Trevon Diggs had surgery Thursday on his left knee

I hope he’s aggressive in treatment, probably won’t see him until 2026.

Did you read the text?

Nope.

I suspected micro surgery back then

Let him go to Houston

Diggs is bad, He should have had this surgery a month or more ago. My son bought me a Diggs jersey at the end of his rookie season. Wish I could burn it. Guy is worthless as a player now.

Why is he just now having surgery? Hasn't he been on IR for almost 2 months?

They will tell you that " the inflammation had to go down" before operating, however it seems that this long term inflammation seems to happen to Cowboys players more than the rest of the NFL teams.

Getting surgery at this point all but guarantees him the latest possible return while he would otherwise be at work

He gets paid either way so for some there's no rush to get back while training camp or the season is going on.......he'll be home playing video games and watching " Martin" while his teammates are working at the facility

My wife has had this done. When it works it’s way more effective than microfracture surgery bc it’s actual cartilage instead of fibro-cartilage. The success rate isn’t super high though. And recovery is crazy long.

If not sooner in cowboy speak means mid November

What this dude really needs is a dang vasectomy. Knocking up IG models aint it.

I hope the surgery is a success- he needs his quickness to avoid opposing running backs.

Here's Diggs, post surgery, getting ready for hydro-therapy:

Probably be the direction they go after next season… doubt it’s even remotely possible before then!

We have an out this offseason. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/47646/trevon-diggs

He's not going to be 100% next season so what's the point of keeping him? Heck, he wasn't worth his contract this season when he was healthy.

12 some odd million ain’t much of an out especially when you consider we’re already eating 8.7 for Gallup, almost certainly 7.5 for Lawrence and a possible 26 for Martin. In fact, it would be bordering on just dumb in order to save a measly 2m in the grand scheme of things!

if he tackles treatment like he tackles opposing WR's he may be back by 2030

Well, it's that or we can pay him 14M for nothing next year. I'll take the savings.

Why did he wait almost a month to have surgery?

Right!
And yet fans get uppity when players won’t sign early and take lower contracts!
