During a training camp session, a video of Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs expressing frustration towards quarterback Dak Prescott gained viral attention.
The incident occurred after an unsuccessful play where Prescott couldn’t advance the offense.
Diggs, in the aftermath, told Prescott to “shut your b—- a– up.”

These remarks reignited the scrutiny Prescott has faced due to Dallas’s lack of success in the playoffs.
Last season, he had the dubious distinction of tying for the most interceptions thrown (17). This incident sparked speculation among fans about potential frustration within the team towards Prescott.
However, Prescott addressed the situation by downplaying it, considering it as “very healthy banter between two teammates.” He emphasized the competitive nature of their relationship, stating that such exchanges are part of sharpening each other’s skills.
