Diggs to Commanders: Low Risk, High Reward

On April 6, Trevon Diggs, the former Dallas Cowboys cornerback who signed a $97 million deal, has had a rough ride lately.

He burst onto the scene as a star early on, but injuries and poor play tanked his career.

Dallas cut him last season, and he barely played for the Green Bay Packers before they let him go this off season.

Now free agency buzz points to Diggs landing with the Washington commanders, a direct NFC East rival to his old team.

Analysts see it as a real possibility, despite the history.

The connection runs deep with Dan Quinn, who coached Diggs and Dallas and now has Washington's defense.

Diggs thrived under Quinn before, earning two Pro Bowl nods.

Washington's defense ranked 27th in scoring last year, struggling against both the run and pass.

They've added some corners like Amrk Robertson and Akella Witherspoon, but they need more depth and competition.

It's a low risk move for the commanders, since Diggs would come cheap on a minimum deal, giving him a shot to rebound in a familiar scheme while bolstering their secondary.
