Cardi B's reaction to Stefon Diggs

Cardi B's relationship with Diggs has made the rapper and Diggs an intersection in the pop culture and the NFL sector.

Cardi B doesn't seem to be there at the Patriots vs. Texans playoff game. Her wild response to Diggs' touchdown catch, nevertheless, continues to make waves.

With just over three minutes left in the second quarter, Diggs threw a rocket to his top receiver, Stefon Diggs, in the red zone for the second of these touchdown passes. Sports Illustrated labelled the snag as “impressive.”

Cardi B then shared an Instagram story of her yelling a number of profanities before cheering, “Let's go Diggs! Let's go right now! I'm not f****** playing!”

In a later post, she yelled, "Walk them down!" several times.

Diggs was already gaining fame as the star wide receiver who played for multiple franchises before he finally joined the Patriots. After Cardi B and Diggs went Instagram official last summer, Diggs has been placed in the pop-culture map much like Travis Kelce.

Patriots vs. Texans updates

With two minutes left and the ball up 12, the Patriots are two minutes away from winning the AFC Championship Game. No timeouts are remaining for the Texans, NBC Sports reported.

If they win, the Patriots will progress to the AFC Championship Game to play the Denver Broncos, who defeated the Buffalo Bills in a thrilling overtime game on Saturday. However, starting quarterback Bo Nix suffered a season-ending ankle injury.
