Overview

  • The Cowboys placed Trevon Diggs, DeMarvion Overshown and Josh Butler on the Physically Unable to Perform list and rookie Shavon Revel on the Non-Football Injury list.
  • Diggs, recovering from a January chondral tissue graft, had $500,000 docked from his 2025 salary after failing to complete 84% of team-mandated offseason workouts.
  • Jerry and Stephen Jones emphasized that the reduction was contractually stipulated and criticized Diggs’s choice to rehab away from the team as a lapse in leadership.
  • Overshown, who underwent repair of three knee ligaments in December, is not expected to be ready for Week 1 and may miss the entire season, while Butler and Revel also face uncertain recovery timelines.
  • With multiple starters sidelined, new defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus confronts pressing concerns about roster depth and season readiness.
