Cowboys’ Trevon Diggs apologizes to reporter for heated confrontation over social media post after loss to 49ers

By Ryan Young

The Dallas Cowboys cornerback and the WFAA reporter cleared the air on Wednesday after a heated confrontation outside the locker room at Levi’s Stadium following the team’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.

And, naturally, Diggs showed up with a special gift for Leslie to help put the incident behind them.

Diggs, shortly after the 49ers beat the Cowboys 30-24 on Sunday night, came out of the locker room to confront Leslie over a post he published on social media during the game. Diggs must’ve seen the post almost immediately upon entering the locker room, as he was still in his pads when he stormed out.

The issue stemmed from a big reception by 49ers tight end George Kittle during the game. Diggs, who was defending elsewhere on the play, didn’t seem to notice Kittle and inadvertently cleared a path for him to the 1-yard line.
