Who has become the bigger star in 2021? Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs or his 4-year-old son Aaiden?

Diggs leads the NFL with seven interceptions but his son became something of a star during the Cowboys’ Hard Knocks series last summer. Multiple episodes of the HBO series featured moments with Diggs and his son, including a hilariously cute scene when Aaiden Diggs met quarterback Dak Prescott in an ice cream shop.

Before the Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders, CBS Sports, which was airing the game, posted a video of Aaiden offering Thanksgiving wishes to everyone, especially to all of the quarterback who keep throwing passes his dad’s way.

“I want to give thanks to all of the quarterbacks who throw my dad the football,” Diggs said.

The video has more than 550,000 views on Twitter in less than five hours.
