The Cowboys defense took a massive hit during "Thursday Night Football" when star DB Trevon Diggs exited the field with an apparent leg injury.
Early in the fourth quarter of a primetime divisional matchup against the Giants, Diggs went down in apparent pain after attempting to make a play on Giants RB Devin Singletary. After he was tended to on the field, Diggs was taken to the locker room by Cowboys training staff.
Diggs returned to the field in 2024 after missing the final 15 games of the 2023 season with a torn ACL suffered in practice.
