Trevon Diggs is ramping back from injury and could anchor Dallas' secondary as Bland is out and Thomas is limited. His role may dictate the Cowboys' pass defense ceiling, with strong implications for fantasy points if he sees primary coverage duties early.

Diggs moves outside to start as Bland is inactive, elevating his fantasy upside on the boundary while Elam handles the other outside spot and Steward/Childress vie for nickel duties.

Bland’s injury opens more snaps for Diggs, elevating his fantasy floor and weekly upside. Diggs could see heavier mounting targets and more playmaking chances as DAL adjusts its secondary depth, impacting IDP and defensive fantasy outputs.

Diggs must anchor the secondary in Bland’s absence, inheriting extra responsibility against top Giants targets and future tests when Bland is sidelined. Diggs’ ball-hawking ability could translate into fantasy-friendly production, especially if Dallas prioritizes tight coverage and allows him to direct more on-field plays.

Diggs is ramping up after January knee surgery, possibly seeing more Week 2 action as Bland misses time. His role could expand in sub-packages, increasing tackle and pressure opportunities while Dallas tests depth at corner.
