Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: In doubt for start of season
Rotowire
Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said last week that there's a "good chance" Diggs (knee) "may not be available" come Week 1, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Diggs had surgery in late January to address a cartilage injury to the same left knee in which he suffered an ACL tear in Sept. 2023. He returned from the ACL surgery to play 11 games last season, including each of the Cowboys' first 10 games, fighting through foot, ankle and calf injuries before a groin injury finally sidelined him. He returned after missing two weeks, only to suffer the season-ending knee cartilage injury during his first game back. He's now facing a lengthy rehab from a surgery that took place seven and a half months before Week 1.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Undergoes procedure on knee
Rotowire
Diggs underwent surgery on his left knee Sunday, and his recovery timeline could keep him out for the beginning of training camp in July, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Diggs was placed on injured reserve Dec. 21 due to a left knee injury. He was slated to undergo surgery in late December, but Archer relays that the delay had to due with the growing of the graft to ensure best results from a procedure that's considered the latest improvement on traditional microfracture surgery. Regardless, Diggs has a lengthy recovery timeline ahead of him, and it appears that he will not be at full health for the start of training camp. The 2020 second-round pick finished the 2024 regular season with 42 tackles (35 solo) and 11 pass defenses (including two interceptions) across 11 games.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Set for season-ending surgery
Rotowire
Diggs is expected to undergo surgery on his left knee will miss the remainder of the 2024 campaign, David Moore of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Diggs had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against Carolina, which will mark his third absence in four weeks. He's been a mainstay on Dallas' injury report all season, having also dealt with foot, ankle, calf and groin issues throughout the campaign. With surgery now on tap, Diggs' season comes to a sudden end after just 11 games, during which he tallied 42 tackles and two interceptions. The 26-year-old cornerback was limited to just two games in 2023 after suffering a torn ACL in the same knee, though his latest injury is considered unrelated and instead involves damage to the cartilage at the end of his bones in his joint, per Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Diggs is expected to face an eight-month recovery timeline from surgery, so while he'll likely remain out for offseason workouts in the spring, he could be cleared in advance of training camp in late July.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Questionable for Week 15
Rotowire
Diggs (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.
The Alabama product played through his knee injury in Dallas' Week 14 loss to the Bengals, recording five total tackles and three passes defended over 65 defensive snaps. He practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday and Thursday but downgraded to an estimated DNP on Friday, which suggests he's trending in the wrong direction ahead of Week 15. If Diggs is able to suit up Sunday, he'll serve as one of Dallas' starting outside cornerbacks.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Limited to begin practice week
Rotowire
Diggs (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice walkthrough, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Diggs returned from a two-game absence Monday versus Cincinnati and played every one of Dallas' defensive snaps, finishing with five tackles and three pass defenses. His designation of limited Wednesday may simply reflect that he's not 100 percent recovered from the knee issue. Diggs' practice participation the rest of the week should help clarify whether he's in any danger of missing Sunday's contest against Carolina.
