Cowboys Clear Trevon Diggs, Tyler Guyton for Week 1 vs. Eagles

Coaches plan to limit Trevon Diggs’ snaps, with less flexibility at left tackle for Tyler Guyton.

Overview

  • Both players carry no injury designation and are available for Thursday’s opener in Philadelphia, according to ESPN.
  • Diggs returned from a January chondral knee graft after starting camp on PUP, was activated Aug. 24, and logged roughly two weeks of practice.
  • Team officials reduced Diggs’ base salary by $500,000 after he rehabbed in South Florida and did not meet an offseason participation threshold.
  • Coaches may deploy Diggs as a third corner in passing situations while monitoring his workload, a plan not easily replicated for Guyton’s position.
  • Guyton’s camp knee injury was diagnosed as a broken bone and ligament sprain after initial ACL fears, and thin depth behind both starters (Nate Thomas at LT, CJ Goodwin at CB) raises risk as Dallas adjusts following the Micah Parsons trade.
