The Dallas Cowboys’ already rough defense took an unexpected hit Friday because of an at-home injury.

Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs suffered an “accident” at home that landed him in concussion protocol, head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday.

The injury will force Diggs to miss Dallas’ game Sunday against its NFC East rival, the Washington Commanders.

Schottenheimer said the accident occurred Thursday night, less than 72 hours before kickoff.

It has been a nightmare season for the Cowboys defensively, as they have allowed the most yards per game (411.7) and the second-most points (30.7) in the league.
