No preseason is going to hurt all but maybe a handful of rookies.
The Cowboys lost veteran and former first-round pick Byron Jones to free agency in the 2020 offseason, but their cap situation and other in-house free agents dictated that they would have to find Jones’ replacement in the 2020 NFL Draft.
While Jones came into the league with positional versatility and did both safety and corner for the Cowboys, among other things, Diggs is coming into the NFL on a direct path as an outside cornerback.
