Cowboys Sh0cker: What if Dallas cuts Trevon Diggs after he’s played just 13 games since the 2023 preseason?-baobao

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs will undergo a season-ending knee surgery, making for the second season in a row where his campaign has been cut short due to injury

Injuries have plagued the Dallas Cowboys since the beginning of the season. They have lost Da’Ron Bland, Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence all at different times and for different lengths.

But two more injuries have stung more than others as the season nears its end. First, DeMarvion Overshown went down with a serious knee injury that will keep him out likely through the 2025 season.

A similar fate has befallen Trevon Diggs, who has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2024 season with an injury that will require reconstruction on the same knee which he tore his ACL in 2023. There is some suspicion his prospects for 2025 could be in jeopardy as well.

And that brings up some ugly ideas.

Whatever the case becomes for Diggs, he and the Cowboys are in a strange place in their relationship. The Cowboys signed him to a five-year $97 million extension ahead of the 2023 season, but he has only played in 13 games since that time.

DLLS reported over the weekend that the Cowboys had expressed some frustrations with Diggs’ failing to “attack” his rehab in his return from his first injury. The extend of those feelings is not certain, but the Cowboys could be losing time in three consecutive seasons since inking that deal. ..bb

IMPACT: Can Cowboys Survive Trevon Diggs Injury?

That is not a circumstance that any front office wants to be put in. So where do the Cowboys go from here?..bb

Would they cut Diggs to try and save a couple bucks? There is contract escapability after this season, so would the Cowboys see some savings if they cut him?..bb

Not exactly. There seems to be some misunderstanding here that Dallas would “save” his salary if he’s cut. But in fact, his 2025 cap number is about  is $14.25 million. Cutting him “saves” $1.5 million, but Dallas would still be “paying the cap” the remaining $12.750 million…bb

So the question becomes, do you devalue the Pro Bowler to such a drastic point that you’d rather save $1.5 million off a (in Dallas’ case) $300 million cap? That answer seems like it should be “no.” You keep the player…bb

On the other hand, they could wait for him to get back to 100 percent and let him play the contract out. … with escapability in future seasons…bb

Right now, it’s not a murky situation financially as much as it is an unfortunate one behaviorally and physically…bb

To the first point: Why did a Cowboys staffer leak negative info about his rehab? Has Dallas soured on him? And to the second point: Diggs made his name on being a ballhawk corner and had developed much better in coverage in recent seasons. … after an eight- or nine-month rehab – “attacked,” we assume – will be return to be the same player?..bb

The Cowboys right now have more questions about Diggs’ future than they have answers…bb
