Mic’d-Up Mike Vrabel Trolls Stefon Diggs, Tells Patriots Star To ‘Shut The (Bleep) Up’

Earlier this week, the Patriots shared a mic’d-up video of Vrabel messing with Stefon Diggs during last Sunday’s home win over the Miami Dolphins. Diggs, perhaps jokingly, offered to “throw some blocks” for the offense, with Vrabel responding by trolling the star receiver, who’s an iffy-at-best blocker.
