George Pickens Attends Dallas Cowboys Minicamp
The receiver attended his first offseason practice on a $27.3 million franchise tag while contract talks for a long-term deal remain on hold.
- On Tuesday, star wide receiver George Pickens arrived at The Star for the start of mandatory minicamp, ending his absence from the Dallas Cowboys' voluntary offseason program.
- Dallas placed Pickens on the franchise tag earlier this offseason, guaranteeing him $27.3 million for the upcoming year while allowing him to follow up his breakout campaign on a "prove-it deal."
- Last season, Pickens earned his first Pro Bowl nod after finishing with 93 receptions, 1,429 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns.
- Coach Brian Schottenheimer confirmed Pickens will participate only in individual drills to avoid soft tissue injuries, joking that the receiver took the role of "Coach Pickens" on his first day.
- Team drills for Pickens will wait until the Cowboys kick off training camp in Oxnard later this month, as the organization prioritizes a cautious ramp-up period.
