Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs underwent surgery to repair his torn ACL this week, ESPN reported Wednesday.
Diggs, who had the operation on Tuesday, is now set for a 2024 return after doctors found that his other knee ligaments were intact, per the report.
Diggs sustained the injury during a Sept. 21 practice.
Signed to a five-year, $97 million contract extension this summer, Diggs recorded four tackles, an interception and a forced fumble in two games this season.
Diggs, 25, led the NFL with 11 interceptions in 2021. The two-time Pro Bowl selection has 18 picks — including two returned for touchdowns — to go along with 173 tackles in 47 career games (46 starts) since being selected by Dallas in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
