  "account": "The Seattle Seahawks have bolstered their cornerback position by signing star CB Trevon Diggs on Wednesday. Diggs, one of the top free agents this summer, has been a reliable performer throughout his career. Although his 2025 season with the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers was lackluster, as he failed to record an interception or pass breakup for the first time in his career, his past performance suggests he will continue to contribute to the Seahawks' defense. Diggs previously led the NFL in interceptions in 2021, setting a high bar for his abilities. Last season, he allowed more yards per target and completion than in previous years, but his track record of recording at least two interceptions and 11 passes defended in most of his seasons makes him a valuable asset for Seattle. With Shemar Jean-Charles sidelined, Diggs is expected to become one of Seattle's top two backups at cornerback.",
  "summary": "Trevon Diggs had a down year in 2025, but is a veteran that is still capable of helping the Seahawks vie for another Super Bowl win next season.",
