Head coach Brian Schottenheimer discussed Diggs’s condition on Saturday (August 23), talking about how the cornerback could return to the practice field as early as this week. “I’d be remiss if I didn’t talk about how hard Trevon’s been working,” he said, as reported by the official Cowboys website. Despite this bringing Diggs a step closer to returning, it still leaves room for him to miss out on the team’s regular-season opener. What’s clear as of now is that Diggs won’t be opening the season on the PUP list since that would put him out for the first four weeks, a risk that the Cowboys would not be willing to take given the lack of depth in their roster over the past season’s injuries.
