"For the first time in franchise history, the Dallas Cowboys are sending two wide receivers to the Pro Bowl in the same season. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens didn't just post big numbers in 2025. They changed how defenses had to play Dallas every week. Bracketing one meant surrendering to the other, and allowing QB Dak Prescott to find and carve out favorable matchups. There was no safe answer, and that constant pressure is what elevated both receivers into rare air."
"What makes this achievement even more striking is how many elite Cowboys' duos came close but never crossed this line. Michael Irvin and Alvin Harper were pillars of a dynasty, yet never shared Pro Bowl honors in the same season. Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn didn't do it. Owens and Miles Austin didn't do it. Miles Austin and Roy Williams didn't do it."
CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens were both selected to the Pro Bowl in 2025, marking the first time two Cowboys wide receivers earned that honor in the same season. Their presence forced defenses to choose between them, allowing Dak Prescott to find favorable matchups and creating constant pressure that elevated both receivers. The duo stretched the field horizontally and vertically while anchoring one of the league's most efficient passing attacks. Multiple previous Cowboys receiver pairings never achieved dual Pro Bowl selections due to scheme, timing, health, quarterback play, and opportunity. CeeDee Lamb continued his routine excellence in 2025, serving as the engine of the offense and dominating from every alignment.
