Can Dan Quinn Resurrect Trevon Diggs' Career?
6 Apr
Summary
- Diggs' career faltered after a lucrative contract extension due to injuries and performance.
- The Cowboys released Diggs, who then had a brief, unimpressive stint with the Packers.
- Washington Commanders are considered a potential landing spot for Diggs.
Trevon Diggs, once poised for superstardom with the Dallas Cowboys after securing a $97 million extension, has faced a significant career downturn. Injuries and a loss of form plagued his subsequent seasons, leading to his release by the Cowboys late last season.
He subsequently joined the Green Bay Packers, appearing in just two games, including a limited role in the playoffs, before being released this offseason. As one of the top remaining free agents, Diggs is expected to sign with a team.
FanSided predicts a surprising move to the rival Washington Commanders, citing the connection with defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, who coached Diggs in Dallas. The Commanders, who had the NFL's 27th-ranked scoring defense last season, are seeking to improve their secondary and see Diggs as a potential low-risk, minimum-salary addition.
Despite uncertainty, Diggs could potentially rediscover his Pro Bowl form under Quinn's guidance, similar to his earlier career success. Washington has already added other defensive backs but seeks more depth and competition.
