The defensive struggles for the Dallas Cowboys have been well-documented in 2025, and defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus’ unit was dealt another blow earlier this week. All-Pro cornerback Trevon Diggs was suddenly ruled out for Dallas' crucial Week 7 matchup against the Washington Commanders after suffering a concussion in a home “accident.”
Trevon Diggs is out with no timeline for return.
There has been no timeline given for his return, and the Cowboys’ front office has been tight-lipped regarding the situation, with Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones declining to comment when asked earlier this week, according to Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News.
Stephen Jones said he had no comment on Trevon Diggs missing Sunday’s game.

Diggs, a two-time Pro Bowler, has been a key piece of the Dallas defense since he was a second-round pick out of Alabama in 2020. His breakout season came in 2021, when he led the NFL in interceptions (11) on his way to Pro Bowl and First-Team All-Pro honors. The 27-year-old is in the third year of a five-year, $97 million extension, which he signed in 2023.
