Trevon Diggs Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (ankle) will be a game-time decision in Week 6 against the New England Patriots, while left tackle Tyron Smith (neck) had a "favorable" MRI exam on Thursday. Diggs is the top-scoring fantasy IDP defensive back with six interceptions in the first five games, but fantasy managers in IDP leagues will have a decision to make with Dallas' game on the late slate of games this Sunday. If Diggs sits out, it will be good news for Patriots receiver Jakobi Meyers. Smith could also be a game-time decision, but the good news is his injury doesn't appear to be a long-term issue.

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (ankle) will be limited in practice on Thursday, but head coach Mike McCarthy said the situation is "not of high concern." Free safety Damontae Kazee (hip) also reported hip tightness on Monday, and the issue flared up at the beginning of practice on Wednesday. He will work with the rehab group on Thursday. Diggs should be fine for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, and he should be in all starting lineups in IDP formats, as he enters the week as the No. 1 fantasy defensive back with 16 tackles, 10 passes defensed and a whopping six interceptions through just five games. Dallas' defense will also be a top defensive unit for fantasy managers while going up against a shaky offensive line and a rookie quarterback.

Dallas Cowboys impressive rookie cornerback Trevon Diggs (foot) suffered a fractured bone in his foot in the Week 9 loss to the Steelers and will be out four to six weeks, according to sources. Based on the timing, Diggs could wind up missing the rest of the season, but he should make a full recovery for the 2021 season. The 22-year-old from Alabama has really stepped up in Dallas' secondary, recording 48 tackles (41 solo), two interceptions, 10 passes defensed, one forced fumble and one sack in the first nine games of his career. The Cowboys Defense will really miss him. They are on bye in Week 10, but their defense will once again be one to avoid in Week 11 against the Vikings.
