A second consecutive dominant individual season from Seattle Seahawks safety Quandre Diggs ended in disappointing and painful fashion in Week 18 on Sunday. The 28-year-old's offseason began this week, though, and Wednesday was a key day in what will be a lengthy recovery.
Several #Seahawks teammates requested to stay behind in Arizona with Diggs following the game, a display of the kind of leader he is and how tight Seattle’s locker room is -- even after a tough season. https://t.co/73PtxfGvLl

Diggs suffered the injury during the Seahawks' 38-30 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 18, as Seattle concluded the regular season 7-10 and as the only NFC West team not to make the playoffs. The former sixth-round pick played in every contest this season for the second straight year and fifth time in seven tries to begin his career.
The 2021 campaign saw Diggs set a new career-high in tackles (94), while tying his best mark in interceptions with five. Diggs also recorded seven passes defensed during the season.
The seventh-year pro led the Seahawks in interceptions and was third in both passes defended and tackles.
