Pickens, Cowboys Haven't Discussed Extension; Free Agency Looms

George Pickens has not yet engaged in contract discussions with the Dallas Cowboys, despite being slated for unrestricted free agency this offseason, per Calvin Watkins. Pickens led the Cowboys in 2025 with 93 receptions, 1,429 yards, and 9 touchdowns on 137 targets over 17 games, outpacing CeeDee Lamb. The team is expected to retain him via franchise tag or extension due to his chemistry with Dak Prescott, but past tumultuous negotiations raise questions if he hits the open market.
