Cowboys Star Cornerback Sidelined After Household Accident

On October 17, 2025, the Dallas Cowboys received some troubling news ahead of their upcoming game against the Washington Commanders. Cornerback Trevon Diggs, a key player in the Cowboys' defense, will be sidelined for Sunday's matchup after sustaining a concussion in an accident at his home.

According to Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer, Diggs reported to the team's facility on Friday with concussion symptoms following the incident that occurred the previous night. The team's medical staff immediately placed Diggs in the concussion protocol, ruling him out for the game against the Commanders.

Schottenheimer did not provide any further details on the nature of the accident, but he emphasized that the team's primary concern is Diggs' well-being. "It's part of the business. It's unfortunate," the coach said. "This is the NFL. If you're unsure what's going to happen, just wait because something is going to happen. You deal with it. The biggest thing is just the concern for Trevon and (is) he OK. And it seems like he is."
