Cowboys Clear Trevon Diggs, Tyler Guyton to Play in Week 1 vs. Eagles

Dallas plans a managed workload for Diggs to balance his knee recovery with greater defensive demands after the Parsons trade.

Overview

  • ESPN reports both starters carry no injury designation for Thursday’s opener in Philadelphia and are available to play.
  • Coaches are prepared to monitor Diggs’ snaps, potentially using him as a passing‑downs corner with DaRon Bland moving inside.
  • Diggs was activated off PUP on Aug. 24 after off‑site rehab, then practiced with the first team and scout team to build conditioning.
  • Guyton’s July knee scare was later diagnosed as a bone fracture rather than an ACL tear, and he has worked back with first‑team reps.
  • Dallas’ depth remains thin if either player is limited, with Nate Thomas lined up as the fallback at left tackle and CJ Goodwin behind Diggs at corner, a concern heightened by the Parsons trade.
