The Dallas Cowboys added depth on defense at the NFL trade deadline, picking up defensive tackle Quinnen Williams and linebacker Logan Wilson in trades.
What they didn’t do was add any help at safety, which has been a sore spot for them. The Cowboys have been dealing with injuries at the position all season, even being forced to move cornerback Reddy Steward to safety at one point to get through a game.
While they’re hopeful to get back to full health soon, they were still struggling in coverage even with their original starters. That’s why it was a bit surprising to see them ignore the position at the deadline.
The good news for Dallas is that a potential fix just became available. News broke on Friday that the Tennessee Titans have released veteran Quandre Diggs.
Originally selected by the Detroit Lions in the sixth round of the 2015 NFL daft out of Texas, Diggs has played for three franchises in 11 seasons. He’s appeared in 154 games with 124 starts and made the Pro Bowl three times with the Seattle Seahawks (2020-2022)
