The Dallas Cowboys are facing challenges in signing wide receiver George Pickens, who is anticipated to play under the franchise tag this season. After successfully signing kicker Brandon Aubrey, the Cowboys hoped to secure Pickens, but Adam Schefter reported that negotiations are at a standstill. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones expressed excitement about Pickens' contributions, stating, "We're so fired up to have George on this football team," highlighting the player’s progress since joining the team. However, the situation mirrors last year's contract issues with linebacker Micah Parsons, raising concerns about a potential repeat of history. As of now, the Cowboys remain committed to retaining Pickens, but the lack of movement in negotiations leaves fans questioning the future.
