Show Notes
The Dallas Cowboys have secured wide receiver George Pickens for the 2026 season by using the franchise tag, a one-year deal estimated at $28 million. This move allows the Cowboys to maintain leverage in negotiations and protects them from losing Pickens without committing to a long-term contract. The non-exclusive tag enables other teams to approach Pickens during free agency, but the Cowboys have the option to match any offer or receive two first-round draft picks as compensation. This strategic move keeps the Cowboys offense stable heading into the offseason.
