Cowboys' Trevon Diggs Out for Season

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2024 season due to a knee injury that requires surgery. This injury, which is related to cartilage damage, marks his second consecutive season-ending injury, following an ACL tear last year. Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones indicated that Diggs will face an extensive recovery period of approximately eight months, likely impacting his availability for next season's training camp. Head coach Mike McCarthy expressed concern over Diggs' repeated injuries, noting the significant impact on the team's defensive capabilities. The Cowboys, currently with a 5-8 record, are facing challenges with multiple key players on injured reserve, severely affecting their playoff prospects. The team will need to reassess its strategy in the offseason as it looks to recover from a difficult season.
