Cameras caught Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs giving up on a play and making what we like to call “a business decision” during Sunday’s ugly loss at home to the Detroit Lions.

Trevon Diggs and the Cowboys suffered a humiliating 47-9 loss to Jared Goff and the visiting Lions at AT&T Stadium in Week 6. Dallas is now 0-3 in home games this season, allowing 119 points over those contests.

Jared Goff picked apart Mike Zimmer’s defense for 315 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. The David Montgomery-led rushing game also racked up 184 yards and two touchdowns on 36 carries.

It was an all-around embarrassing effort by the Cowboys on Sunday. And this clip of Trevon Diggs making a “business decision” by refusing to try and tackle Montgomery sums up the game pretty well for Dallas:


That simply isn’t excusable for an All-Pro cornerback who signed a five-year extension worth $97 million last year. Diggs is a leader of this defense, and regardless of the score and point of the game, you just never want to give up on a routine play like a tackle attempt.

Trevon Diggs is a renowned ball-hawker, but he only has one interception and three pass breakups over the Cowboys’ first six contests this season. Obviously, it’s nothing close to the player who recorded at least three interceptions and 14-plus pass breakups every year from 2020 to 2022.

Trevon Diggs & Cowboys Defense Has Plenty Of Work Ahead

The Cowboys were without All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland, superstar linebacker Micah Parsons and stalwart defensive tackle DeMarcus Lawrence in Sunday’s loss to the Lions, yes.

But a club with Super Bowl aspirations like Dallas can’t use injuries as an excuse. They still have plenty of talent on defense, and players like Trevon Diggs have to step up and fill the void (the way Bland did last year when Diggs got injured) when others are out.

VIDEO: Jerry Jones Had An Interesting Four-Word Reaction To The Dallas Cowboys Being Blown Out On His Birthday

Jerry Jones did not have a good birthday.

When AT&T Stadium was built, Jerry Jones had a clear long-term vision for the stadium and the Dallas Cowboys, and so far, the team has yet to deliver on it.

On Sunday, the Dallas Cowboys owner was forced to watch as his team was embarrassed on their home field as the Detroit Lions marched into AT&T Stadium and served a whooping to the Cowboys.

Jerry Jones wasn’t pleased in the aftermath.

Jones, who turned 82 years old on Sunday, said after the game, “This was a shocker.”


When asked about the 47–9 defeat, Jones called his team’s performance “very concerning” and “very humbling.”

Dallas has struggled this year, but never have they struggled as badly at home as they have in 2024.

Jerry Jones is finding no comfort at home as the team has lost its first three games at AT&T stadium.

The loss on Sunday was particularly bad. The blowout against the Lions was tied for the fifth-largest margin of defeat in franchise history and the team’s worst loss since 2010.

The Lions dismantled the Cowboys in every facet of the game.

Luckily, the team has a much-needed bye week.

Unfortunately, they will return in Week Eight on the road against the San Francisco 49ers at Levi’s Stadium.

Jerry Jones Speaks On Possibly Firing Head Coach Mike McCarthy

The Dallas Cowboys suffered an embarrassing 47-9 defeat on Sunday, leaving many questioning Mike McCarthy’s job security going forward.

Dallas didn’t find the end zone all game long, as they settled for just three field goals.

After the matchup, Jones was asked about making a coaching change.

“I’m not considering that,” Jones said in the locker room after the game.
