The Dallas Cowboys have been ravaged with injuries in 2025. On Friday, it was announced they have yet another one in their secondary, and it’s certainly a head scratcher. According to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, cornerback Trevon Diggs will miss Sunday’s game against the Washington Commanders due to suffering a concussion at home.
Diggs has had his fair share of setbacks the last few years. He tore his ACL in 2023 after two games and missed the rest of the season. Last December, it was announced that Diggs would miss the remainder of the season and would need to have surgery on the same knee where his ACL injury occured.
With this injury, 2025 will be the third consecutive season in which Diggs hasn’t played a full season after signing a five-year, $97 million extension. That isn’t ideal at all for a guy that’s looked at as the top player in the secondary in Dallas.
This will mean more playing time for Kaiir Elam who has struggled mightily this season, or possibly second-year cornerback Caelen Carson who is back at practice after rehabbing a knee injury.
