Dallas Cowboys Debut George Pickens in First OTA Practice

The Dallas Cowboys have begun their 2025 offseason with the addition of wide receiver George Pickens, acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers in a trade that has excited quarterback Dak Prescott and team leadership. Pickens, known for his size and playmaking ability, has quickly integrated into the team's offense, practicing alongside key receivers CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert during organized team activities (OTAs). Coach Brian Schottenheimer and players have emphasized that Pickens and Lamb are both viewed as top-tier receivers, complementing each other rather than fitting into traditional No. 1 and No. 2 roles. Prescott, recovering from a hamstring injury, is optimistic about the offense's potential with Pickens joining the group, which is seen as a significant upgrade since Amari Cooper's departure. The Cowboys are aiming to reset their culture and improve on a disappointing previous season, with Schottenheimer leading the charge in his first offseason as head coach. Early practices have shown promising chemistry among the receivers and a renewed sense of optimism for the upcoming season.
