Show Notes
The Dallas Cowboys plan to use the franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens for the 2026 season, aiming to secure him for another year. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer expresses his desire for Pickens to stay long-term, highlighting the players competitive spirit and passion for the game. The team is prepared to pay Pickens around $29 million on the tag, following recent extensions for CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott. Pickens and his representatives seek a multi-year contract, potentially causing tension if it leads to a better deal in Dallas or elsewhere. The Cowboys decision to trade Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers after delaying his extension suggests they may consider other options if negotiations fail, keeping the offseason intriguing.
