Show Notes
The Dallas Cowboys have used the franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens, securing his services for next season at a cost of $28.82 million. Despite being over the salary cap by $56 million, the Cowboys chose this route to keep Pickens off the free agent market. Pickens, who had a breakout season with 93 catches, 1,429 yards, and 9 TDs, is expected to command at least $30 million per year on a long-term deal. Negotiations will intensify before the July 15 deadline to avoid past tensions.
