Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla, is making headlines once again—this time in the world of American football. Musk has publicly expressed his admiration for Dallas Cowboys star cornerback Trevon Diggs, even offering to gift him a brand-new Tesla Model S. However, there’s a catch.
According to sources close to Musk, the tech mogul has one condition: Diggs must record at least 10 interceptions this season. If he achieves this milestone, Musk has vowed to personally deliver the luxury electric vehicle to AT&T Stadium.
Musk’s Unexpected Support for the Cowboys
While Musk is widely known for his ventures in technology, space exploration, and social media, his public support for the Dallas Cowboys has taken fans by surprise. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Musk referred to the Cowboys as “America’s Team” and praised Diggs for his elite ball-hawking skills.
Diggs’ Challenge: 10 Interceptions for a Tesla
Trevon Diggs has established himself as one of the top playmakers in the NFL. His best season came in 2021, when he led the league with 11 interceptions. However, reaching double digits in picks is a difficult feat, especially with quarterbacks being more cautious when targeting him.
When asked about Musk’s challenge, Diggs responded with confidence: “Man, I love Tesla, and I love making plays. If I can help my team win and get a Tesla in the process, let’s do it.”
Musk’s Influence on Sports Continues
This isn’t the first time Elon Musk has crossed into the sports world. From joking about buying Manchester United to engaging with top athletes online, Musk enjoys mixing his tech empire with sports culture. His latest challenge to Diggs is yet another example of how he blends business with entertainment.
What’s Next?
The challenge has been set, and now it’s up to Diggs to deliver. With the season underway, Cowboys fans will be keeping a close eye on their star defender’s interception count. If he reaches 10, not only will he further solidify his reputation as one of the league’s best defensive backs, but he’ll also drive off in a cutting-edge Tesla.
Will Diggs rise to the challenge, or will Musk’s offer remain just another viral moment? Cowboys Nation—and the entire NFL—will be watching closely.
