Although nothing official yet, the Dallas Cowboys reportedly have secured a deal to trade with Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens.
Cowboys trading for George Pickens
The Dallas Cowboys are finally getting a WR 2 alongside Cede Deelam, and the new offensive duo could be a majestic pairing for years to come.
George Pickens is one of the league’s most dangerous receivers and although he is known to fight on and off the field, he has been consistently productive during his three years in the NFL.
Last year, the Pickens enjoyed perhaps the best campaign they’ve ever had, as they recorded 900 receiving yards and three touchdowns in just 14 regular season games.
The young wide receiver is entering the final year of his rookie contract, and the Cowboys are reportedly interested in signing the 24-year-old since the end of last year.

Dallas was miserable last season, but primarily due to injuries, as the lamb was forced to carry the crime after Duck Prescott picked up a nasty hamstring injury in week 8.
Prescott has recovered for over six months and from early footage of his practice it appears that the Cowboys QB has lost many of the weights ready for his comeback.

Pickens’ contracts and salaries are not yet general knowledge, as the contracts have not yet been official.
The Steelers took over the iconic WR duo
Steelers fans get tired of them as the Pickens leave Pittsburgh just three months before the new season begins, as they are taken away from a new receiver duo that may have been particularly special.
DK Metcalf was traded for the Steelers from Seattle in one of the biggest moves of the offseason, but shortly after his arrival he lost both his quarterback (Russell Wilson & Justin Field) and his new wide receiver partner.
Pittsburgh drafted the quarterback this year, but it wasn’t one of the big names to enter the league as he missed the opportunity to sign Chedur Sanders in favor of Pick Will Howard for the 185th from Ohio.
