US.Dallas Cowboys Star Shocks NFL: “I’m Not Wearing Midnight Green” — Considers Retirement Over Controversial Eagles Trade Attempt!
Dallas, TX – September 29, 2025
The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for a franchise-altering move after weeks of internal tension. With speculation swirling about his future, one of their most polarizing stars has now issued the strongest statement yet.
Team sources confirmed Sunday night that the Cowboys intend to trade their former All-Pro cornerback after his sideline behavior and early exit against Green Bay. The news immediately set off speculation about possible landing spots.
That’s when Trevon Diggs stunned reporters with a vow. “If they trade me to the Eagles, I’ll retire on the spot. I was born in Dallas, and I became a Cowboy here,”Diggs said postgame.
He continued: “I’ve bled blue and silver through every snap, every setback. And I’ll never put on midnight green — not for money, not for snaps, not for anything. Loyalty still means something to me.”
The comments reflect the depth of Dallas’ rivalry with Philadelphia, one of the NFL’s most bitter feuds. For Diggs, wearing Eagles colors isn’t simply unthinkable — it would represent a betrayal of everything he’s stood for.
The 2021 All-Pro led the league in interceptions that season and signed a five-year, $97 million deal in 2023. But declining play, offseason clashes, and recent disciplinary issues pushed Dallas toward a breakup.
Dallas defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus benched Diggs for stretches of Sunday’s game, later stating: “We have a standard here. When players decide they’re bigger than the team, decisions get made for them.”
Now, as agents explore possible trade destinations, AFC contenders in need of secondary help are expected to inquire. One thing is clear: no matter what offers come, Philadelphia won’t be part of Diggs’ future.
