Trevon Diggs Faces $500K Pay Cut for Missing Cowboys Offseason Workouts

A contractual de-escalator for missed offseason participation threatens to slash half a million dollars from his 2025 pay

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (7) has been away from the facility during the team's OTA period while rehabbing his injured knee.

Overview

  • Trevon Diggs will forfeit $500,000 of his 2025 base salary if he fails to participate in at least 84.375% of the Cowboys’ offseason program.
  • He has elected to rehab his surgically repaired left knee in Miami instead of training under team staff at The Star in Frisco, Texas.
  • Diggs’ contract mandates that any supervised rehabilitation by the club’s head trainer counts toward the completion requirement.
  • Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer and executive vice president Stephen Jones have described his rehab progress as positive and expect him at the June 10-12 mandatory minicamp.
  • Diggs is projected to begin training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, risking absence for the first four regular-season games and adding to the team’s cornerback depth concerns.
