Entering the 2024 NFL season, there were questions about how Dallas Cowboys All-Pro cornerback Trevon Diggs would bounce back after missing the majority of last season with a torn ACL.

Diggs began training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, but after a week returned to the field.

Now, with the regular season underway, Diggs is on a mission to show is still among the NFL's elite defensive backs. He did just that during Thursday night's win over the New York Giants.

While Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers balled out with 12 catches for 115 yards, it was not at Diggs' expense.

In fact, Diggs locked Nabers down when he was matched up against the rookie sensation.

Diggs allowed only two catches for 16 yards on five targets. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had a 19.2 passer rating when targeting a Diggs-covered Nabers.
