Cowboys’ Trevon Diggs doubles down on heated interaction with reporter: ‘Completely wrong’

James Jones explains why the Dallas Cowboys are finished after a 30-24 Week 8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Dallas Cowboys defensive back Trevon Diggs said he let his emotions "get the best of me" when he confronted a reporter over a social media post in a contentious interaction following Sunday’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers. 

Diggs lashed out at WFAA’s Mike Leslie over a post Leslie made questioning the football star’s performance in a play that resulted in George Kittle running the ball within inches of the end zone in the third quarter.

Seeing the post before entering the locker room, Diggs confronted Leslie.

"That’s what you took from that?" Diggs asked. "Out of that whole play, that’s what you took from that? You don’t know football. You can’t do nothing that I do. You can’t go out there and do nothing. Stay in your lane, buddy. Stop trying me, dawg."

Diggs doubled down on his take during an appearance on teammate Micah Parsons’ podcast, but admitted that he let his emotions take over in the moment. 

"I just felt like it was unnecessary. Felt like he was trying to use my name for clicks," Diggs explained. "After the game I just happened to see [the post], I looked and I clicked on it and seen who it was and I was like ‘Oh he’s right here. I just saw you.’ So I went up to him and I just spoke how I felt."
