Seahawks sign Trevon Diggs, fans adjust expectations for cornerback
Summary

The Seattle Seahawks have signed veteran cornerback Trevon Diggs, previously an All-Pro. However, his recent performance has prompted fans to temper their expectations. After a promising return in 2024, Diggs faced setbacks, including a season-ending injury and concussion issues, leading to his release from the Cowboys. He had brief stints with the Green Bay Packers before joining the Seahawks, who are looking for depth behind Devon Witherspoon and Josh Jobe. Diggs may serve as insurance for the team's cornerback situation if the signing of Terrion Arnold does not finalize due to legal issues.
