Stefon Diggs gets into heated altercation with Packers, Jaire Alexander: ‘I’m never the bigger person’

Things got heated early on Sunday at Lambeau Field, and Stefon Diggs wasn’t having it.

The Houston Texans star wide receiver got into it with Green Bay cornerback Jaire Alexander near the Packers sideline before Sunday’s game even got going. The two had to be separated after the scuffle escalated. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur got involved briefly before a Texans coach and multiple officials stepped in to keep what turned into seemingly the entire Packers roster from running Diggs off the field.
