Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs passed his physical and has been activated from the physically unable to perform list, the team announced Sunday.
Diggs was placed on the PUP list in July at the start of training camp in Oxnard, Calif. He missed the final six games of the 2024 season with a left knee injury, and that came after he sustained a torn ACL in practice two games into the 2023 campaign.
“I’d be remiss if I didn’t talk about how hard Trevon’s been working,” Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said on Saturday. “He’s doing an incredible job with (trainer Britt Brown). These things don’t happen if he’s not putting in the time and the effort to do the stuff that he’s been doing. Really proud of him.”
It’s not immediately known whether Diggs will play in the Cowboys’ season opener at the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 4.
Diggs, 26, made 11 starts in 2024 and recorded two interceptions and 42 tackles before being shut down.
In 58 career games (57 starts) since Dallas drafted Diggs in the second round in 2020, he has recorded 20 interceptions, 63 pass deflections, 215 tackles, one sack and two forced fumbles. He is a two-time Pro Bowler and was named first-team All-Pro in 2021, when he led the league with 11 interceptions and returned two of them for touchdowns.
