Cowboys News: Trevon Diggs one of NFLs most important rookies

The Cowboys have a lot of star power, but no newcomer will have as big a burden on them as rookie Trevon Diggs.

The Cowboys had a busy offseason and it left opportunities for players to step into large roles within the team. One of those opportunities lies in the hands of Trevon Diggs, the Cowboys most recent second-round selection. Diggs is part of a secondary that is going to attempt to replace the All-Pro production of Byron Jones, and the young corner has a chance to make an impact in just. is first season. Blake Jarwin is another player with a golden opportunity, as he is now ready to take over the starting tight-end role, and Aldon Smith is trying to make the most of his second chance in the NFL.

Speaking of rotations, the linebacker group for the Cowboys is set up to succeed more than ever before, plus, why an UDFA linebacker could join the Cowboys established group. All that, and more, here are the Cowboys news and notes from May 26, 2020.
