The Dallas Cowboys played without star cornerback Trevon Diggs, days after he was abruptly scratched from action this week against the Washington Commanders.<\/p>\n

Team officials confirmed that Diggs, 27, suffered a concussion at home earlier in the week, sidelining the All-Pro cornerback for Sunday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

No additional details were provided about Diggs\u2019 injury, adding an element of mystery to the $97 million player\u2019s sudden disappearance.<\/p>\n

Since entering the league, Diggs has been a cornerstone of Dallas\u2019 defense, earning multiple Pro Bowl selections and building a reputation as a ballhawk.<\/p>\n

Even without him, Dallas controlled the Commanders, 44-22.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Questions still lingered about how and when the injury occurred. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones addressed Diggs\u2019 absence following the incident, which reportedly took place Thursday night, including whether the star cornerback might return soon.<\/p>\n

“The combination of the injury and how it impacted\u2026 regarding a concussion issue, I’m not so sure that I know the details of how that happened,” Jones said.<\/p>\n

“Not the way I would if there had been an injury on the field. We normally would see that on TV, see how an injury happens, and in this particular case, it was unrecorded.”<\/p>\n

Jones shared that he expects Diggs to clear protocols and possibly return soon.<\/p>\n

“Oh he said what happened,” Jones added. “But again, and I’m not saying that didn’t happen, but a lot of times you’re not the best viewer of what happened to you.”<\/p>\n

When asked if he knew the details of Diggs’ incident, Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer responded, “No, not yet.”<\/p>\n

“Yeah, I\u2019m a Trevon fan,” Schottenheimer added. “I\u2019m excited to get him back and hopefully it won\u2019t be too long.”<\/p>\n

Despite reassurances from Jones and Schottenheimer, the circumstances surrounding Diggs\u2019 concussion remain unclear.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For now, the mystery lingers. Only time will tell whether Diggs or the Cowboys will ever reveal exactly what happened behind closed doors.<\/p>\n
