At Super Bowl LX Opening Night on 2 February 2026, held at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California, Stefon Diggs faced a barrage of questions during media availability. The event, part of the build-up to the game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, saw Diggs, in his 11th NFL season, addressing his pursuit of a first championship ring.

A reporter directly probed him on his relationship with Cardi B, asking: "After you get a ring, is Cardi getting her ring?" Diggs, 32, responded with a chuckle, stating, "It’s on the agenda maybe, right? Right? I gotta get mine first, though."

This cryptic reply hinted at the possibility of a proposal or engagement, but emphasised his priority on securing a Super Bowl victory first. The couple, who have been in Santa Clara for the week, hope for a celebratory outcome, with Cardi B, 33, expected to cheer from the stands.

Diggs' performance this season, leading the Patriots with 1,013 receiving yards on 85 receptions and four touchdowns, has been solid, though his post-season stats are more modest at 73 yards on 11 catches with one touchdown across three games. The Patriots enter as 4.5-point underdogs against the Seattle Seahawks, but head coach Mike Vrabel dismissed the odds, noting the team's record speaks for itself.

She was watching the games, she was texting me before the game and after the game and checking on me and making sure I was alright.”
