'Its Very Frustrating': Trevon Diggs Didn’t Hold Back on Cowboys’ Lack of Identity

Despite the high expectations for the team’s defense, Dallas is currently ranked last in the league, which is a stark contrast to previous seasons of defensive prowess. The cornerback’s remarks come at a critical juncture for the team, as they face tough opponents in the upcoming weeks.

Dallas must reassess its approach to regain their competitive edge. Diggs has previously called for a shift towards more man-to-man coverage, indicating that the current zone-heavy scheme may not be working effectively for the players.

Trevon Diggs Takes Shot at Dallas Cowboys and Their Lack of Identity

Diggs blasted his own team for their lack of identity so far this season. This can be seen in a tweet posted by Calvin Watkins on X.

“Trevon Diggs to @SportsDayDFW “Yeah its very frustrating. It’s all these points (given up), the receivers are running wide open down the field, too many busted coverages. It’s a lot. I feel like we’re all over the place and we really don’t have no identity.”

As the season progresses, the pressure mounts on both the players and coaching staff to turn around the defense. With Diggs publicly expressing his concerns, it raises questions about team morale and the effectiveness of the coaching strategies in place. The Cowboys need to find a resolution quickly, or they risk falling further behind in a competitive division.

Moving forward, how Dallas responds to this internal critique will significantly impact its season. If the franchise can address these issues and solidify its defensive identity, the team may still salvage its playoff hopes. However, without immediate changes, the path ahead looks increasingly challenging for a team that once boasted one of the league’s strongest defenses.
