Dallas Cowboys George Pickens Franchise Tagged, Fans Await Long-Term Deal
The Dallas Cowboys have placed the franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens, who had a breakout season in 2025. The tag secures him for next year at a set price, but fans and analysts question why no long-term deal has been signed yet. The Cowboys have the tightest salary cap space in the league, leading to speculation about owner Jerry Jones stance. Hall of Famer Michael Irvin believes Pickens is waiting for the market to rise, while fake reports may be used as leverage. The team plans to rework contracts to free up cap room, setting the stage for potential offseason moves.
