The New England Patriots' Stefon Diggs was not present for Wednesday's voluntary organized team activity, one day after a video of the wide receiver surfaced on social media in which he was on a boat and flashed an unidentified pink substance while surrounded by three women, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports..

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel, who addressed reporters before practice, was asked if the video is something the team needs to look into.

"It's something we're aware of and obviously we want to make great decisions on and off the field," Vrabel said. "... Any conversations that I've had with Stefon will remain between him and I and the club."

Vrabel confirmed that he has been in communication with Diggs as he has been with every player on the roster.

The NFL, via a spokesperson, declined comment Wednesday.

The Patriots signed Diggs, 31, to a three-year, $69 million contract in March. Diggs continues to rehabilitate from a torn ACL sustained in Week 8 last season with the Houston Texans and was present for at least one of the Patriots' voluntary practices last week.

"The timelines, and the prognosis, we're working hard to get him back and be ready to go. When he's here, we'll coach him and have him ready to go," said Vrabel, who fielded six straight questions on Diggs at the start of his media availability.
