The Buffalo Bills hoped to take the next step toward finally winning their first Super Bowl championship when they started mandatory minicamp.
But they hit an apparent snag on Tuesday when star wide receiver Stefon Diggs didn’t show up for practice, causing many to speculate that perhaps he was unhappy about something regarding his circumstances on the team.
But he was back on the field on Wednesday, and apparently, the Bills put in a good day of work.
In fact, they decided to call off the rest of minicamp, which means they will be off for a while and free to enjoy the summer until then.
The Bills have cancelled their third and final mandatory minicamp practice, which was scheduled for Thursday.
School’s out for summer.

One has to wonder why Diggs, one of the NFL’s best players at his position, would be unhappy with Buffalo.
In each of the last three seasons, he has had no fewer than 103 catches, 1,225 yards, and eight touchdowns while being named to the Pro Bowl in each of those campaigns.
He is the team’s main offensive weapon, and a good chunk of their championship hopes rests on his shoulders.
As a team, however, the Bills have to do something about their habit of coming up short when it matters most.
In the three seasons that quarterback Josh Allen has been elite, they have finished first in the AFC East but have failed to reach the Super Bowl and have reached the conference championship game only once.
Will this be the season in which the Bills overcome their demons, which stretch back to the early 1990s when they lost four straight Super Bowls, and finally win it all?
