Seahawks Sign Two-Time Pro Bowl CB

The Seattle Seahawks have bolstered their defense by signing two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs to a one-year contract, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Diggs, who is 27 years old, began the 2025 season with the Dallas Cowboys but was subsequently released due to lingering concussion symptoms. He was then signed by the Green Bay Packers off waivers and featured in two games during the final weeks of the regular season and the Wild Card game, tallying three total tackles.

However, the Packers also released Diggs following the season, allowing him to join the Seahawks, his third NFL team.

Diggs' career trajectory has been rather surprising. He was selected as the 51st overall pick in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft and rapidly became one of the league's top cornerbacks. Between 2020 and 2025, he amassed 240 tackles, a sack, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, 63 pass deflections, 20 interceptions, and two touchdowns. However, injuries have taken their toll, diminishing his performance since then.

Despite the setbacks, Diggs is not expected to be the primary player in Seattle's secondary. He will be joining an established unit comprising cornerbacks Devon Witherspoon and Josh Jobe, and safeties Nick Emmanwori and Ty Okada. Diggs is originally from Gaithersburg, Maryland, and played college football at Alabama from 2016 to 2019, where he recorded 68 tackles, two forced fumbles, 17 pass deflections, four interceptions, and one touchdown.
