Reactions to Trevon Diggs news

Several people on social media reacted to the news of Diggs being left out of the Sunday game and the apparent ‘souring’ of the relationship with the organization.

“Even if the relationship isn’t great why wouldn’t you put him in the field in a position where you cly need an upgrade. This is wild. I knew this would probably be his last season with the cowboys but didn’t think it would end like this,” a fan said.

Another remarked, “they genuinely hate him cause everything he’s said about the defense has been right.” Yet another fan commented, “Ok good trade em for a safety this offseason and get a db in the draft ez as that.”
