Trevon diggs traded?

Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs has been mentioned as a cut or trade candidate in just a few weeks. “The #Cowboys are shopping Trevon Diggs and plan to trade or release him by March 17th.” Diggs was mentioned by “@SlickRickScoops” on X, which may not sound like an authentic source, but Rick has a history of actually getting things right. However, this summer, most of his credibility went out the window when he mentioned that Brandon Aiyuk to the Steelers was a “done deal.”

However, trading Diggs is going to be nearly impossible. Cutting him makes just as little sense as well. Getting the Trevon Diggs contract off the books saves about nine million dollars for the Cowboys; however, letting a player of Trevon Diggs caliber go would be a massive mistake. In 2022, Trevon Diggs was one of the best cornerbacks in football, and this was the year after he broke Everson Walls’s record for most interceptions in a season in Cowboys franchise history. When Trevon Diggs plays, he’s still a great corner, and even with a down year in 2024 riddled with slightly above-average play and injuries, this is not a player that Dallas can afford to cut.

Trading Trevon Diggs makes no sense either because who wants to give up assets for a player who might not even be ready when the season comes around? Trevon Diggs’s knee, in the nicest way possible, is fried. He hasn’t been the same since tearing his Achilles before week three in 2023. Who would want to make that deal, and what would Dallas get for Diggs?
