The Green Bay Packers have claimed Trevon Diggs a day after the Dallas Cowboys waived the 2021 All-Pro cornerback.

The Packers picked up cornerback Trevon Diggs, who was waived by the Cowboys on Tuesday, to bolster their playoff outlook.

RT Josh Conerly Jr. had a rough day in pass protection, allowing 1 sack and 1 QB hurry, for a 7.1% Pressure Rate. That figure is a little high for an OT, but not unusual for a rookie. Conerly’s 58.3 run blocking grade was below his 64.6 season grade.

He simply wanted to spend Christmas with his family. On Tuesday, NFL insider Jordan Shultz provided some context surrounding Diggs’s release — and it doesn’t reflect well on Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

The New York Giants will conclude their season on Sunday when they host their division rival, the Dallas Cowboys, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Both teams are playing their final game of the season, having been eliminated from postseason contention.

Trevon Diggs has said his goodbye to Cowboys fans, but the saga isn't over. Rumors about what he was really doing in D.C. are now part of the story.

Dallas brining back Clowney makes sense for one more reason. Outside of Ezeiruaku and veteran James Houston, the Cowboys won’t have any other edge rushers under contract in 2026. Of course, they will look to add one in free agency and certainly the NFL draft, but Dallas needs bodies off the edge, and Clowney is one they can retain for cheap.

The Dallas Cowboys phased one defender out of the lineup on Christmas, a decision he leaves up to the coaching staff.
