"The Dallas Cowboys' decision to trade for George Pickens drew mixed reviews. On the one hand, the wide receiver's talent and potential were undeniable. On the other hand, there were multiple worrisome reports about his demeanor and character, and after watching him get involved in multiple fights and throw tantrums on and off the field, there were concerns about how he'd handle a potential contract extension."
""When you got a tandem, two guys that could be great, they kind of feed off each other in everything they do. That's going to the lunch room at the same time, catching jugs at the same time, tossing the ball around at the same time. We kind of do everything together. He's kind of a brother," Pickens said of Lamb."
George Pickens entered Dallas amid praise for talent and worry over past behavioral incidents, including fights and tantrums. Performance with the Cowboys has been productive for Dak Prescott while Pickens has shown maturity accepting a secondary role behind CeeDee Lamb. Pickens and Lamb have developed a close, complementary bond in routines and practice. No contract extension has been granted yet, and owner Jerry Jones' typical business approach suggests negotiations could be delayed or protracted. The Cowboys' more creative offense and Pickens' adjusted approach indicate significant long-term upside for the tandem.
