Cardi B made plenty of noise online after the New England Patriots’ 16-3 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers, even though she was not at the game in person. As the Patriots moved on in the postseason, her social media reaction quickly grabbed attention and became part of the conversation.
Before kickoff, several Patriots wives and girlfriends were celebrating together during a birthday gathering ahead of the Wild Card game. In videos shared from that moment, some of them casually admitted they “missed” Cardi B, who was not with the group but later reacted to the Patriots’ win and posted about the team online.

Cardi B did not attend the Patriots’ game in person, but she made up for it on Instagram Stories by celebrating the win with her signature energy. “That’s what I’m talkin’ about!” Cardi said in her Instagram Story after the win, where Stefon Diggs finished with two catches for 16 yards. She followed it up with another clip aimed at the Chargers, shouting, “Take them to Tulum! They wanna go to Tulum, tonight, on Delta! Put them on Delta!” The comments were a playful jab suggesting the Chargers should start packing for a post-season vacation in Mexico.
That crossover has followed Cardi B beyond playoff celebrations and into more serious headlines tied to Stefon Diggs. In recent weeks, Diggs has been at the center of legal attention after facing assault and strangulation charges connected to an alleged dispute with his former personal chef. Cardi publicly defended him on social media, posting messages that showed her confidence in his innocence before later deleting them, a move that drew strong reactions online.
The situation intensified when Diggs was also pulled into another viral controversy involving rapper Offset. A leaked audio clip, shared by Celina Powell, allegedly featured Offset making a shooting threat toward Diggs, which quickly sparked backlash and calls for legal action across social media. Together, the incidents shifted the conversation from celebration to scrutiny, showing how quickly sports, celebrity relationships, and online reactions can collide.
Patriots WAGs Quietly Admitting They Missed Her Changed The Vibe After The Win
In contrast to Cardi’s online celebration, a group of Patriots wives and girlfriends took a party bus to New England’s Wild Card Round matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium. Multiple videos from the ride were shared on social media, including one captioned, “@iamcardib we miss you girl,” as the group danced along to Cardi B’s song “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion.
The same group also paused the celebration to sing “Happy Birthday” to Carson Bradbury, the wife of Patriots center Garrett Bradbury. While Cardi was not with them in person, the moment showed how present she still felt within the group during the pregame festivities.
In the end, the night showed how closely Patriots football and pop culture can overlap. Even without being at the stadium, Cardi B still found a way to be part of the moment, from pregame shoutouts to her viral reaction after the win.
