George Pickens has Monster Season in Dallas in Contract Year
In his first year with the Dallas Cowboys in 2025, wide receiver George Pickens had a career year, catching 93 of his 137 targets for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games in his fourth year in the NFL. It earned the 24-year-old former second-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022 his first Pro Bowl nod. Only Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Puka Nacua had more receiving yards than Pickens, and his 93 receptions ranked sixth among all wideouts. Despite CeeDee Lamb's presence, Pickens was Dallas' leading receiver and had the eighth-most targets among all WRs in the NFL. Because of the big year he had for the Cowboys, they will almost certainly keep him around in 2026, via either a long-term extension or franchise tag. Pickens always had high-end talent, but the move to Dallas with quarterback Dak Prescott and a pass-happy offense was the perfect fit. Another big year could be in store in 2026.
