ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Bills quarterback Josh Allen declined to push the panic button while explaining how unresolved issues stemming from last season led receiver Stefon Diggs to show his displeasure by skipping the team’s start of mandatory practices. Allen listed getting the team’s top receiver more involved in the offense and having more game-planning input as among the player’s concerns. The quarterback then placed the onus on himself to do better to get Diggs back in the fold — and the sooner the better. Diggs is entering his fourth season in Buffalo and previously skipped the team’s spring voluntary workout and practice sessions.
