Trevon Diggs currently finds himself on waivers after the Dallas Cowboys released him. If the cornerback clears, he will officially become a free agent. A drastic turn of events from just a couple of seasons ago, when the Cowboys thought Diggs was considered a franchise player.

Plenty of reactions to the news have filtered in through social media, including former Dallas great Dez Bryant . He seems confused by the move and even suggested a potential landing spot for Diggs.

“I don’t understand why the Cowboys let Diggs go,” Bryant said via X. “Watch him f*** around and go to the Eagles. Smh.”

Seeing players crossover between the Cowboys and Eagles is not all too common. The teams are too big of rivals, facing each other twice a year with more than just a normal regular season game on the line. Whether it’s trades or free agency, only 15 players have ever played for both.

More likely than not, Diggs will not play in Week 18 due to the situation. However, if he signs with a team set to compete in the NFL playoffs, there is an opportunity to get out there. Philadelphia has already wrapped up the NFC East and could possibly add some secondary depth if they pleased — at least in Bryant’s eyes.
