Stefon Diggs won’t have to face a judge until after the NFL season — the New England Patriots star’s arraignment in his assault case has been postponed.

TMZ Sports has confirmed Diggs’ court date — which was initially slated for Jan. 23, two days before the AFC Championship Game — is now Feb. 13 … five days after the Super Bowl.

The Pats have a legit shot at making it all the way to the Big Game this year … and should they win it all, Diggs will be able to partake in all the post-Super Bowl festivities.

Diggs is facing felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges after his ex-chef accused him of getting physical during a dispute over salary payments.

Diggs denied the claims through his attorneys … and the Pats stated they support their receiver.

Diggs’ girlfriend, rapper Cardi B, also passionately defended her man on social media … stating she’s confident the former chef lied.

The rescheduling isn’t too surprising … as Diggs’ attorneys said they would request one at a previous hearing.
