Stefon Diggs isn’t new to making headlines on and around the gridiron. But this latest one — stemming from a video — has nothing to do with football.

A recent viral video shows the New England Patriots’ wide receiver on a yacht in Miami, partying with several women. He is seen cracking jokes, and at one point, appearing to show a pink substance in a small bag.
While social media users seemed fine with Diggs partying on a yacht, it was the last part of the video, the frame with the pink bag, which sent internet detectives into overdrive. And as it turns out, the sleuths have accused Diggs of handling a substance called Tusi, or “pink c*caine”.
But before delving into it, let’s be clear: These are fan accusations, and nothing has been confirmed officially. Moreover, neither Diggs nor the Patriots have commented on the video’s content, and there has been zero evidence suggesting anything illegal.

But, as is often the case, online speculation moves faster than facts. So what exactly is this substance seen in the video, which many have speculated to be a party drug?
Tusi (also known as 2C-B or pink c*caine) is a synthetic party drug gaining traction across nightlife scenes. Despite its relatively suggestive nickname, it rarely contains actual c*caine.
Instead, it’s often a dangerous mix of ketamine, MDMA, methamphetamine, and sometimes fentanyl — an unpredictable combo with serious health risks. As per reports, the drug’s effects can include euphoria, hallucinations, and stimulant highs — but also paranoia, cardiac issues, and other worse physical complications.
Naturally, when Diggs was accused by some of possessing the drug, questions were raised about his new team, the Patriots, and head coach Mike Vrabel. When Vrabel was asked about the situation during the press interaction at the team’s OTA, he gave a cautious but firm response.
“It’s something that we’re aware of, and obviously we want to make great decisions on and off the field,” the Patriots HC said. “Any conversations I’ve had with Stefon will remain between him and I in the club.”
And when asked whether Diggs was present at practice, Vrabel quipped, “Not if he’s not here,” before confirming his absence was excused under the team’s voluntary OTA rules.
The party video also reignited rumors linking Diggs to rapper Cardi B, who was reportedly onboard the yacht. Again, nothing has been confirmed, but the internet doesn’t wait for anyone.
So as things stand, it’s just a viral clip peppered with a heavy dose of speculation. Though the NFL is reportedly aware of the video, no formal investigation or statement has been made.
And until that changes, any speculation about what was in that pink bag are exactly that — speculations, and not facts.
