Diggs will undergo surgery this week to repair a knee cartilage injury and his recovery could take up to eight months, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Diggs' initial timeline could have him missing most of training camp, and possibly the start of next season, if he suffers any setbacks. The 26-year-old finished his season with 42 combined tackles and 11 passes defended, including two interceptions in 11 games.
Diggs (knee) is expected to undergo surgery and will miss the remainder of the 2024 campaign, per The Dallas Morning News. Prior to this news, Diggs had already been ruled out for Sunday's clash against Carolina, which will mark his third absence in four weeks. He's been a mainstay on Dallas' injury report his season having also dealt with foot, ankle, calf and groin issues throughout the campaign. Diggs' season comes to a sudden end after just 11 games, during which he tallied 42 tackles and 11 pass defenses (including two interceptions). The 26-year-old cornerback missed the Cowboys' final 15 regular-season games last year due to a torn ACL after signing a five-year contract extension in July of 2023.
Diggs (knee) won't play in Sunday's Week 15 contest against Carolina, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Diggs was deemed questionable to face the Panthers on Dallas' injury report Friday, but he's since been ruled out. The veteran cornerback will thus miss his third game in four weeks -- Diggs was able to suit up Monday against Cincinnati and played all of the Cowboys' defensive snaps, but he apparently isn't past his knee issue. Andrew Booth and/or Amani Oruwariye could be asked to step up in Diggs' stead Sunday.
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.
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.
Diggs (knee/groin) is active against the Bengals for Monday Night Football, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Diggs will return to game action for the first time since Week 11 after missing a pair of contests due to groin and knee injuries. His ability to suit up Monday comes at a good time, as Josh Butler -- who had been filling in as a starting cornerback -- was placed on injured reserve Monday due to a torn ACL. Diggs will face a tough challenge in his first game back as he tries to slow down Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and a Bengals air attack helmed by Joe Burrow.
Diggs (knee) was a limited participant in Saturday's practice and is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Diggs has missed the Cowboys' last two games due to knee and groin injuries. He was limited in practice all week, which earned him the questionable tag heading into Monday night's game. In the 10 regular-season games prior to his injury, Diggs logged 37 tackles (30 solo) and eight pass defenses (including two interceptions). If Diggs is unable to play, C.J. Goodwin would be slated to serve as the Cowboys' second starting outside corner opposite DaRon Bland.
Diggs (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Diggs has been sidelined for the Cowboys' last two games due to knee and groin injuries. He appears to be over the groin issue, but his knee limited in Thursday's practice. Diggs will have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals.
Head coach Mike McCarthy said Friday that the extra rest following the Cowboys' Thanksgiving game win the Giants on Thursday could help Diggs (groin) be available for Week 14 against the Bengals on Monday, Dec. 9, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Diggs has missed the Cowboys' last two games due to a groin injury. His chances to return for Week 14 would significantly increase if he's able to log some full practices in the lead up to that game. In the 10 regular-season games prior to his injury, Diggs logged 37 tackles (30 solo) and eight pass defenses (including two interceptions).
