Cowboys Skip Pickens Contract, Plan Franchise Tag

0:00On April 30, the Dallas Cowboys are drawing a line with wide receiver George Pickens, skipping long-term contract talks this off-season, and planning. To slap him with the franchise tag instead, speculation is wild right now, with some saying Pickens might hold out through week 10 before signing, though reports point to him inking the deal. Eventually, Cowboys' fans are already on edge, fresh off the Michael Parsons contract drama that soured last off-season, and nobody wants another headache they could, a volmade. Cowboys legend Darren Woodson dropped real talk on a podcast, urging Pickens to play out the tag-year, bet on himself, and keep showing up with the gum. Right attitude like he did last season. Pickens' turn heads in 2025 was strong production and better behavior, shifting how teams see him, and repeating that could land him a. Massive deal next year, but sitting out only hurts him.
