The Dallas Cowboys will be without cornerback Trevon Diggs on Sunday against the Washington Commanders after an accident at his home Thursday put him in the concussion protocol.
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer did not know the specifics of what happened, but Diggs was checked out by the team doctors on Friday.
“This is the NFL and if you’re unsure what’s going to happen just wait because something is going to happen,” Schottenheimer said. “And you deal with it, and you don’t lose sleep over it. The biggest thing is just the concern for Trevon that he’s OK. But seems like he is.”
Diggs has started every game after spending training camp on the physically unable to perform list following January surgery on his left knee. He has dealt with a right knee injury in recent weeks. He has been credited with 20 tackles, 1 tackle for loss and 2 pass deflections.
