Mtp.BREAKING: Dez Bryant pitches George Pickens on signing contract extension with Dallas Cowboys…

For the first time in a few weeks, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens shared the field. Results remained about the same, though, as the Dallas Cowboys offense rolled against the Washington Commanders. A sight we are getting used to seeing, no matter which receivers are out there.

But even with all of the current success, questions about the future remain. Pickens is a free agent at the end of the year after being traded over from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Plenty in Dallas want Pickens to remain, including former star Dez Bryant.

“Let’s get George now,” Bryant said Sunday on 105.3 The Fan. “Let’s wrap him up now. Like, at the end of the day, why not? He loves being here. At the end of the day, I think he loves it… I would tell George, straight up. ‘I guarantee you, brother, it won’t be like this nowhere else. You & CeeDee, you guys are dynamic. Stay together, grow together, go into the HOF together. Dak (Prescott), CeeDee, George.’ It’s beautiful. I can see that.”

Pickens is setting himself up for a nice payday, no matter which team provides the contract. Sunday broke a five-game streak of having a touchdown but he still got 82 yards and four receptions. Multiple penalties were drawn due to Pickens too, putting the Cowboys in great position.

In total, the yardage sits at 607 yards through seven games played. Pickens has six touchdowns on the season and is averaging 16.9 yards per catch. It’s on pace to be a record campaign in almost every major category for a wide receiver. Exactly what you want during a contract year.

As of Monday, Pickens has a market value of over $145 million over five years per Spotrac. This would put him just under $30 million a year and among the highest-paid in football. Lamb recently signed a mega extension of his own, meaning the Cowboys would have a ton of resources invested into two wide receivers.

“I wouldn’t mind it,” Pickens said when asked if he would re-sign with Dallas. “The guys in the locker room are super cool, the energy is great. I always want to showcase my talents.”

For now, all attention for the Cowboys is on the upcoming game against the Denver Broncos. They are hoping the high-powered offense travels well into the Mile High City when facing off vs. one of the NFL’s top defenses.

He’s demonstrated that success is not just about physical ability but also about mental toughness and the willingness to continue pushing forward, no matter what the scoreboard says.

Looking Ahead

With a season still ahead, Geno Smith’s words remind us that every game is an opportunity to improve. The Seahawks, under Smith’s leadership, are not backing down from the challenge. As Smith continues to focus on growth, both individually and as a team, he remains confident that success will follow.

“I believe that if we don’t stop working hard, the results will come,” Smith concluded. His resolve to keep pushing, even in the face of adversity, embodies the very essence of what it takes to be a leader in the NFL.
