Former Alabama CB Trevon Diggs is receiving ‘significant’ first-team reps for the Dallas Cowboys, per Ed Werder

He was selected at No. 51 overall in this year’s NFL Draft, and the Dallas Cowboys are happy with him.

Trevon Diggs was a great high school athlete, who had to learn to become a strong defensive back at Alabama. With the mastermind of the position as his head coach, Diggs was a solid cornerback under Nick Saban. He made the full transition to defense in 2018, totaling 20 tackles, six pass breakups and one interception. A foot injury versus Arkansas forced him to the sidelines for the remainder of the year; however, the Maryland native and former four-star in the 2016 signing class bounced back.
