Signing a  like two-time Pro Bowl cornerback did on Tuesday is a reason to celebrate for both the franchise and Diggs himself. The two sides came to an agreement on a deal that provides Diggs an average-per-year salary of $19.4 million, tied for the fifth-highest in the among cornerbacks with Pro Bowler . However, his attention is already turned toward the next progre sion in his career: becoming of the NFL's unquestioned, best corners."At the end of the day, you've still got to go out there and perform," Diggs said Wednesday, via, when asked about his new deal. "My main goal is to stay consistent and keep building on my career and try to put together a good resume where  Charles Haley Jersey at the end of the day, I'll go down as one of the best DBs to play the game." His head coach Mike McCarthy expre sed a little bit more excitement about securing the prime years of his soon-to-be 25-year-old cornerback (Sept. 20), lauding the contract as a win for both Diggs and Jerry Jones' draft-and-develop team-building approach."It's good all the way around," McCarthy Wednesday when asked about Diggs signing his new contract extension before the first training camp practice. "I'm excited for him and his family, what that means for his financial future. For us here at the Dallas Cowboys, the timing is great. Second contracts are such an important part of the draft-and-develop method. When you're  Trey Sermon Jersey able to get your young guys done, it's all in front of us. I was excited to see that happen."  McCarthy has plenty of reason to be fired up because no one has more interceptions (17) than Diggs since he entered the NFL in 2020 , thanks to a 2021 season in which he led the league with 11. However, those takeaways came at the opportunity cost of also leading the league in pa sing yards allowed (2,362) and surrendering the third-most pa sing touchdowns (16) as the primary defender in coverage in the span of his career acro s the last three seasons. Those are areas the Cowboys would like to see tightened up, even at the expense of potential interceptions down the line"We always talk about taking the next step and what the definition of that next step looks like," McCarthy said. "I think clearly if you look at our defense as a whole, when you lead the league in a category like takeaways 34 in 2021 and 33 in 2022 as we have the last two years ... he's Diggs a big part of that too. It's the ability to play with a higher level of discipline and know his opportunities are probably going to be le s. How can he can contribute in the other aspects of defense? Just keep taking that next step."Fortunately for Diggs, he has the chance to evolve as cornerback alongside a teammate who has reached the top of the NFL's cornerback mountain: five-time Pro Bowler and 2019 Defensive Player of the Year Gilmore. The Cowboys acquired the 32-year-old champion, entering the final year of his current contract, from the in March in exchange for a fifth-round pick. Diggs has already looked to maximize every ounce of Gilmore's knowledge.  "You can see the excitement from Day 1 when we signed him Gilmore , and the Solomon Thomas Jersey  next day in the weight room, those two Diggs and Gilmore were in there working out," McCarthy said. "I think the first impre sion of Gilmore is impact. Not just for Trevon but for all of us. To bring that veteran leadership and the pelts that he has on the wall. You can see the impact that it had on the locker room, and it started on Day 1 with Trevon."Gilmore's habits have already started to become Diggs' by osmosis. Especially the little things like diet and sleep, the ones that can be the difference between a player at their position, one heavily reliant on athleticism, having a five-year career Trey Lance Jersey  versus an 11-year career like Gilmore has."I feel like he's just very profe sional, just how he goes about his work, it's like rubbed off on me," Diggs said Wednesday, via . "He's waking up at 6 o'clock every day. So now I want to wake up at 6 o'clock every day, and go get a workout with him and do all the little stuff like that. He eats perfect. He doesn't eat foolishne s. He has seen me eating gummy snacks and he'll be like, 'Why are you eating that?' Little things like that, him just taking me under his wing and just showing me how to last in the league that long. I'm just taking notes and soaking everything up, and I'm very appreciative for it."   Gilmore himself said his me sage to Diggs is simple: keep working in order to maximize his sky-high potential."They pay you because you've been playing good football, so just keep doing what you've been doing," Gilmore said Wednesday, via . "Make plays on the ball and try to get better each and every year.  He's super talented. He has great ball skills. Some of the stuff he does you can't teach. He's got a natural instinct for catching the ball. He can cover really pretty much anybody. It's gonna be fun.  Kyle Juszczyk Jersey They gotta throw it somewhere. So, you know one of us is going to get tested. We just have to be ready for wherever they throw it. Looking forward to it." Diggs' self-awarene s and Gilmore's teachings have made one thing clear: the new contract is not the finish line for Diggs. It's step on his next path, the one to superstardom.  "Hell no, I'm just starting," Diggs said when asked if he feels much accomplishment after signing his new contract. "I want to be flawle s all the way around and just try to be perfect, and just be one of the best DBs in the NFL."
