Cowboys Keep Trevon Diggs on IR as Schottenheimer Puts Emphasis on Consistency

The cornerback stays in his 21-day evaluation window with coaches emphasizing non-medical readiness.

Overview

  • Brian Schottenheimer said Diggs remains in a ramp-up period and must “show us he’s ready to do everything the right way.”
  • Schottenheimer clarified the standard includes meetings, practice habits, daily availability and overall consistency, not only health.
  • Diggs returned to limited practice after Dallas opened his 21-day window on Nov. 30 but was not activated for Week 14.
  • The Cowboys placed Diggs on injured reserve on Oct. 26 for a right knee issue following a reported at-home concussion before Week 7.
  • Commentators have speculated Dallas could consider an offseason release to save roughly $18 million, a notion not confirmed by the team.
