Overview

  • Trevon Diggs underwent a chondral tissue graft in January and has publicly set a return by Week 1 of the regular season as his rehabilitation goal.
  • DeMarvion Overshown’s December surgery repaired tears to his ACL, MCL and PCL, leaving his availability for the entire 2025 season uncertain.
  • Third-round pick Josh Butler joins the active/PUP list as he recovers from a torn ACL, while rookie cornerback Shavon Revel starts camp on the non-football injury list after his own ACL tear.
  • The Cowboys’ placement of four key defensive players on PUP and NFI underscores thin depth in their secondary heading into training camp.
  • Trevon Diggs was docked $500,000 of his 2025 salary for missing voluntary offseason activities, illustrating the team’s contractual accountability measures.
