No additional details are currently available.<\/p>\n<p>A motion hearing was held in the case on Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Stefon Diggs denies allegations<\/h2>\n<p>The Patriots told WBZ-TV in a statement that they&#8217;re &#8220;aware of the accusations&#8221; regarding Diggs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Stefon has informed the organization that he categorically denies the allegations. We support Stefon. We will continue to gather information and will cooperate fully with the appropriate authorities and the NFL as necessary. Out of respect for all parties involved, and given that this is an ongoing legal matter, we will have no further comment at this time,&#8221; the team said.<\/p>\n<p>Diggs&#8217; attorney, David Meier released a statement later Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\ufeffStefon Diggs categorically denies these allegations. They are unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, and were never investigated &#8212; because they did not occur,&#8221; Meier said. &#8220;The timing and motivation for making the allegations is crystal clear: they are the direct result of an employee-employer financial dispute that was not resolved to the employee&#8217;s satisfaction. Stefon looks forward to establishing the truth in a court of law.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Diggs is scheduled to be in court on Friday, January 23 for arraignment.<\/p>\n<p>If the Patriots were to advance in the NFL playoffs, the AFC Championship Game is scheduled for Sunday, January 25.<\/p>\n<p>Chief NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy issued a statement Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are aware of the matter and have been in contact with the club.
