Trevon Diggs' Mysterious Injury: Cowboys CB's Uncertain Return
18 Nov
Summary
- Trevon Diggs placed on IR due to concussion and knee injury
- Exact details of home accident leading to concussion unknown
- Optimism for Diggs' return by Week 13, but timeline uncertain
As of November 18, 2025, Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs has been out of action since Week 6 due to a concussion and knee injury. Diggs was placed on injured reserve on October 25, just one day before the team's Week 8 game against the Denver Broncos.
The exact details surrounding Diggs' concussion remain a mystery. The Cowboys reported that Diggs suffered the head injury in an accident at his home, but the specifics have not been disclosed. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer stated that Diggs experienced concussion symptoms the following morning and was immediately placed in the league's concussion protocol.
In addition to the concussion, Diggs is also dealing with a knee injury, though it is not the same knee he has had issues with in the past. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones acknowledged that Diggs has "a handful of challenges" related to his physical condition.
Despite the uncertainty, there is optimism that Diggs could return to the field as early as Week 13 when the Cowboys face the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving. Diggs has been spotted working on the side during practice, indicating he is making progress in his recovery. However, the team has not provided a definitive timeline for his return.
Initially, there was some speculation that Diggs could potentially miss the rest of the season and might even be done with the Cowboys, as he is a clear candidate to be traded or released next offseason. But Jones has dismissed those concerns, stating he does not see that happening "at all."
