Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs tore his ACL in practice Thursday and is projected to miss the remainder of the season, the team said. Here’s what you need to know:

They should eliminate practices if people are going to get hurt.

Just play the games.

I don’t remember knees being this fragile in the 1970s and 80s. Is it turf?

[vespa300]

I think it’s a combination of faster bigger guys and turf. My opinion. Their cleats literally get stuck in the turf when they go to turn.

Well, when it’s the best guy in the league at a critical skilled position like cornerback......it’s going to be devastating. And it is and will be.

Certainly full on practice. Maybe dial it down a little during practice. This is devastating to the Cowboy’s chances.

The Cowboys have won 5 playoff games in the last 27 years. This is fan abuse!
