On May 21, 2025, former Migos rapper Offset released a diss track believed to target New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs, fueled by rumours of Diggs’ romantic involvement with Offset’s estranged wife, Cardi B. The track, reported by Marca, follows a public appearance by Cardi B and Diggs at a New York Knicks playoff game, reigniting speculation about their relationship and sparking a social media frenzy.
Offset’s track contains sharp lyrics, notably mentioning a “route runner chasing charts” and a “sideline star thinking he’s prime time.” Many interpret these lines as direct criticisms of Stefon Diggs’ NFL career and his perceived betrayal. Although Offset does not mention Diggs by name, the context and Offset’s history of addressing personal issues in his music strongly suggest that the Patriots star is the intended target. The track’s aggressive tone contrasts with Offset’s earlier Instagram comment, “I’m happy for her!!,” posted in April 2025 in response to Cardi B and Diggs dancing at Coachella, indicating a shift in his stance.

The couple was seen holding hands and displaying affection, which confirmed months of dating rumors. Their relationship first attracted attention in October 2024 due to sightings in Miami and New York. This interest was further heightened by a Valentine’s Day outing in 2025. Neither Cardi B nor Diggs has officially confirmed their romance, but Cardi hinted at a new relationship in an April 2025 X Spaces chat, saying she’s with a “gorgeous” partner who loves her deeply.

Cardi B and Offset, married in 2017, share three children: Kulture (6), Wave (3), and an eight-month-old daughter born in September 2024. Their relationship has experienced numerous breakups and reconciliations, leading to Cardi filing for divorce in August 2024, marking her second attempt after 2020.The split, described by Cardi’s representative as “a long time coming,” was accompanied by allegations of Offset’s infidelity and Cardi’s flirtatious texts with Diggs during her pregnancy, as claimed by Offset and podcaster DJ Akademiks. These claims remain unconfirmed, with Cardi dismissing them as “crazy” on Instagram Live in October 2024.

— Page Six (@PageSix) May 13, 2025Stefon Diggs, 31, joined the Patriots in 2025 after a successful tenure with the Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans. Known for his explosive plays, Diggs is adapting to a leadership role alongside rookie quarterback Drake Maye. The romance rumours with Cardi B, a Grammy-winning artist, have thrust him into an unfamiliar media spotlight, presenting an off-field distraction as he navigates his new team. NFL insiders praise Diggs’ potential to energise the Patriots, but the ongoing drama could impact public perceptions of his focus.
Fans on social media have reacted diversely, with some criticising Offset for publicising personal grievances through music, while others support his artistic expression. Posts on X, including one from @BardisMedia, highlight the buzz around Cardi B and Diggs’ courtside moment, with comments like “Cardi B & Stefon Diggs just devoured Offset’s courtside picture.” Cardi B has not addressed the diss track, consistent with her approach to earlier rumours, though her history of responding via music or social media suggests a potential reply. Diggs has remained silent, focusing on his NFL commitments.
The feud has sparked discussions about the intersection of hip-hop, sports, and celebrity culture. As the NFL offseason progresses and Cardi B prepares her sophomore album, the situation remains a focal point for fans and media.
