Trevon Diggs had to swallow another defeat with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8, this time against the San Francisco 49ers on the road. But beyond what happened on the field, Diggs was also seen confronting a reporter face-to-face.
According to a report, a video clearly shows Diggs in a confrontation with a reporter, telling him he “doesn’t know anything about football.” The reporter replied, suggesting they could discuss the topic, but Diggs declined.
The tweet that prompted Trevon Diggs’ reaction after the game was posted by Mike Leslie, a sports anchor at WFAA who frequently covers Dallas Cowboys games. In his post, Leslie commented on a play involving Diggs in the third quarter, writing, “What is Trevon Diggs doing on this play?”
It’s worth noting that Diggs didn’t have a strong performance in the loss to the 49ers. Despite recording 5 total tackles, he wasn’t as effective defensively as expected, and in the play Leslie criticized, Diggs appeared to barely attempt to make contact with 49ers TE Kittle.
Cowboys DB Trevon Diggs confronted a reporter for a tweet he put out about Diggs play: Diggs: “You don’t know football..You can’t do nothing that I do.” Reporter: We could talk about it more. Diggs: “TALK ABOUT DEEZ NUTS.” 😳😳😳
Mike Leslie’s Response to Trevon Diggs
After the video of Trevon Diggs confronting Leslie following the loss circulated, Leslie shared details about the brief exchange, explaining that Diggs had come out of the locker room to address the tweet. According to Leslie, Diggs told him he “doesn’t know football” and “can’t do what he does.” While Leslie agreed with that statement, he noted that Diggs did not explain what he was thinking during the play.
“Trevon just came out of the locker room to approach me about this tweet. He said I don’t know football, and I can’t do what he does. He and I are in agreement about that. He didn’t offer an answer as to what he was doing on the play, however.”
