Diggs recorded 59 tackles (50 solo) and three interceptions on 14 passes defended, plus a forced fumble, over 17 regular-season games in 2022.
The third-year cornerback wasn't able to repeat his turnover magic from the year before, when he turned 21 passes defended into an incredible 11 INTs, but Diggs also allowed 349 fewer passing yards and 2.6 fewer yards per attempt in coverage. With one more year remaining on his rookie contract, the Cowboys may look to lock up their No. 1 corner with an extension this offseason, but if not he'll be playing in 2023 for a free-agent payday the following spring.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Looks on track to play
Rotowire
Diggs (illness), who is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Eagles, is trending toward playing, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Diggs missed the Cowboys' final practice of the week Thursday due to the illness, but he's apparently feeling healthier as Saturday's 4:25 p.m. kickoff approaches. Assuming Diggs avoids the Cowboys' inactive list, he should be able to fill his usual role as Dallas' No. 1 cornerback and could be tasked with trying to slow down Eagles standout receiver A.J. Brown for most of the day.
Diggs (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Diggs popped up on the injury report and failed to practice Thursday with an apparent illness, ultimately leaving his Week 16 availability versus Philadelphia in jeopardy. Though a divisional matchup at home late in the season seems like an occasion that Diggs would do everything in his power not to miss, Kelvin Joseph and Nahshon Wright would nonetheless be in line for additional secondary snaps behind starter DaRon Bland should last year's interception leader ultimately be sidelined Saturday.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Active in Week 13
Rotowire
Diggs (illness) is listed as active Sunday versus the Colts.
Diggs was able to log just one limited practice (Friday) during Week 13 prep due to an illness. However, coach Mike McCarthy relayed to Jon Machota of The Athletic on Friday that he expected Diggs to be available Sunday, which has come to pass. The shut-down corner thus will look to build upon the 42 tackles and three interceptions that he's compiled through 11 games this season.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Six solo tackles in win
Rotowire
Diggs notched six solo tackles during Sunday's 22-10 win over the Rams.
Diggs set a season high with six tackles and now has 15 stops, nine pass defenses and two interceptions across five games. The 2020 second-round pick has blossomed into one of the best cornerbacks in the league, but he's extremely reliant on his ball-hawking skills both in terms of his production on the field and in fantasy.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Secures 11th interception
Rotowire
Diggs had two solo tackles and an interception during Sunday's 56-14 win over Washington.

Cowboys' Trevon Diggs: Reaches double-digit picks
Rotowire
Diggs recorded four tackles (three solo) and two passes defended, including his 10th interception of the season, in Sunday's win over the Giants.
He was mostly matched up against Kenny Golladay, and Diggs helped limit the Giants' No. 1 wideout to only three catches on seven targets. His pick, the third of the day for the Dallas defense, came in the end zone midway through the fourth quarter and squashed New York's last gasp at a comeback. Diggs not only leads the NFL in INTs, three ahead of the Patriots' J.C. Jackson, he's one away from tying the Cowboys' franchise record for a season of 11, set in 1981 by Everson Walls.

Rotowire
Diggs (ankle) is a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
It was reported Thursday that Diggs is trending in the right direction for Week 6, but it looks like a final word on the cornerback's status will come down to the wire.

Rotowire
Diggs didn't participate at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury.

It's unclear if Diggs will be able to return to practice Thursday or Friday, which would put him on track to play Sunday in New England.
