The Cowboys “will deduct $500,000 from [Trevon] Diggs’ $9 million base salary for his failure to complete at least 84% of his offseason workouts.”
Per The Dallas Morning News’ Calvin Watkins, “club officials had the option of not enforcing the clause in the contract,” but chose to do so anyway. Diggs reportedly has issues with the Cowboys’ internal staff and chose to rehab on his own, in Miami, after having damaged cartilage replaced with a tissue graft earlier this offseason. Perhaps, this $500,000 sum is the key figure needed to sign Micah Parsons to a record-setting extension.
