Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs apologized to WFAA reporter Mike Leslie after confronting him outside of the locker room following the team’s 30-24 Week 8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers .
“I shouldn’t have reacted the way I reacted. I apologize for that,” Diggs said at Cowboys practice Wednesday, per ESPN . “Most of it, caught me at the right time.”
Diggs was upset after seeing a social media post from Leslie that seemingly questioned his effort on a second-half reception by George Kittle .
“What is Trevon Diggs doing on this play?” Leslie wrote in a quote tweet on X, formerly Twitter.
Upon seeing the post, Diggs exited Dallas’ locker room and angrily approached Leslie.
“That’s what you took from that?” Diggs said , as seen in a video of the interaction. “Out of that whole play, that’s what you took from that? You don’t know football. You can’t do nothing that I do. You can’t go out there and do nothing. Stay in your lane, buddy. Stop trying me, dog.”
