Diggs was an NFL All-Pro by 2021 and is a 2-time Pro Bowler. They drafted cornerback DaRon Bland in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL draft. Bland was an NFL All-Pro in 2023, when he led the NFL with 9 interceptions and tied the NFL single season record with 6 defensive touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s starting to look like rookie cornerback and third round pick Shavon Revel might be next.<\/p>\n<p>Revel has been one of the keys to the Cowboys leveling up on defense \u2014 they\u2019ve won 3 consecutive games since he made his debut in the lineup in Week 11.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">\u201cHe continues to amaze me, man,\u201d Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer\u00a0told The Dallas Morning News reporter Joseph Hoyt. \u201cIt\u2019s so fun to watch him grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">Revel has been thrown directly into the fire in his first 3 games \u2014 including 1 start \u2014 as he\u2019s been on the field for 64 percent of the defensive plays for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">\u201cCowboys rookie CB Shavon Revel Jr. has allowed just five receptions for 61 yards across 89 coverage snaps in the first three games of his NFL career,\u201d The Fort Worth Star Telegram\u2019s Nick Harris wrote on his official X account on December 2.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">Injury Hurt Revel\u2019s Draft Stock Out of ECU<\/h2>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">The Cowboys snagged Revel, 6-foot-2 and 194 pounds, in the third round (No. 76 overall) of the 2025 NFL draft despite the fact he tore his ACL just 6 games into his final college season at East Carolina in 2024.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">Revel was on most mock drafts as a first round pick before his injury, including in Dallas.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">\u201cThe Cowboys considered Revel one of the best corner prospects in the 2025 NFL draft, if not the best,\u201d Hoyt wrote. \u201cIf not for a torn ACL early in his final collegiate season, Revel would\u2019ve likely been taken earlier than the third round, where the Cowboys eventually selected him. In Revel, the Cowboys saw a talented corner who could use his \u2026 height and nearly 80-inch wingspan to excel in press-man coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">Revel Could Change Future Plans on Dallas Defense<\/h2>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">If Revel truly does become a full time starter for the Cowboys \u2014 which he could prove to be by the end of the regular season \u2014 he represents an incredible value on a 4-year, $6.5 million contract.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">Those are the type of savings the Cowboys are praying for at this point, with Diggs constantly injured and in the midst of a nightmarish, 5-year, $97 million contract extension he signed in 2023.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">Diggs has missed 27 games over the last 3 seasons; 15 games in 2023, 6 games in 2024 and another 6 games so far in 2025. This year has been the most concerning because Diggs\u2019 absence started with a concussion suffered in a mysterious accident at his home.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">The Cowboys face the Detroit Lions on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Article - Paragraph links\">\u201cCowboys CB Trevon Diggs had three words to me about the mysterious concussion: At home accident,\u201d Cowboys reporter Clarence Hill Jr. wrote on his official X account on November 30. \u201cHe also said he\u2019s healthy and ready to be himself again.
