Jerry on Diggs - Diggs isn't healthy enough to be out there for us. Period

Tell him to come to the game and lie on a bench or stretcher, which will get him what he wants.
 
The Diggs situation is a no-win situation. Not unlike what happened in the Parsons affair at the end.

No one can win here.

The best course of action for Jerry is to say nothings.

"Trevon Diggs is a great player. There is a group of individuals who all play a role in determining who makes the gameday roster and who doesn't. It is a delicate balance of tests, challenges and insights that allows for a gameday decision to be made. We all look forward to the time that fans can see Trevon on the field again."
 

I fully expect Diggs to be cut, sign elsewhere with a team that plays more man defense and play at a high level again. Maybe I'm wrong and the knee injuries will be too much to overcome, but I don't think this player is through yet. Won't be surprised at all if Washington signs him. Chicago might be another destination because of Al Harris.
 
I betcha Tre would say the same thing if asked today about playing in meaningless games the last 3 weeks. Lol...no way he wants to be taken off IR for this defensive clown show put on by Eberflus.

If he gets any kind of injury, his $$$ is guaranteed.

On the market he is going to lose $$$.

No player wants to get injured before reaching free agency. He won't make the same money at all, you are correct. But, he will still get some team to bet on him.

I think Dallas is doing the right thing.

We will release you and let you be fully healthy so you can get max $$$ ...elsewhere

Right thing for both sides.

This split began in the offseason of 2025. So...
 
Yup. He's another prima Donna. Trevon the delicate Lilly of the Valley. His feelings are hurt.
Being a manager of any type is being able to manage people. Jerry, like some fans, hinks it's 1989 still and they own the players and can treat them however they want to. Modern athletes don't play that game. Jerry is a dynasaur.
 
Eh, he's still getting paid, so I doubt the PA will care too much.
If the Cowboys suspended him for some BS reason, sure, they would step in.

But yea, he's good as gone as soon as the season is over. First cut for the 2026 season.
Or will he keep him dangling?
 
I know they're not stupid enough to accept it, but offer him to the Packers for a 7th. IF they're dumb enough to agree, it sabotages their secondary. Him plus Parsons being reunited would be a great way to instill poison in their locker room
 
How do we know Diggs is healthy enough First of all he came into the season with a knee injury that's had multiple issues before and he wasn't ready he says his rehab was good he tried Then he had another set back with another knee then he has a fake possible concussion or was it real did he fall down the steps did he have other injuries The fact is he's not going to be able to win any kind of NFLPA injury grievance because he got hurt off the job and if the Cowboys wanted to they don't have to pay him for an NFI that be a non football injury that landed him on IR and they should have handled it better but they did not throw him under a bus..

Yes this goes beyond his injuries but those types of injuries add up look what happened to Gallup never came back right every time he tried he just couldn't putting this guy on the shelf the rest of the year is best for his career not just the Cowboys needing to get rid of him because I if he'd have played the last four games and did decent came out of it healthy he would have more trade value why would Jerry not do that if he thought it was possible they're the only ones that know the truth along with Diggs and he could lie all the all the way he wants about how he's ready to play They're the ones that watch him run around full speed and then walk around the complex at the start in the weight room they can see if he's limping or not very good game shape this is all inner organizational stuff that none of us will ever know the truth.

You feel like taking sides you can but the fact is this dude's been beat up to A point where I believe he may not be 100 percent it's all they have to claim there's no reason for him to play when there's nothing to play for but it would have been the Cowboys and his benefit if he would have played at least three games four games showed he can play even halfway decent he would have had some trade value I don't know if he has trade value now....

Not that's not always true i'm sure Jerry's got lawyers that'll say NFI that's non football injury done at home that he claims on his own could have been more than the concussion how do you know he didn't fall down the stairs roll down the stairs and have multiple injuries cowboys easily could win something like that because it's NFI it happened outside of the football field and outside of the complex therefore there's a big Gray area here...

I get what you're saying if he gets an injury if they play him but right now as it stands he can't file a grievance because the Cowboys just can claim his biggest injuries came at home and pull an NFI on him and not even pay him the rest of his salary the rest of the year..

oh it could get ugly....
 
Add up the games Diggs has played the past three years and it doesn't even add up to one season's worth of games.

He has no grievance. He's been stealing money from this team to stand on the sidelines in a hoodie every week and then play like a bum on the rare occaision he does suit up.
Agreed, but I still think he will file a grievance.
 
Can we get GB to make a play for him, a third would be great but doubtful. He and Parsons can go over rehab and old war story’s.
