as he faced up to five years in prison after being accused of physically attacking his female chef in a payment dispute. He pleaded not guilty to a felony charge of strangulation and a misdemeanor charge of assault and battery, and after a two-day trial, Diggs was cleared.

Although Diggs welcomed a baby with rapper Cardi B last year, the couple has repeatedly split over the ensuing months.
