- Trevon Diggs plans to sign a one-year contract with the Seattle Seahawks, offering him a fresh start after a tumultuous end to his Dallas tenure.
- Diggs said he feels fully healthy and described this as his first offseason without rehabilitation, adding that he wants to prove he remains the best cornerback.
- Diggs appeared in only 22 games over the past three seasons, missing time after tearing his left ACL in 2023 and suffering subsequent injuries to both knees.
- Diggs said former teammates Josh Jobe and DeMarcus Lawrence told him he would be a great fit with Seattle, where he has several prior Cowboys and Alabama connections.
- Diggs visited the Detroit Lions earlier this month and tried out for Seattle on Tuesday, but said he canceled other visits because the Seahawks felt like home.
- The Dallas Cowboys enforced a $500,000 base-salary de-escalator in 2025 after Diggs missed 84% of the voluntary offseason program and chose to rehabilitate in South Florida.
Why it matters: Seattle gains an immediate cornerback option while Terrion Arnold cannot practice or play under the exempt list. Diggs says he is fully healthy after 22 games over three seasons and ACL and knee injuries; Dallas enforced a $500,000 2025 base-salary reduction after he missed 84% of voluntary offseason work to rehabilitate in South Florida.
