His latest reporting fills in the most important missing piece.Trevon Diggs Contract: $2 Million Incentives Come With Specific BenchmarksAccording to Henderson, up to $1 million is available based on Diggs’ share of Seattle’s defensive snaps.The playing-time incentives are non-cumulative:$500,000 for reaching 42% of the defensive snaps$750,000 for reaching 50%$1 million for reaching 60%Another $1 million is available based on interceptions, also on a non-cumulative basis:$500,000 for three interceptions$750,000 for five$1 million for seven“Non-cumulative” means Diggs would earn only the highest tier he reaches within each category rather than stacking every level.The two categories, however, give him separate paths to additional money.For example, if Diggs plays 50% of Seattle’s defensive snaps and records five interceptions, he would earn $750,000 from each category — $1.5 million in incentives — and bring his total compensation to $2.715 million.Getting all the way to $3.215 million would require both 60% participation and seven interceptions.Those are meaningful hurdles for a player trying to reestablish himself after several injury-interrupted seasons.Seahawks Put Money Behind Diggs’ Biggest QuestionsThe structure of the contract almost reads like a checklist of what Seattle needs Diggs to prove.First comes availability.Diggs tore his ACL in 2023 and has had his playing time disrupted by injuries since then. He appeared in nine regular-season games in 2025 between Dallas and Green Bay and did not record an interception. He has 20 career interceptions overall.Diggs told reporters after signing with Seattle that this was his first offseason in years spent training rather than rehabilitating an injury
